Exercising is always under great concern when keeping fitness. Following are 7 popular types of training which hit the headlines in 2018.
Fitness trends have observed a considerable increase in both quantity and quality in 2018. Not only do fitness enthusiasts exercise the traditional methods, but they also experience some new yet highly effective ones. As the year-ending is coming close, fitness experts Sapna Khanna and Puranjay Jadeja shared a list of 7 most popular workout trends that hit the headlines during the year.
1- Bodyweight training
It is among the most common types of training due to its convenience when requiring no equipment and being available anytime anywhere. Should you have spare time, it can be done right at parks, at home, or even at your workplace. The idea of bodyweight fitness is based on strength training which uses the individual's own weight to provide resistance against gravity. Therefore, exercisers can obtain cardiovascular and muscular benefits at the same time. Movements such as pushing up, sitting up are some bodyweight exercises that almost everybody acknowledges.
2- BOSU ball workout
This practice of keeping fitness is quite new, yet it has gained great popularity across the nation. A BOSU ball has a flat surface on one side and a rubber dome on the other, which makes it look like an unstable seesaw. Consequently, the seem-to-be simple workout of staying balanced on the equipment may be a hard nut to crack. However, thanks to this exercise, the body's balance, flexibility, etc., can be significantly improved.
3- Suspension training
This may be an unfamiliar term to hear as it has just gained recognition this year. Suspension training uses a system of ropes and webbing called a "suspension trainer" to help users work against their own body weight. The type of training barely require much space, yet compound and complex movements can still be performed. Regular fitness enthusiasts can improve their physical health, balance, flexibility, and joint stability after practicing.
4- Obstacle course training
5- Mixed Martial Arts and Boxing
6- HIIT (high-intensity interval training)
7- Dance workout
