Weight lifted, sets and reps performed, range of motion, and calories expended may all be tracked and monitored by the connected machines. It is projected that additional factors, such as expanding consumer spending power and public awareness over cardiovascular diseases, will propel the market toward expansion.

The market for connected gym equipment is developing primarily due to rising smartphone adoption and rising demand for linked gym services. The global adoption of smartphones is rising.
