The Program
Following our 2025 fitness trends series, we’re diving into outdoor workouts, the fresh-air revolution taking over parks and trails. With 60% of Brits hitting nature weekly and a £5 billion UK market, per a 2024 Outdoor Industry Association report, it’s clear indoor gyms are losing ground. Outdoor sessions cut stress by 28% more than indoors, and feature exercises like hill sprints and bodyweight circuits. Read on for our top sportswear recommendations.
Following our pickleball deep dive, we’re tackling the pickleball vs. padel debate lighting up courts and X feeds. Pickleball, born in 1965, mixes tennis and badminton on a 20x44-foot open court with solid paddles and a perforated ball, thriving on strategy and accessibility. Padel, a 1969 Mexican creation, blends tennis and squash on a 33x66-foot walled court, using thicker racquets and a softer tennis ball for dynamic, wall-bouncing rallies. With 19.8 million pickleball players and 25 million padel enthusiasts globally, both sports are booming.
Building on our 2025 fitness trends spotlight, we’re diving into High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), the calorie-torching, time-efficient workout dominating gyms and parks. Born in the 2010s, HIIT’s short bursts of intense exercise like burpees and sprints keep it a global favourite, with 35% of gym-goers choosing it. Outdoor sessions and virtual classes are surging. Athletes need moisture-wicking, stretchy gear to crush circuits without chafing or slipping. Stoiqs' London-crafted, sustainable sportswear delivers, with durable, eco-friendly fabrics and minimalist designs, making it the go-to for HIIT warriors in 2025.

With around 40 million players worldwide in 2024 and courts multiplying, pickleball’s here to stay.
