2020 was the year of\u00a0wearable tech, HIIT, yoga, and group exercise classes and while these trends will continue to soar well into the new decade, 2021 will also bring with it a whole new string of fitness trends.\u00a0Over the last few years, we\u2019ve seen people embrace health and wellness more than ever before, and this year the fitness industry has no signs of slowing down. So\u00a0what can we expect to be the hottest (and sweatiest) workouts for next year? Here are just three fitness trends to look out for in 2021,\u00a0just in time for you to make those fitness New Year\u2019s resolutions.<\/p>\n

Think outside the box<\/del> gym:<\/h3>\n

\"home<\/p>\n

Bored with your daily visit to your local Virgin Active? You’re probably not alone. This year, fitness freaks will be thinking outside the gym. Expect to see the popularity of\u00a0home workouts and\u00a0outdoor activities continue to rise in 2021. The great thing about these types of fitness trends is they are an infinitely more affordable and\u00a0accessible exercise option.\u00a0Between a set of free weights and a great home workout routine,\u00a0you can get all the benefits of a gym workout right in your living room, or local park.<\/p>\n

Stock up on gym essentials for your home and save big on a gym membership this year. Start off slow with an exercise mat, a few free weights, a skipping rope, and an exercise ball before upgrading your workout with a kettlebell or two and maybe a set of core sliders.<\/p>\n

Safety in (small) numbers:<\/h3>\n

\"F45\"<\/p>\n

Another big trend in the fitness industry this year is group training in smaller classes. Forget visiting a packed gym, this year sweating is all about safety in small numbers. Whether it’s HIIT or yoga, training with others in more intimate groups is the next big thing in fitness for the New Year. With group class studios popping all over the place, it’s easier than ever before to take\u00a0advantage of all the benefits that come with a group workout, like more endorphins and greater motivation, and a more controlled environment.<\/p>\n

Of course, if you’re going to be training with a group this year you will need to get kitted out in the best gym gear. Invest in gym clothes and shiny new gym trainers that can keep up with your new-found fitness obsession. Not sure where to start with your new gym wardrobe?

Over-all well-being is tops<\/h3>\n

\"Jessica<\/p>\n

This year, weight loss or appearance-based goals are secondary. What’s taking preference? Overall well-being. In 2021 fitness experts anticipate a shift towards\u00a0health and wellness coaching that emphasises\u00a0a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle that’s functional and leads to both\u00a0mental and physical health rather than weight-loss goals.<\/p>\n

Hiring a personal wellness coach can be expensive, but you don’t need to break the bank to get fit and healthy this year. Invest in a good health and wellness guide like Jessica Sepel’s\u00a0“The Healthy Life” and “Living the Healthy Life” and you’ll have everything you need to start on your journey to a healthier life in the new year.<\/p>\n
