New year, new fitness goals. Luckily, Dubai is a city filled with a myriad of health and wellness concepts.

With many embracing the fitness era, curating the right workout routine becomes all the more essential for achieving a balanced, healthy lifestyle.

From classic workouts to HIIT regimes, GRAZIA brings you the top workouts you can add to your routine in 2025.

Indoor Cycling

Indoor cycling, also known as spinning, has been all the rage on social media. The full-body workout experience is not only immersive but the high-energy routine releases adrenaline that boosts your endorphins. Better yet, the workout also helps in reducing stress while engaging your muscles. Dubai’s very own indoor cycling boutique, MOTION, specialises in this fun yet intense workout.

barre

A 50-minute barre workout won’t just leave your body sculpted. This easy-to-implement routine will improve your posture and your mind and body connection holistically. At Dubai’s Barre Effect, founded by Nora Hameidani, the barre exercise emphasises music-inclined sessions to help build the body, enhance metabolism and overall refresh your mind.

Padel

With Dubai’s cooler climes, this means you can fully embrace the outdoors for a padel game session in the next few months. This medium-intensity sport has numerous benefits for the fitness girls. From improving your agility to toning your muscles and topping it as the perfect way to unwind your mind. The place to head to? None other than the Matcha Club.

Lifting

For those aiming to build their leg strength, lifting is the go-to workout. But not just any lifting. According to Naomi Campbell-approved gym, FitnGlam, Romanian deadlifts are the game changer exercise to sculpting your lower body.

Hatha Yoga

Gentle and slow, Hatha yoga needs to be in your list of less intense exercises for 2025. If you’re looking for a routine that improves physical coordination, strength, and your lungs, this form of yoga perfectly targets these areas all the while reducing your mind-body stress. The Talise Spa at Balloons at the Palace, Jumeirah Al Qasr, just launched their guided classes for Dhs350 per person, every Saturday between 8am to 10am which also includes a hearty breakfast to complete the session.

Kangoo Jumps

For a unique core-strengthening workout, opt for the Kangoo jump which tackles your much-needed cardio with a pair of rebound shoes. This workout, available at Rixos The Palm, aims to improve your endurance, and firm your core muscles: from arms, legs, thighs, hips and the abdomen.

mini Trampoline

A trampoline workout, which is also known as rebounding, is a different take on aerobic exercises. Best to start with gradual sessions, rebounding can help with toning your core, boost your lymphatic system, and burn calories. The low-impact workout, which is gentle on your joints, is ideal for those who want to boost their cardiovascular health. To start, head to Fitness First where they have curated a near-perfect routine just for the fitness girls.
