Instead of fretting over that low-maintenance workout routine, consider yourself a trendsetter. Good old fashioned strength training and functional body-weight training are projected to be two of the top fitness trends of 2013, according to a recent survey released by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM).
In the seventh annual ACSM survey, 3,346 international health and fitness professional ranked thirty-seven emerging trends in fitness. Their votes culminated in a list of the top 20 fitness trends of 2013and heres a roundup of the top 10 to consider as you set some goals for the new year:
1. Educated, Certified, and Experienced Fitness Professionals: Holding on to the no. 1 spot for the last six years, this is a trend that shows no signs of stopping. According to the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), jobs for fitness workers are expected to increase much faster than the average for all occupations [through 2020]. In fact, the BLS projects a 29 percent increase in the workforce from 2010 to 2020.
2. Strength Training: Strength training is holding strong (pardon the pun!) in the no. 2 position for the second year in a row. Most health and fitness professionals today incorporate some form of strength training into a comprehensive exercise routine for their clients and for patients with stable diseases.
3. Body Weight Training: Appearing for the first time in the trend survey, body weight training has only recently gained popularity in gyms around the world, although its been around for centuries as a form of resistance training. A fat loss review can help you produce a clear summarize of what you require to focus on to complete your fat burning target if you're a novice; or serve as a reminder for those who are at an advanced or more enhance step of their weight-loss plan. Promptly after are seven steps that can serve as tips for your personal weight loss system. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same. Many weight loss courses have misled people into wondering that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss programs only work by resulting in a person's body to lose more muscle cells and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. And because it often uses minimal equipment, its an inexpensive way to exercise effectively.
4. Children and Obesity: Health and fitness practitioners see childhood obesity as an opportunity to positively influence a health issue that not only immediately impacts the health care industry, but also has an even greater effect on the health of these children as they mature into adults and have families of their own.
5. Exercise and Weight Loss: This has been a growing trend since the survey began, as the combination of exercise and diet is essential for weight loss maintenance and can improve compliance to caloric restriction diets and in particular weight loss programs.
6. Fitness Programs for Older Adults: As Baby Boomers age into retirement (and because they may have more discretionary money than their younger counterparts), smart fitness clubs will capitalize on this exponentially growing market by providing age-appropriate exercise programs.
7. Personal Training: Although there have been some minor variations of personal training (e.g., small groups as opposed to one-on-one), many people believe that personal trainers will continue to be an important part of the professional staff of health and fitness centers.
8. Functional Fitness: Defined as using strength training to improve balance, coordination, force, power and endurance to improve the ability to perform activities of daily living, functional fitness programs better prepare people to tackle real-life activities.
9. Core Training: Exercising the core muscles improves overall stability of the trunk, which transfers to the extremities, enabling people to not only meet the demands of activities of daily living, but also perform better in various sports that require strength, speed, and agility.
10. Group Personal Training: Training two or three people at the same time in a small group seems to make good economic sense for both the trainer and the client.
Whats out for 2013?
Falling out of the top 20 fitness trends this year was spinning (indoor cycling), sport-specific training (regimens for your athletes), and physician referrals (partnerships resulting in seamless referrals between health and fitness professionals).
Are there any other fitness trends you hope will fall by the wayside for next year?
