Apple Fitness+

Laziness (and the curiosity that arises from it) led me to subscribe to Apple Fitness+ for the month.

Low friction is what leads to a great exercise habit. The hurdle was seeing if my apartment gym has Wifi (it does), otherwise I would have been tethering it to my iPhone. I didn't want to use the iPhone because of the small screen (though I might try it next time, as the audio is what truly drives the workout, the instructor was very explicit in instructions).

The 20 minute strength workout got me sweating, did not expect that. It's been a few months since I've had a strength workout due to my leg injury. I dug it. Didn't have to go to the Y, simply crossed the street (to get to my apartment gym). I liked that I was able to sync the Apple Watch with the workout, though I hardly paid attention to it (I was so intent on getting my form and motivation correct according to the instructor).

If you're lazy, and you know it, try Apple Fitness+.
