Apple brings its premium fitness service to India on Dec 15 — Are you ready?

“Through its seamless integration across Apple devices, Fitness+ has helped inspire users to live a healthier day,” said Jay Blahnik, Apple’s vice president of Fitness Technologies. “From seeing real-time, personal metrics right onscreen with Apple Watch or AirPods Pro 3, to the ability to bring the service with you wherever you go on iPhone or iPad, we’re delivering unmatched motivation to users. We couldn’t be more excited to bring this experience to even more users around the globe with our biggest expansion yet.”

With this expansion, users in 49 countries and regions around the world can access the service’s 12 different workout types — including Strength, Yoga, HIIT, Pilates, Dance, Cycling, Kickboxing, and Meditation — with episodes ranging from five to 45 minutes on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.

Users can supercharge their Fitness+ workouts with Apple Watch, or use AirPods Pro 3 and view personal metrics directly onscreen, such as heart rate, calories burned, progress on their Activity rings,2 and the Burn Bar,3 which lets users compare their effort to others who have done the same workout.

With Custom Plans, Fitness+ automatically creates a personalized schedule based on users’ workout and meditation preferences, including their top activities, durations, trainers, music, and more.

Music is key to the Fitness+ experience, thanks to a deep integration with Apple Music and inspiring music genres such as Upbeat Anthems, Latest Hits, Hip-Hop/R&B, and Latin Grooves. Now, Fitness+ is turning up the volume with a new K-Pop music genre that will be available across all workout types with global hits from top artists.
