Review: Apple Fitness+

Apple Fitness+ is Apple’s fitness offering for everyone with a collection of meditation, HIIT, yoga, core, strength, pilates, dance, cycling, treadmill, rowing and stretching (mindful cooldown) anywhere you bring your iOS device.

Apple Fitness+ is Apple’s award winning fitness and wellness service built around the Apple Watch. Fitness+ links your iOS devices for a seamless mind and body experience access to an enormous library of a variety of workouts on your iPhone, iPad or Mac or stream to your TV and workout in groups with friends and family in to other locations with SharePlay for some extra motivation! The workouts range from 10 to 45 minutes and are great for getting in that quick sweat between the million other things you must accomplish in a day!

Because Fitness+ integrates seamlessly with your Apple Watch, your workout metrics appear on your screen and are tracked for later review of your workout and sharing. The tracking is an easy way for both novices and fitness experts to track their health and progress. Your Apple Watch tracks your total workout time, active calories, total calories, average heart rate, heart rate and heart rate recovery throughout your workout, your workout location and weather conditions. You can share your workout data with friends and family for some friendly competition or on social media.

Fitness+ features a team of trainers who are specialists in their fields and great motivators. The trainers have their own workouts and appear in each others workouts.

Music is a great part of the Fitness+ experience. There is workout during every workout and you can choose from different styles including Latest Hits, Chill Vibes, Upbeat Anthems, Pure Dance, Throwback Hits, Everything Rock, Latin Grooves, Hip Hop/R&B and Top Country.
