The Global Online/Virtual Fitness Market Expected To Reach $250.7 Billion By 2032

Palm Beach, FL – June 12, 2023 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – The global online/virtual fitness market has shown substantial growth over the past few years and is expected to continue for years to come. The COVID-19 outbreak had a positive impact on the growth of the online or virtual fitness market due to the imposition of lockdowns led to the closure of many fitness centers and gyms. As a result, in-person workouts were replaced by digital at-home exercises. In addition, owing to the increasing demand for online classes, many gyms and health club providers adopted online services. In the coming years, health club providers will be required to adopt a hybrid or multichannel approach which will include both in-person and remote exercise sessions for the customers.  Online or virtual workout is next generation fitness revolution. It is a convenience-based fitness/wellness service to the clients to access a trainer or instructor online instead of visiting the fitness facility.  Usually, the training videos that are provided on the online dashboard or fitness app are managed by the instructor. The sensors in smartphones and wearable allow various virtual fitness applications such as sleep monitoring and running rhythm tracking to improve users’ life styles and health.  The various forms of online or virtual fitness offerings enable accessibility of health & wellness to every individual from shift workers to the housewives, and any person who may not keen or able to visit the gym.   A report from Allied Market Research projected that the global online/virtual fitness market was valued at $14.9 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach $250.7 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 32.7% from 2023 to 2032.  Active Companies from around the markets with current developments this week include:  Interactive Strength Inc. d/b/a FORME (NASDAQ: TRNR), SIGNA Sports United N.V. (NYSE: SSU), Xponential Fitness (NYSE: XPOF), Lifetime Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ: LCUT), Nautilus, Inc. (NYSE: NLS).

 

The report said: “Rise in need for advanced fitness sessions to achieve physical fitness, growth in interest of health insurance providers in online/virtual fitness services to reduce health insurances costs, increase in demand for healthy foods, lack of time to attend training sessions at fitness institutes, and surge in demand for AR & VR based fitness boost the growth of the global online/virtual fitness market.  In addition, shutdown of gyms and studios due to ongoing COVID-19 pandemic situation has positively impacted the growth of the online/virtual fitness market. However, no real interaction with the instructor and interruption in the flow of the class due to tech glitches hampers the online/virtual fitness market growth. On the contrary, growth in popularity of online fitness programs among elderly is expected to offer remunerative opportunities for expansion of the online/virtual fitness market during the forecast period (2032).”
