Apple has launched Fitness+, an online workout service that is built around its Apple Watch, which will include a range of different workouts – 10 in all, from high intensity interval training to “mindful cooldown” – all of which can be streamed onto iPhones or Apple TVs.
Fitness+ is available today (Monday, 14 December) and costs £9.99 per month or £79.99 per year, and can be bundled with the company’s Apple One premier plan as well as shared between different people who have a family membership.
It will initially be available in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the UK and the US. It also needs an Apple Watch Series 3 or later, as well as an iPhone, iPad or Apple TV.
Fitness+ offers workouts for everyone from a team of celebrated, charismatic, and passionate trainers who are specialists in their fields, and are inspired to coach all levels, from beginners to fitness enthusiasts. All of the workouts also include a trainer demonstrating modifications, so there’s always someone to follow, no matter a user’s ability.
Apple Fitness+ offers 10 different workouts types across a range of durations, including: High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), Strength, Yoga, Dance, Core, Cycling, Treadmill (for running and walking), Rowing, and Mindful Cooldown — along with inspiring music from today’s top artists, thoughtfully chosen for each workout to keep users moving and motivated.
For those not sure what to do on any given day, Fitness+ recommends workouts based on what they already enjoy doing so they can jump right in with something familiar, try something new, discover a new trainer, or find a workout to complement their current routine. They can also use the intuitive filter to choose the trainer, time, workout, and music to fit their mood, and in seconds, they’ll be on their way to their next great workout.
Fitness+ is available as a subscription service for £9.99 per month or £79.99 per year, and Apple Watch customers will find Fitness+ in the Fitness app on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Fitness+ can be shared among up to six family members for the same price, making it easy for other Apple Watch users in the household to enjoy the service.
Three months of Apple Fitness+ are included for customers who purchase Apple Watch Series 3 or later, and one month of Fitness+ is included for existing Apple Watch users.
Apple Fitness+ is also included in the Apple One Premier plan, and also gives customers access to Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, Apple News+, and 2TB of iCloud storage month, and can be shared among up to six family members.
