The Newest and Coolest Fitness Trends in NYC
Living in NYC means a lot of things; access to great food, even better fashion, museums, bars, clubs, a melting pot of different people from all over the world is thrown together on this one small island we all call home. We literally have it all at our fingertips and can access almost anything at any given time. Yes, we are New Yorkers.
When it comes to our workouts, New Yorkers are pretty bougie. Let’s face it- we’re spoiled in the sense that we always have a plethora of workouts to always choose from and are usually the first people who are introduced to the latest and hottest fitness trends. There are literally ENDLESS ways for us to get our workouts in and we love being the first to try out the latest trends to get our sweat on.
With summer finally here, I am highlighting a few of the newest and coolest fitness trends currently in NYC you may want to try.

Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is very effective for muscle repair, reduction of chronic pain, inflammation, and an overall enhancement of health and wellness. The process involves exposing individuals to extremely cold dry air (below −100 °C) for two to four minutes. To achieve the subzero temperatures, two methods are typically used: liquid nitrogen and refrigerated cold air. It can be intense but people come out feeling energized. Some benefits of cryotherapy include:
- Pain relief and muscle healing
- Weight Loss
- Reduced inflammation
- Preventing dementia.
- Preventing and treating cancer
- Reducing anxiety and depression
- Improving symptoms of eczema
- Treating Migraine Headaches
