Sports goods refer to equipment and clothes that are required for participating in sports and preventing related injuries. On the other hand, fitness goods are a subset of sports goods, which are employed during workouts. These goods are widely utilized as they aid in maintaining overall fitness, improving flexibility, muscle strength, and cardiovascular and pulmonary health of an individual. In recent years, with the increasing focus on fitness, various institutions in India are encouraging people to actively participate in physical activities.
