What else is new in fitness and health for 2010?  Craig Ballantyne shares his predictions for New Year health.
In Part 1, you learned about the future of fitness programs for kettlebells and cardio, and how vegetarian eating will be known as the diet of the year, But is there anything new in the world of ab training or circuit workouts?  And what will be the best new equipment of the year?  Get ready for the rest of the top 10 fitness predictions for 2010.

Trend #6

More trainers will create 5, 6 and even 7-day per week programs—even me!


Whoa, whoa, whoa!  Programs that run seven days per week?  How could you ever create a 7-day per week workout program?  Let me explain.

First, these programs won’t include seven hard workouts per week.  Rather, they will tell you what to do on off days as well as during workouts.  So instead of creating articles, books and programs that just give you three workouts per week and leave you to your own devices for the rest of the days, trainers will now be giving you the exact stretching, recovery and off-day activity plans for a complete 7-day program.  Talking with P90X creator, Tony Horton, really gave me a lot of ideas for this new system and you’ll see other top trainers giving you a complete day-by-day schedule for workouts.

Trend #7

Metabolic resistance training will be the training buzzword of the year.


Weight training circuits, Turbulence Training, Afterburn Training—all of these have been known for years, but more and more often we’ll see the phrase, metabolic resistance training (MRT) used to describe this broad field of training.  Of course, that also means that MRT will be defined differently by almost every trainer, leading to some confusion among fitness readers.

However, on the bright side, we’ll see more fun, exciting, challenging and super-effective metabolic resistance training programs hit the scene next year, giving you a ton of options for a fat burning, body-sculpting workout.  If you love these types of workouts, 2010 is going to be a dream come true for you.
