Die Fitnessbranche ist im Wandel. Vorangetrieben von den Herausforderungen der Corona-Pandemie, bestimmen Digitalisierung, sich verändernde Kundenbedürfnisse und ein gesundheitsorientiertes Verständnis von Fitness und Wellness den Markt. Wie die Branche diesen Veränderungen erfolgreich begegnen und sie sogar vorantreiben kann, zeigt das European Health & Fitness Forum. Nach dem Erfolg der ausverkauften Veranstaltung im letzten Jahr laden EuropeActive und die FIBO Spitzenvertreter der internationalen Fitnessindustrie am 12. April erneut zum Gipfeltreffen in das Congress-Centrum Nord ein. Bereits zum 10. Mal findet das EHFF im Vorfeld der FIBO statt und bildet den Startschuss für Business, Networking und Weiterbildung auf Top-Niveau.

From exercise and relaxation programmes to bicycle leasing, there is a wide range of services that are beneficial to health. Of course, more and more companies are also offering fruit baskets and free drinks. But is that a sustainable solution? Probably not.

EGYM shows three very different studio concepts ranging from premium, personal optimised to a physiotherapeutic practice with a prescription-independent area.

Whether it's during sport or in our often hectic everyday lives, the valuable phase of rest often falls by the wayside!  While we routinely plug our smartphone into the charger in the evening so that we can use it the next day, we expect our body and mind to be constantly ready to function and work. But why we also need to recharge our batteries and what ideal regeneration looks like so that you can maintain your mental and physical performance into old age, you can find out here!
