Default Fitness Trends for 2007

I saw this and it reminded me of an earlier thread that mentioned the underground leading the main stream in terms of innovation. There are several slides in this presentation that highlight that point. Read Here

Good read. I love that stuff.

That's more a standard than a trend. I'm a consultant for a living. I have thick skin for the most part.

I like the slide on total body WO's becoming a trend. Not to mention virtual coaches.

I love how total body training was considered underground. LOL

Funny how when someone wakes up to the fact that they can bleed some money out of people, they take things that a lot of us have been doing all along and make it a "trend." Hey, we are trend setters.

Good find, Gabe.

I'm sure Chaney likes the trainer certification trend.

A couple seem more like buzzwords than true trends: "functional" fitness -- as if exercise has no intrinsic benefits?

"Multi-tasking" food -- Sounds like the old dessert topping/floor wax commercial from SNL. Why shouldn't ANYTHING you eat have nutrients?

That's not exactly true. It works, it just doesn't SELL until it gets the buzz word attached to it.

Good read, Gabe. I actually giggled a couple times.
