Trying to get wellthy? No, friends, that’s not a typo – according to consumer trend tracker trendwatching.com, a hearty lung capacity and rock hard abs are becoming as important a status symbol as, say, a sweet ride or a fancy new iThing.

Witness:

• People are increasingly ranking physical fitness and health as an important component of their happiness.

• Around the world, people are using more mobile healthcare devices and apps – most of which are purchased by consumers, not doctors.

• Tons of new fitness “toys” – Wii Fit, Sleep On It, the Fitbit – have been hitting the market lately.

Looks like you’ll have to literally keep up with the Joneses these days…
