Apple Fitness+ Gets Gym Strength Plans in iOS 27.3

People of all experience levels can use the feature, selecting workout days, areas of the body to focus on, and session length. Workouts have recommendations for exercises, reps, sets, and load, plus short video demonstrations from Apple Fitness+ trainers.

Workouts each week are adapted based on progress from the prior week. Gym Strength is available on iPhone and iPad, and Apple Watch wearers will be able to see and log exercises, reps, and load, plus track workout metrics.

Gym Strength is currently available in the iOS 27.3, iPadOS 27.3, and watchOS 27.3 updates for Apple Fitness+ subscribers.
