The Priceless Good Living Supplement sponsored by TO TRY OR NOT TO TRY Sarah Maxwell gives her opinions of the fitness trends for 2024 istockphoto.com/dima_sidelnikov Welcome to 2024, where the future of health, fitness and wellbeing is filled with inventive technology, sustainability and a much greater emphasis on our mental health. So, if your health, wellbeing and fitness is on your priority list for this January, let’s hit the ground running and look at some exciting new trends you can look forward to this coming year. All change at the gym Fitness providers across the board are waking up to the importance of including holistic health* into their programs and recognising the undeniable connection between physical and mental health. Fitness centres are increasingly providing mindfulness and meditation classes alongside the traditional weight training and HIIT classes. *Science is now backing up many holistic practices that were often disregarded. Wearable tech (Smart watches, clothing and even smart jewellery to monitor your health) Love or hate them, they’re here to stay! Pros include goal setting, activity tracking, accountability, progress recording and syncing with other devices and apps to have all of your data in one place. Cons include the battery life, which can let you down at the wrong moment, security issues and the potential to develop anxiety and obsessive monitoring. Sustainable fashion More fitness and leisure brands are offering eco-friendly workout gear made from organic cotton – grown without fertilisers or synthetic pesticides – or recycled polyester! Due to my long-time love affair with second hand/vintage clothing, this certainly ticks my eco box. Take a look at wearetala.com and sosactivewear.com. Hybrid training Prior to the pandemic, many people were reluctant to exercise online (many instructors too). Now the emphasis is on a mix of in-person and online fitness, with rapid advances in technology and availability making it more accessible than ever. By combining in-person and online coaching, now you can look after your health, fitness and wellbeing wherever you are in the world and take your pick from a huge pool of experts worldwide. Virtual training (VR) The rise of virtual reality workouts, gamification and immersive training is rapidly gaining popularity. Workouts and wellbeing sessions in a virtual world has enormous potential. Headsets are currently cumbersome (no doubt these will change to be tiny devices in the future) and tracking of limbs is still not brilliant, however. I have to admit, I love VR (I’m charging mine as I write this). Virtual Reality fitness and wellbeing is still in its infancy but progressing rapidly. It can be isolating but it’s advancing so quickly, the hope is that more multiplayer activities will be developed so social interaction evolves. We all need to connect with others, and understandably VR won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but for many it will be a lifeline to keep active and engaged. If you get the chance give it a go – it’s magic! Inclusive fitness Inclusivity has finally now become an important topic in the world of fitness. Gone are the days when you plucked up the courage to walk into a gym for the first time, signed up to a group class and felt intimidated – where exercise was reserved for a select few who could afford it or were physically able to keep up with others. Adaptive fitness programs – for example, provision for the elderly and specialised support for people with disabilities – is starting to become the norm rather than the exception. The barriers have now been broken down, enabling everyone to participate in and benefit from a welcoming, supportive fitness community that embraces all. This year, why not start experimenting and finding what makes you feel good, recalling that famous advert, ‘Because you’re worth it!’ Happy New Year!
