BITING INTO A NEW ROUTINE

Apple's big Fitness+ update brings strength, yoga and Strava together

- 

Apple has significantly enhanced its Fitness+ platform (£10.99/month, apple.​com) with its most substantial update ever. This comprehensive overhaul introduces a variety of programs aimed at elevating users' fitness journeys. A notable addition is the Three Perfect Weeks of Strength program, comprising 12 guided 30-minute workouts over three weeks. Each week emphasises a distinct training focus: Progressive Overload, Time Under Tension and Dynamic Power, systematically targeting major muscle groups to build strength.

The update also includes the Yoga Peak Poses program, offering sessions concentrating on mastering advanced poses such as Dancer, Twisted Hand to Big Toe and Crow.

In response to the growing popularity of social fitness platforms, Apple Fitness+ now offers seamless integration with Strava. Users can share detailed workout metrics, including episode images, trainer names and music genres, directly to Strava. Plus, new and existing Strava subscribers are eligible for up to three months of Fitness+ access at no cost.
