Top Fitness Trends Of 2025

1.  Team sports and studio-based workouts are trendy.  19% of people who work out regularly expect to participate in team sports this year, up from 11% in 2020.  Studio-based workouts like yoga and spin classes are up three points.

2.  Personal trainers are still popular, but trending down.  21% said they’d worked with a health or wellness coach recently, down from 25% last year.  But that’s still higher than 18% in 2023.  They’re great, but also expensive.

3.  More people at your gym will be on Ozempic.  The poll found people on weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy tend to prefer working out in a gym.  They’re less likely to exercise at home or outdoors.

4.  Turning your workout into a game is more popular.  That means things like Apple Watch challenges and Fitbit badges.  8% “always” gamify their work out, up from 6%.  Another 16% said sometimes, up four points.

5. Engaging in self-care is an important step in fitness routines. 

Self-care has become a big part of fitness routines, with practices such as cold plunges and post-workout recovery methods gaining widespread popularity. Others may enjoy walking outside or enjoying their favorite food for their cheat day.
