As we celebrate the success of 2025, we are proud to unveil the focus of the 2026 edition 🎉.

This year, places mental health and wellbeing 🧠 at the centre of our collective action, with a dedicated focus on children and adolescents. Across Europe, mental health challenges are among the leading causes of reduced quality of life, and young people are particularly affected. At the same time, regular physical activity remains one of the most powerful and accessible protective factors for mental wellbeing across the lifespan.

At its core, is a Europe-wide activation of the fitness and physical activity sector. Through our national member organisations, thousands of clubs, trainers and community facilities open their doors and encourage people of all ages and backgrounds to take part in exercise and sport 🏃‍♀️. Each year, communities come together to be active and experience the physical, social and psychological benefits of regular activity.

In 2026, this effort will be reinforced by the launch of the Mental Health & Wellbeing Guide 📘 for the fitness sector, providing practical, evidence-based guidance to help professionals create inclusive, supportive and psychologically safe environments, particularly for children and young people.

Together with our national organisations and partners, we will use 2026 to raise awareness, share good practices, and encourage meaningful action across the sector. Our ambition is to position the fitness and physical activity sector as a credible contributor to Europe’s mental health and prevention agenda.

Follow us throughout the year as we work towards healthier, more supportive environments for all.

During Ramadan, millions of people fast from sunrise to sunset. But how does fasting influence training, recovery, and performance? 🌙

Recent research has explored how fasting can affect hydration, energy availability, and perceived fatigue during exercise. While these changes can influence training responses, studies also show that with proper planning, exercise performance and muscle mass can be maintained.

For personal trainers, this means understanding how to adjust training schedules, manage intensity, and support clients who choose to train while fasting. Evidence based coaching helps ensure that training during Ramadan remains both safe and effective.

At EREPS, we continue to highlight research that helps fitness professionals better support diverse client needs and training contexts. 💪

Wearables are bringing exciting change to the fitness industry, making training more modern, informed, and data-driven. From sleep patterns to heart health, they help us better understand what is happening in the body and respond with more confidence.

This opens the door to a new level of personalised training, with clearer insight into recovery, workload, and injury prevention.

A recent study explored how accurate wearable technologies really are and how they can support training and coaching decisions.

In this post, we’re sharing with you the key findings and how wearables can positively support fitness professionals in their everyday work.💡📊

With all the AI buzz around us, it’s natural to ask what this means for our profession. Is AI going to replace personal trainers? The short answer is no, but the conversation is worth having, especially within the EREPS community that values professional standards and evidence-based practice 🎓

In this educational post, we look at two studies from 2025 exploring how AI is shaping fitness behaviours among adolescents and everyday fitness app users.

The findings show growing engagement with AI, but also highlight the continued importance of guidance, context, and real coaching expertise 🧠

Have a look through the post to see the key insights, and if you’d like to read the research yourself, you can find the links here:

Misinformation is one of the biggest challenges today. From social media to unverified content it is easy to get lost in a sea of information and struggle to separate fact from fiction.

This trend has not spared the fitness sector, where trainers and clients face daily challenges from incorrect and sometimes even dangerous claims.

This week we are highlighting two studies from last year that show why education and professional standards are essential and why personal trainers play a key role in guiding clients safely and effectively.

We encourage every trainer to educate their clients, explain the evidence and never stop learning themselves.

Exercise is a powerful contributor to mental wellbeing, a proven tool that does not receive enough attention.

As a personal trainer, you witness it every day: your clients’ personalities, their worries, their insecurities, and sometimes the mental health challenges they face. And what you have probably noticed by now, research has shown that physical activity is an important factor for mental health, helping people feel more confident and balanced.

With this post, we hope to give you insights you can use in your coaching, guiding your clients towards better mental wellbeing and inspiring you to explore even more ways to support them.🙂

The journey of a personal trainer is built on many skills, developed step by step. From exercise science and physiology to psychology and communication, there’s always more to learn.😊

How you coach, communicate, and support clients shapes how they experience training, tackle challenges, and stay consistent.

Studies now confirm what we see every day: thoughtful coaching and the right training environment have a real impact on long-term fitness results.

Understanding this helps us coach smarter and with intention.

This marks the first post in our educational series, where we’ll share research-based insights to strengthen everyday coaching practice.📚🎉
