While “Health & Fitness” describes a *lifestyle* category heavily influencing content creation (videos, podcasts, articles), it isn’t a recognized *music genre* with established origins, characteristics, artists, or albums in the same way as rock, pop, or hip-hop. Attempts to categorize music *used* during fitness activities often fall into existing genres like electronic dance music (EDM), pop, motivational soundtracks, or upbeat instrumental.
The concept of music specifically *for* exercise evolved alongside the fitness boom of the 1970s and 80s. Jane Fonda’s workout videos (starting 1982) prominently featured popular music of the time – primarily synth-pop and new wave – but didn't *create* a genre. Later, aerobic instructors curated playlists focused on beats per minute (BPM) to synchronize movement.
Today, streaming services offer curated “workout” playlists spanning various genres. While these are impactful for fitness motivation and experience, they represent *applications* of existing musical styles rather than a distinct genre itself.
