As another year rolls around, there are plenty of fitness trends that we should leave behind in 2024. Not all trends that become popular are worth trying. In 2024, there was a buzz surrounding trends like wall Pilates and 12-3-30 that have since fizzled out. As we welcome 2025, we’re wondering what’s next. What will boom, and what will fade in 2025? Let’s look at the data on the most popular fitness trends predicted to skyrocket in 2025 and the ones we think are more than just hype. 

New data

  • Remote personal training saw a huge 414% spike in interest this last year, and it’s predicted to continue booming into the new year.
  • Hyrox is predicted to be the second biggest in 2025, following a 233% increase in interest. For over two years, Hyrox has remained a worthy contender, staying in the top five trending workouts on Pure Gym’s Fitness Report.
  • TikTok is still one of the most influential platforms, with the 30-30-30 rule being one of the most popular examples.  
  • Quadrobics also ranks among the top five for 2025 with a 174% increase. ‘Primal fitness’ also made it in the top 20.
  • Step aerobics saw a 124% increase.
  • Interest in rollerblading climbed by 123%.

Positive patterns

This data highlights positive patterns. We can see that people are prioritizing different types of exercise and activities to make their workout routines more fun and interesting. Not only will you target more muscle groups and get better results with a more diverse training routine, but you’ll also be more likely to stay motivated to work out. Trying out primal fitness, rollerblading, or Hyrox means you’re challenging yourself and aren’t stuck in the same mundane routine. Traditional workouts like going running and using the rowing machine will remain timeless, but it’s good news to see that people are willing to explore and venture out.

The spike in interest in remote personal training is also a good sign that people are seeking guidance and input from professionals to further amplify their health and fitness. The digital age has brought us the convenience and benefits of quality coaching from the comfort and privacy of home.

Does drinking a protein shake after training build muscle? Here’s the science
When's the best time to gulp down your protein shake?

Research continues to reveal how increasing your protein intake can help you build muscle. Protein plays an important role in muscle synthesis and provides the building blocks or amino acids needed for building and repairing muscle tissue. That being said, when we dive into the details or nuances here, some powerlifters start asking questions like: when is the best time to drink my protein shake? Will I boost my muscle-building results if I drink my protein shake right after training? Let’s look at the research.
The timing of protein intake

Researchers concluded that the timing of protein intake immediately after resistance training doesn’t impact muscle strength, power, or body composition changes. In other words, drinking your protein shake right after that workout won’t give you an extra boost compared to drinking it some other time. However, drinking your protein shake right before your workout could lead to digestive upset.
