Apple Fitness

Whether you have an Apple Watch or AirPods Pro 3 or just want to find good workouts to do at home, Apple’s Fitness app is a great way to achieve your fitness goals in 2026 without installing any extra apps.

With an Apple Watch, the Apple Fitness app will keep track of all your physical activity during the day. You’ll get data like the steps you take, how many calories you’ve burned, and how much exercise you’ve done. The more active you are, the better your rings will be, and the app will even give you medals for crushing specific goals.

If you have the latest AirPods Pro 3, you can also use the Apple Fitness app exclusively on your iPhone to track your exercise. This won’t give you as much data as an Apple Watch that you wear all day, but if your 2026 goals include working out more, Apple’s latest high-end earbuds are an ideal way to log exercise and heart rate data without investing in any other accessories.

Apple also has a subscription service called Apple Fitness+ where you’ll find different workouts you can do at home with nothing but your own body weight and your iPhone.

The workouts are excellent on their own to keep you moving during the day, and the service also comes with exercise programs you can follow called with different classes to help achieve a specific goal, like strengthening your core, running your first 5K, or practicing gratitude and kindness.

Apple Fitness+ costs $9.99 per month, but you can also get it as part of a Apple One Premium bundle with all five of Apple’s other services for $37.95 per month. That’s less than the individual costs of the Apple Music, Apple TV, and 2 TB iCloud+ storage that are included, which means you’re basically getting Fitness+, Apple News+, and Apple Arcade for free.
