In this report, we look closely at three aspects of wellthness related to living well: Fitness classes: Young consumers in particular are seeking aspirational, social experiences in their fitness regimes.

Wearables: Consumers in the 20–29 and 30–39 age groups are the most likely to use wearable technology to track their fitness.
