Our take

Apple Fitness+ is the highest-value pick if you already live in the Apple ecosystem. The on-screen heart-rate ring keeps you in the right intensity zone — useful for Zone 2 fat-loss work.

Pros

  • Cheapest premium fitness app
  • Trainer cues sync with Apple Watch heart rate on screen
  • Included in Apple One bundle
  • Time-to-Walk audio workouts are uniquely good

Cons

  • Best experience requires Apple Watch + Apple TV / iPhone
  • Smaller strength-progression programs vs Peloton
