With the start of a new year, it’s the perfect time to focus on your fitness ambitions. Dubai, known for its extensive range of health and wellness initiatives, is the ideal city to begin your fitness journey.

As more people adopt the fitness lifestyle, creating a personalized workout routine has become crucial for maintaining a healthy, balanced life.

From traditional fitness activities to high-intensity workouts, here are some of the top trends you can incorporate into your 2025 routine, brought to you by GRAZIA.

Indoor Cycling

Indoor cycling, also called spinning, has taken over social media as one of the most popular fitness trends.

This full-body exercise is high-energy and immersive, providing an adrenaline rush that floods your system with endorphins, keeping you motivated and stress-free.

On top of that, it thoroughly engages your muscles, making it a highly effective workout. Dubai’s MOTION, an indoor cycling boutique, specializes in this dynamic and exciting fitness option.

Barre

Want more than just a workout? A 50-minute barre session not only sculpts your body but also enhances your posture and strengthens your mind-body connection holistically.

At Dubai’s Barre Effect, founded by Nora Hameidani, music-driven sessions help you build muscle, boost your metabolism, and refresh your mind. This well-rounded routine is easy to implement into your lifestyle.

Padel

Enjoy Dubai’s cooler months by heading outdoors for a padel game.

This moderate-intensity sport offers numerous benefits, from boosting agility to toning muscles while providing a great way to de-stress. Looking for the best venue?

Check out the Matcha Club—it’s the perfect place to enjoy this fun and social workout.

Lifting

Build leg strength and sculpt your lower body with focused lifting exercises. Specifically, Romanian deadlifts are hailed as a game-changer.

Recommended by FitnGlam—frequented by none other than Naomi Campbell—this workout is key for anyone looking to enhance their lower-body strength and endurance.

Hatha Yoga

For a slower, more gentle workout in 2025, try Hatha yoga. This form of yoga helps improve physical coordination, build strength, expand lung capacity, and reduce stress.

It’s a perfect way to balance the mind and body. Talise Spa at Balloons at the Palace, Jumeirah Al Qasr, now offers guided Hatha yoga classes for AED 350 per person, every Saturday from 8 AM to 10 AM.

Your session even ends with a delicious breakfast!

Kangoo Jumps

Looking to combine cardio with core strengthening in a unique way?

Kangoo jumps might just be the workout for you. Using rebound shoes, this activity helps improve endurance and strengthen core muscles, including arms, legs, thighs, hips, and the abdomen.

Rixos The Palm is the place to visit for this fun and effective workout.

Mini Trampoline

Also known as rebounding, trampoline workouts are a fresh take on aerobic exercises. Starting gradually, rebounding helps tone your core, stimulate your lymphatic system, and burn calories.

This low-impact, joint-friendly exercise is also an excellent choice for improving cardiovascular health.

Fitness First offers a thoughtfully curated trampoline workout routine for fitness enthusiasts looking for something new.

Whether you’re seeking high-intensity programs or more mindful exercises, Dubai’s fitness scene has something for everyone.

Start 2025 with these innovative workouts, and watch as they not only boost your physical health but also enhance your overall well-being.
