How fitness has evolved in the last year


Like many things in the last 12 months, change and uncertainty has been at the forefront of most of our lives, something we can all relate too. COVID-19 has transformed the way we think, act, live, socialise and much more. With restrictions and lockdowns constantly starting and stopping, it might be difficult to find a routine that suits this new everchanging lifestyle we are all living with.

Fitness as we know it has also evolved in the past year. Society has seen a shift from collaborative group classes in gyms like Anytime Fitness Glen Waverley, to home workouts or a socially distanced walk in the park. A rise in on-demand content, fitness apps and zoom style classes shows that consumers are wanting to work out where they want, when they want. Consumers expect fitness to fit around them, not the other way around. However, whilst 2020 saw a rise in demand for on-demand content, it also demonstrated what on-demand cannot deliver where a gym can. And that is the motivation and support that comes from working out in real time. FLOE is Australia’s newest online gym. Integrating live two-way video technology with premium home gym equipment, to fit into your lifestyle and home.

It is clear that there is a rise in demand for home gym equipment. With the expectation of being able to workout where and when it suits, many people are looking for fitness equipment to bring into their home. However when its not integrated with fitness programming that can be offered in a gym by way of coaching or classes, it can be redundant, misused and unsafe. FLOE has recognized the need for incorporating gym equipment, and therefore offers the FLOE Gym – an all in one stylish home gym that teams together with live workouts to delivery a truly integrated workout experience.The combination of a stylish all-in-one home gym with access to real-time live training programs is a world first.  FLOE provides all the motivation and accountability you want from a genuine gym experience where the instructors know your name, plus the convenience of working out from home with a beautifully designed home gym that packs down into a minimalist piece of furniture.

The past year, the fitness industry has shown a growing interest and need for slower and more controlled workouts, focusing on the strengthening of our minds and souls. FLOE understands that whilst some people prefer high paced HIT and cardio classes, as a result of this new global pandemic world we live in there is a growing demand for relaxation and meditation. It’s why FLOE offers a broad range of workouts – we know the benefit of getting the heart rate up with a HIIT cardio session is just as important as taking time to connect mind and body through a restorative Yoga practice.

Although it might seem difficult to stay motived whilst in lockdown or living with restrictions, fitness and keeping active should remain in all of our lives. Fitness is not only physical health, it is intrinsically connected to mental health and our overall wellbeing.
