Group personal trainingGroup personal training is certainly on the rise and will continue to be the trend in 2010. The trend is likely connected to the economic times because the sessions are much less expensive than the one on one approach. much more and much more gyms are popping up with the one area of specialty. A franchise with this focus called get In shape for women is said to go nationwide in 2010.

ExergamingThis is the term being used for programs like Wii fit and EA Sports. Both systems have recently come out with upgrades. Nintento has recently added Your shape to the mix. I like that fact that Your shape requires no hand held device. I’m still not a huge fan of working out to a video game. Still, numerous people like this approach, and if it gets them off the couch, then I fully support Exergaming.

Functional training workoutsThis is a trend toward using strength training to improve balance and ease of daily living. These workouts tend to be back-to-basics classes focused on making the body strong for sports as well as day-to-day activities. some of the most recent releases from Jillian Michaels follow this trend.

Core trainingDifferent from strength training, this type of training specifically emphasizes conditioning of the middle-body muscles, including the pelvis, lower back, hips and abdomen – all of which offer needed support for the spine.
