Can fitness equipment ＂talk＂? China Sport Show 2026 unveils new smart interactive fitness products

The global wave of smart fitness is gathering momentum at an accelerating pace.

The global smart sports equipment market reached a size of 5.1 billion US dollars in 2025 and is projected to surge to 12.4 billion US dollars by 2035. Among various product categories, connected fitness
equipment accounts for 44.0%, emerging as the mainstream. North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region stand as the core growth markets.

Consumers are no longer content with passive training; instead, they are looking forward to "intelligent" fitness equipment that can provide real-time feedback, social interaction, and even emotional motivation.

This trend was clearly evident at China Sport Show 2025.

l  Shuhua Sports debuted its AI-powered smart weightlifting platform, offering real-time barbell tracking and performance analytics like power output and peak velocity. 

l  Ningbo Eliga attracted cross-border buyers with its fully electric/pneumatic smart trainers—featuring digital resistance control without traditional weight stacks, sparking on-site business discussions.

China Sport Show 2026 will bring a new level of smart fitness experience. Smart fitness equipment featuring functions like data synchronization, entertainment screen casting, power assistance, and social competition will become the mainstream.

Examples include voice - interactive smart fitness mirrors, smart treadmills with running form analysis, office desk - integrated exercise bikes, and AI - adaptive massage chairs.

These high - value - added products will be showcased collectively in 2026 Asia Pacific Fitness Section. Breaking the traditional boundary between home and commercial fitness, this section focuses on the concept of "Unbounded Health". Through scenario - based interactive experiences, visitors can personally feel how technology makes fitness more efficient, more enjoyable, and more social.

China Sport Show 2026 will be held in Xiamen from May 21 to 24. It is not only a showcase for new smart fitness products but also a platform for industry communication and business matching. Whether you want to experience "voice - enabled" fitness equipment or explore business opportunities in the smart fitness sector, don't miss this event.
