We’re half way through January 2019 and by now you’ve probably set your sights on some pretty epic fitness goals for the new year. But, rather than getting fit by hitting the gym in the same old traditional way, it may be time to try a different approach. New types of exercise and fitness trends are popping up every day and 2019 is sure to bring with it a host of new, and fun, ways to sweat. Here are just 5 fitness trends to look out for in 2019.<\/p>\n

1. A renewed focus on recovery<\/h4>\n

This year, taking the time to recover is just as important as the sweat session itself. While recovery and compression massages are set to become more popular, gym bunnies can also look forward to post-workout recovery tools like foam rollers, steam rooms, saunas and cold plunge tubs becoming more accessible in gyms.<\/p>\n

2. New ways to HIIT it in the gym<\/h4>\n

Love high-intensity training? In 2019 HIIT is set to get even better with all-new HIIT hybrid classes featuring some of your favourite types of workouts in one class. Think\u00a0yoga-HIIT, dance-HIIT, and even boxing-HIIT – all designed to give you a great overall workout that\u2019ll leave you feeling fantastic.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Slowing it down with meditative workouts<\/h4>\n

Those who prefer a more gentle approach to sweating will be thrilled to hear that 2019 will see a big focus placed on\u00a0practicing mindfulness in your daily workouts in order to ensure a good level of mental health. This year you can expect to see\u00a0meditation-based workouts, like guided runs, emerging as training your mind is proven to have a positive impact on other personal aspects of your life.<\/p>\n

4. More home-based workouts<\/h4>\n

Let’s face it; some days you just don’t have time to swing past the gym. Which is why workout streaming has started to become so popular with busy professionals. In 2019, you can expect even more virtual workout options to emerge online, allowing people to stream exercise routines at any hour of the day. Follow a live class during your lunch break at work or in the comfort of your living room, staying fit has never been this easy!<\/p>\n

5. Things get personal<\/h4>\n

This year things get personal in the gym.\u00a0Thanks to health and wellness advancements like metabolic assessments and advanced DNA testing, it\u2019s becoming easier to learn about your individual genes and what this means for your personal fitness. These tests are perfect for anyone who wants to take their fitness to a new level, prevent sports injuries, or better understand how their body operates.<\/p>\n
