Abstract

Online fitness is now a useful addition to traditional club fitness or as an emergency. The factors contributing to the transition of fitness club clients to the digital format of training are the lack of time, geographical or financial inaccessibility, as well as objective circumstances, which have recently manifested themselves in the form of forced self-isolation provoked by the coronavirus pandemic. Thus, we can conclude that today there is no threat of declining popularity of traditional fitness. At the same time, in the short and medium term, it will significantly change towards digitalization. This circumstance, in our opinion, can give a new impetus to the development of the fitness industry and the influx of a larger number of people who are engaged due to a synergistic effect.
