European Health and Fitness Market Dynamics:
Growth Drivers: One of the most important factors impacting the health and fitness market is the growing fitness club membership penetration rate. People are getting more aware that exercise improves energy levels, decreases medical expenses, and likely increases longevity. In addition to this, people can also expect mental health improvements and more energy on a daily basis. Because of this, fitness has become a trend for millions of people, leading to a rapid increase in the fitness penetration rate. Despite the fact that the vast majority of people now live more sedentary lives, an increasing number of individuals are opting for a more proactive lifestyle. Furthermore, the market has been growing over the past few years, due to factors such as favorable demographic changes, the rise of lifestyle-related illnesses, an increasing number of social media users, growing personal disposable income, increasing obesity, and an increasingly health-conscious audience, etc.

Challenges: However, the market has been confronted with some challenges specifically, lack of skilled and professional trainers, the high cost of setting up a club, etc.

Trends: The market is projected to grow at a fast pace during the forecast period, due to various latest trends such as the increasing adoption of virtual reality in training, growing use of fitness wearables, the evolution of hybrid gym memberships, technological advancements, etc.
There is an increase in gyms offering hybrid memberships. Many traditional gyms are noticing that members want to have the option to work out either online or in-person. A hybrid gym offers the best of both worlds and includes a combination of in-person and online workout options. For example, a gym may offer in-person exercise classes that are also live-streamed or available on-demand for members who want to continue with home workouts. On the other hand, hybrid gyms help to reach more people. Therefore, the growing trend of market hybrid gym memberships is expected to propel market growth in the coming years.

Impact Analysis of COVID-19 and Way Forward:
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the European health and fitness market in the year 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic caused governments to enforce multiple lockdown across Europe. This led to the most clubs being closed due to COVID-19 restrictions for at least a few months throughout the year. This marked a significant decline in the European health and fitness market in 2020, clearly pandemic driven. COVID-19 has accelerated the adoption of a hybrid model of online/in-person workouts that more brick-and-mortar gyms are likely to retain when the pandemic recedes. Moreover, fitness innovations are accelerated in response to COVID-19 constraints. More cutting-edge virtual and real-world experiences, including holographic technologies, are anticipated in the near future. Therefore, as the innovations increases, the market is expected to experience growth in the post-COVID era.

Competitive Landscape:
The European health and fitness market is highly fragmented. Fitness club operators in general compete on the basis of flexibility and prices of the membership model, location of the clubs, brand recognition, quality, and the overall variety of the product offering and the training equipment. The key players of the global health and fitness market are:
• Basic-Fit
• PureGym
• SATS Group
• Virgin Group Ltd. (Virgin Active)
• RSG Group GmbH
• The Gym Group PLC
• David Lloyd Leisure
• FitX
• Fitness First
• Clever Fit
• Alex Fitness
• Keep Cool
• VivaGym Group

Considering the high degree of fragmentation and high competition pressurizing smaller players who lack the necessary scale to compete on pricing, the market is ripe for consolidation. This has been the case for a few years already with a merger and acquisition (M&A) in the European health and fitness market having increased from 16 in 2020 to 19 in 2021. On the other hand, the increased polarization and differentiation among operators in recent years has been a result of the rapid expansions of the number of fitness clubs, particularly budget clubs. For instance, in 2021, the number of clubs operated by Basic-Fit increases to 1,015 from 905 clubs in 2020.
