Market Dynamics

The growing health and fitness-conscious population throughout the world is the prominent factor that is driving the fitness equipment market growth. People all around the world have become more self-aware of the necessity of leading a healthy lifestyle in the last few years. As a result, fitness has become a trend for millions of people, resulting in a rapid expansion of the global fitness industry's size and popularity. Even though the vast majority of people are now more sedentary, an increasing number of people are choosing a more active lifestyle.

Another significant factor that fuels the market growth includes the rising number of the obese population. For instance, according to the WHO, over 650 million adults were obese or overweight in 2016. Among them, more than 1.9 billion adults (39% adults) aged 18 and over were overweight in 2016. In addition to that, people with chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and high blood pressure are advised to begin exercising in order to achieve a healthy lifestyle and lessen the negative effects of their disease on their bodies. These factors are increasing the demand for new gyms and fitness centers, resulting in strong growth potential for the fitness equipment industry.

However, the high costs of this equipment are making low and middle-income populations reluctant to purchase them. Thus, it is creating a roadblock to widespread growth, especially in emerging economies. The rising demand for the resale of used fitness equipment is also one of the restraining factors for the market growth. Furthermore, increasing government initiatives to promote a healthier lifestyle is expected to create numerous growth prospects for the industry in the coming years. For instance, to 'revive' sports culture and infrastructure in India, the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports amalgamated three schemes — the National Sports Talent Search Scheme, Urban Sports Infrastructure Scheme, and the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Abhiyan — into the Khelo India Movement in 2016. This initiative has raised significant awareness about fitness among the youth in India, eventually driving them to join fitness clubs, sports clubs, and gyms.
