Remember the early 1980\u2019s home workout VHS tapes featuring instructors in tight, bright-colored bodysuits and head-bands? Yes, that\u2019s virtual fitness in its most early form. Simply put, a fusion of technology and exercise! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, a plethora of new technological innovations, such as fitness apps, online platforms and wearables, have changed the way we exercise and relate to fitness on a daily basis. As a result, the fitness industry has undergone a huge transformation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new era of fitness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Virtual fitness has experienced a tremendous 300% upsurge in popularity during the past few years at gyms and fitness studios. And, it’s expected to double by the end of 2020!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Virtual fitness has undoubtedly become the new normal! Why? Because of the invaluable flexibility and freedom it provides its user with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Convenient access to fitness content from large screens has found it’s place in exercisers’ hearts. More recently, also workout apps with pre-recorded or live-streamed classes have become a common part of the gyms’ service offering<\/a>, increasingly so since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Virtual complements your services and boosts attendance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Worried about virtual fitness competing with live fitness classes? Think again. Virtual classes actually boost live class attendance!<\/strong> In other words, virtual class is an ideal complement to live classes. Ultimately, for the service operator, it’s an effortless way to pay less but offer more that keeps customers happy and coming back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the study made by the New Zealand fitness giant Les Mills<\/a>, 75% of virtual fitness users also attend live class. It often serves as a low-threshold entry to live class for the many who feel uncomfortable about their physique, fitness level or about exercising in group or in public, in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, it’s a great way of reaching new customer segments. Take shift workers, students and frequent business travelers for example; people with busy and irregular schedules, or tight budgets. They might not be able to or even interested in attending workout classes during rush hour. For them, virtual offers a flexible and affordable workout alternative, without the trouble of sticking to a fixed routine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
