Lack of physical activity has emerged as a considerable public health concern worldwide. Recent advancements in fitness technologies in the past ten years provide novel prospects to encourage physical activity and combat increasing levels of sedentary lifestyles, obesity, and related chronic illnesses. This paper examines the empirical evidence on the potential advantages, restrictions, and optimal practices pertaining to three predominant trends in fitness technology: wearable gadgets, artificial intelligence platforms, and social media. Wearable activity monitors demonstrate potential to boost physical activity engagement and enhance certain health indicators, however their precision and long-standing compliance appear inconsistent. Preliminary evidence indicates artificial intelligence holds promise for individualized fitness instruction and tracking via conversational agents, albeit necessitating further substantiation. Social media and fitness influencers can galvanize their followers, but concerns remain regarding promotion of unrealistic body ideals. Overall, these technologies exhibit promise to facilitate more accessible, personalized and social fitness participation if consciously implemented based on scientific findings. Further interdisciplinary investigation is imperative to optimize these burgeoning innovations equitably and ethically, so as to best promote global population health and wellness.
