Sunday Survey Results
85% of survey respondents work out at least four times a week, with 56% doing 4-5 workouts in a typical week. This statistic would be helpful to compare with people who need to travel to a gym. Nevertheless, those answering these surveys are working out quite a bit.
Last week, 52% said they have purchased gym equipment from a retail store. This week, 86% said they have purchased something for their home gym online and 53% on Amazon.
40% plan on going to a gym after they and others receive a vaccine. That’s not much higher than the 30% last week who said they are already going to a gym other than their “home gym.”
Which one? GHD or Reverse Hyper? 63% said GHD.
Only 12% are more likely to buy a barbell because of a cool name.
Which one are you choosing if you could only have 1 – an Air Bike, Rower, Stationary Bike, or Treadmill? A rower and air bike made up about 2/3 votes, with the Rower (36%) being the winner. The stationary bike came in last with about 11% of votes.
Level of Interest in Premium J-Cups? More said that they did not know what J-Cups were than voted “High.” Overall, there is moderate interest, with the highest vote-getter being “Medium.”
There was slightly higher interest in “Premium Barbell Clips/Collars” than J-Hooks, and a lot more knew what they were.
Most are watching very little or no TV when working out. 61% voted never, and only 11% are watching more than half of the time.
That is all! Thanks for the participation! These insights are extremely interesting and being used by others to advance the industry.
