2008 Sports and Fitness Participation Report

2008

2008 Sports and Fitness Participation Report

Strength, conditioning, and aerobic activities. Those types of fitness pursuits are inspiring millions of Americans to perspire these days. According to the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association’s (SGMA) Sports & Fitness Participation Report (2008 edition), there are two trends driving this trend: (1) increases in health/fitness club memberships and (2) strong interest in home gyms. In 1990, just over 20 million Americans were members of health clubs and now that number is well over 40 million. As for home gyms, more than 25 million Americans use home gyms and millions more work out on individual fitness machines located in their homes.
