In fact, wearable technology is the top fitness trend for 2022, according to a survey of 4,500 health and fitness professionals by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM). The ACSM released the survey results today in the article “Worldwide Survey of Fitness Trends for 2022,” published in the January/February issue of ACSM’s Health & Fitness Journal. According to the ACSM past President Walter R. Thompson “Tech advances have made it easy for users to collect important health metrics and work with fitness professionals and health care providers to develop healthy lifestyles and increase the quality of life.”He knows what he’s talking about; last year wearable technology was in second position, and has ballooned into a full fitness and wellness revolution as of 2022, with devices such as fitness trackers, smart-watches, and heart rate monitors dominating the market.
For Michael Snyder, Ph.D., a genetics professor at the Stanford School of Medicine in California researches wearable tech and smart-watches and he believes wearable tech will continue to dominate in 2022. “The wearable space is growing quite rapidly,” Dr. Snyder says.

The fitness revolution happening before our eyes is rapidly developing into a futurist blending of human data and technology, empowering people to be the best versions of themselves, a new type of superhero conquering a better future.
