Fitness trends are ever-changing, and while some can seem downright weird \u2013 like the punk rock workouts of New York City that happen in clubs and involve breaking for shots \u2013 others can be really creative ways to spice up your routine. Here are the top five hottest trends in fitness right now; will you find your match?<\/p>\n

Budokon yoga:<\/strong> You\u2019ve heard of Budokon karate, you\u2019ve heard of yoga<\/a>… but Budokon yoga? The marriage of martial arts and the art of Om have joined forces in gyms from Montreal to Miami, where martial art moves like strikes and kicks are interspersed with slow movements like sun salutations and warrior poses. Burn up to 900 calories an hour with a workout that invites you to let loose with imitations of animal movements \u2013 prowl like a lion, why don\u2019t you! \u2013 and leaps \u00e0 la Jet Li.<\/p>\n

Circus:<\/strong> They\u2019re big in Auckland and in Chicago \u2013 circus workouts involve bouncing on a trampoline, trapeze tricks, silk band choreographies, and partner balancing acts. They\u2019ll work every muscle in your body as you develop your flexibility and balance, and burn calories galore (up to 375 per hour). Imagine the trip of putting on your own show!<\/p>\n

Taiko:<\/strong> Keep the beat while sitting in an incline non-stop for an hour \u2013 we\u2019ll see how hard your core works! Taiko is traditional Japanese drumming, whose posture and movements resemble martial arts in the idea that the heart of one\u2019s power is the hara (the stomach). Don\u2019t worry though, it also trains the legs, arms, back, abs, shoulders, triceps \u2013 and eardrums! (You may want to bring earplugs.) You can burn up to 500 calories an hour.<\/p>\n

Hula hoop:<\/strong> It\u2019s no surprise that this trend keeps on gaining popularity everywhere from L.A. to Toronto \u2013 it\u2019s ridiculously fun. Harkening back to your schoolyard and pigtail days, hula hoop classes are half dance, half insane core workout. Real pros use weighted hoops, making the path to a six-pack even shorter! Prepare to sweat as you burn up to 400 calories per hour.<\/p>\n

Qi Gong:<\/strong> Qi Gong, which translates as \u201cLife Energy Cultivation\u201d, is a martial art that boasts healing properties, thanks to a unique mix of breathing exercises, movements, and meditation. Its main focus is to allow the smooth flow of chi through the body and mind, which, in our overly busy lives, promises a rare opportunity to stop and breathe \u2013 and burn about 300 calories an hour, while we\u2019re at it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
