Apple Fitness+

A fitness subscription service from Apple offering guided workouts, ranging from 5-45 minutes, that can be done with bodyweight or basic equipment, integrated with Apple Watch for heart rate and calories burned.

What is Apple Fitness+?

Apple Fitness+ is a fitness subscription service launched by Apple Inc. in 2020. It provides subscribers with a variety of video workout routines that range in length from 5 to 45 minutes. The workouts cover popular exercise categories like strength training, yoga, dance, rowing, cycling, treadmill running, HIIT (high intensity interval training), and mindful cooldowns.

A key feature of Apple Fitness+ is its deep integration with Apple Watch. During workouts, metrics like heart rate and calories burned are displayed on the screen. This allows users to monitor their intensity in real time. The Apple Watch also tracks users' Activity rings, awarding credit for the calories burned during each session.

Workouts in Apple Fitness+ can be done with just bodyweight or minimal equipment like dumbbells, an exercise bike, or rowing machine. Most classes are led by enthusiastic coaches in a bright, modern studio. Upbeat music is featured throughout.

In addition to the video instruction, several other features help users get the most out of their workouts. Subtitles are offered in multiple languages. Apple Music integration allows the choice of customized playlists to train to. For supported workouts, real-time trainer pacing helps users keep up.

As an Apple subscription service, Apple Fitness+ requires an iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV, in addition to an Apple Watch. An ongoing monthly or yearly fee unlocks access to new daily workouts added to the service. Up to 6 family members can participate under the same subscription.
