According to an article in the Huffington Post, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) has ranked the top 20 fitness trends for 2012. A survey was completed by 2,620 ACSM certified fitness professionals. While some things have remained the same, Pilates is off the list for the second year in a row. But let’s take a look at the list… Then help decide if you think Pilates should still be considered a player in the top 20 trends.

ACSM Top 20 Fitness Trends for 2012
ACSM Fitness Trends – Pilates Ranks High for 2010
The American College of Sports Medicine recently published a forecast of fitness trends for 2010, and it’s wonderful to see that Pilates training is near the top of the list!
While Pilates was ranked #9 in the ACSM report, by my assessment of the top ten fitness trends it appears to me that many, if not all, are distinctly related to Pilates training. In fact I can see application of the Pilates system and Pilates principles for whole-body health to every single one of the top trends.
