The fitness tracker industry is set to almost triple from one valued at $2 billion in 2014, to $5.4 billion by 2019.

That's according to Parks Associates, emerging consumer tech analyst, who also stated that "connected health devices" jumped from 24% adoption in the US in 2013, up to 30% by the end of last year.

"The most popular devices are exercise equipment with built-in app support and digital pedometers with wireless connectivity," read a statement promoting its latest report - Digitally Fit: Products and Services for Connected Consumers.
