Abstract:
The contemporary urban way of living is characterized by the diversification of lifestyles, basically relying on the influence of modern technologies, especially on the use of Mobile applications, which have become instrumental in supporting daily activities. The culture of healthy physical exercise, and consequently the development of the fitness industry, is one of the key denominators of the contemporary urban lifestyle. This phenomenon has transitioned from the realm of health to that of a balanced lifestyle, which has been commercialized and, as a result, integrated into the broader culture of consumerism. The paper aims to present a program framework for the multifaceted utilization of digital mobile applications in the fitness industry about the diverse requirements of individuals in contemporary urban daily life. The paper establishes a cause-and-effect relationship between contemporary urban life and the fitness industry, highlighting four primary spheres of utilization for mobile applications. These include facilitating faster and more comprehensive communication between fitness service providers and users, supporting flexible lifestyle timetables, adapting to lifestyle changes related to age, gender, specific needs, and aspirations, and promoting quality control and progress monitoring of individually set goals.
