Did you smash your fitness goals for 2024, or did they end up being non-existent? Either way, don't worry! The New Year is just around the corner and with it comes a chance to reset, re-focus and put some new challenges in place.
But, what does 2025 entail for the world of health and fitness? Is there a new fitness race on the horizon? Is there a supplement everyone's obsessed with? What type of training is set to dominate? We spoke to leading experts in the industry to see how the upcoming year is likely to play out…
We may have included HYROX in our 2024 trend predictions, but it shows no signs of slowing down. The functional fitness race— consisting of eight workout stations interspersed with one-kilometre runs— has seen participation rates grow over 100% yearly for the past three years. Will it be as successful for a fourth? Most probably. As a result, expect more functional fitness races to crop up throughout the year too.
Fitness trackers and smartwatches will become even more sophisticated, offering personalised recovery plans using biometrics and AI analysis. "Wearable devices will monitor factors like muscle fatigue, hydration levels, and sleep quality, providing tailored recovery advice," says Dick. "There's a shift from hustle culture to a greater understanding of the importance of recovery to generate optimal results and performance. This will be intertwined with the biohacking/longevity trend as recovery options continue to expand."
Red light therapy isn't exactly new but, according to BON CHARGE Founder, Andy Mant, it'll become even more mainstream as people turn to non-invasive at-home recovery. "We see it being a major trend in 2025 due to its proven benefits for improving skin appearance, faster recovery post-exercise, supporting weight management goals, and overall wellness."
