Health Fitness and Nutrition Trends

Here are some health, fitness and nutrition trends we're likely to see in 2016.  Body Weight Training where we return to the old staples.... push ups, chin ups, dips, lunges, planks, will all become the most prevalent fitness trend.

Functional Strength Training.  There will be an increased emphasis on improving our aging population's functional strength by developing and/or maintaining the ability to continue easily performing life's everyday tasks such as,  getting into and out of a car; carrying groceries, etc.

Stand Up Work Stations.  Not only does standing burn more calories than sitting, the Mayo Clinic says it decreases a cluster of conditions that includes increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist and abnormal cholesterol levels.
