Abstract: Annotation Introduction.Currently, there is a growing active interest of the population in physical culture and health activities, including fitness.The main trends in the development of the domestic fitness industry are: increasing the number of fitness clubs (not only in megacities, but also in the regions); emergence of new trends; increasing the number of users of fitness services; development of the middle price segment, which provides "democratic" prices for fitness services; expanding the range of offered fitness programs.In recent years, a number of studies have been conducted on various aspects of the use of fitness tools in health work with different groups.The trend of new types of fitness and expanding the proportions for the use of innovative fitness programs could not fail to attract the attention of experts.There have been a number of publications on the classification and typology of fitness programs.In most cases, the classifications are based on the following characteristics: purpose and the types of exercises that are used.However, the existing variety of fitness programs requires improvement of the criteria base of their classifications, which determines the relevance of the study.The purpose of the study is a systematic analysis of modern approaches to the classification of fitness programs. Research methods: theoretical analysis and generalization of data from scientific and methodological literature; comparison method.Results.The theoretical aspect of the classification of fitness programs is developed quite fully.The main system-forming factor in the classification of group programs are: the purpose of the tasks; their predominant focus; use of equipment; age, level of contingent readiness; place of classes, their intensity, etc.Thus, the theoretical aspect of the classification of fitness programs is fully developed.But, in our opinion, it is quite difficult for ordinary consumers of a fitness product to understand the details of programs and sets of exercises.Therefore, we consider it appropriate to develop and present a classification of areas of fitness training, which will allow users of fitness services to have an objective idea of a particular direction (program) to respond to the possibility of obtaining the maximum health effect.Fitness programs that have similar characteristics can be conditionally combined into areas.In particular, these are oriental practices, dance classes, strength or cardio training, complexes for the development of flexibility.New types of physical activity are presented, which belong to one or another direction of fitness programs. Conclusions.The given classification of fitness programs is rather conditional, as new types of fitness have signs of several directions.For example, stretching exercises "include" tension stretching, and dance exercises are often used as warm-ups, which is why different sources present different classifications.Examples are stretching, callanetics, crossfit.The existing variety of types and directions of fitness allows you to choose a certain type of © Пангелова Н., Круцевич Т., Москаленко Н., 2022 № 1. 2022 Спортивний вісник Придніпров'я Науково-практичний журнал physical activity.
