A new study has found that running and biking were 2014's hottest fitness trends.
Data from 47 million users of MyFitnessPal, a website and smartphone app that lets users track activities, calories and food intake, also showed that people were trying out new activities, like CrossFit and ballet-style barre classes, and were also increasingly doing shorter, high-intensity workouts that promised fitness in minutes rather than hours, Fox News reported.
The researchers for the app, which released year-over-year trend data publicly for the very first time, analyzed the total number of minutes logged per activity and divided by the number of daily active users.
Further, at the request of The Wall Street Journal, MyFitnessPal then listed the top 10 most-logged activities for January through November 2014 and compared the list with the same period from 2013.
