The global fitness platforms for disabled market size is estimated to reach USD 11.10 billion by 2030, registering to grow at a CAGR of 22.2% from 2025 to 2030 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Individuals of different age groups and demographics are likely to use fitness platforms and apps for different applications. For instance, disabled adults aged 18-64 years are likely to use these platforms for exercise and weight loss compared to the general geriatric population, which is likely to use them for diet and nutrition. The effectiveness and adoption of fitness platforms among people with disabilities have led to increased investments in the fitness industry. For instance, in May 2019, Future Fitness announced that it has received USD 8.5 million in Series A funding led by Kleiner Perkins, an American venture capital firm.
Moreover, the introduction of modern technologies, such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and augmented reality, in the health and fitness space has revolutionized this industry. These technologies have changed the way individuals with disability exercise at home instead of visiting rehabilitation centers, gyms, and health clubs to keep themselves fit and healthy. Modern fitness platforms are offering all modes, including meditation, aerobics, yoga, Zumba, assisted exercises, and strength training. The growing popularity and increasing adoption of fitness platforms among people with disabilities worldwide are among the key factors boosting investments in the market.
In addition, the development of wearable technology for disabled people/individuals with disabilities is further translatable to the aging population. For instance, a GPS-enabled smart device aiding people with visual impairment in navigating the streets might help adults in monitoring their parents with dementia. Thus, there is a potential opportunity for upcoming innovators and startups to launch technology and products in virtual fitness that prove to be financially successful and beneficial for the physical well-being of people with disabilities.
