[F45](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-and-f45), a world-leading fitness class franchisor, has teamed up with former soccer superstar David Beckham and renowned [Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hollywoodthemed-games) trainer Gunner Peterson to launch a new workout dubbed DB45. The new workout features an 11-station [soccer-inspired cardio session](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beat-the-icon). In addition, the class blends training methods with the aim of improving participants' explosiveness and overall fitness.

The new 45-minute workout will require members to complete two sets at all 11 stations while adhering to a soccer-style 4:4:2 class formation. Moreover, each station is meant to represent a typical soccer position such as attack, defense, goal, and mid-field.

“Working with a professional athlete like David Beckham to create DB45 has been great fun and offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the F45 community to train like an iconic athlete,” said Gunnar Peterson, F45’s Chief of Athletics

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fitness:** Partnering with sports icons to design workouts and adding sports-themed elements to fitness classes could disrupt the traditional fitness industry.
