PUBLISHED MON, DEC 14 20209:02 AM ESTUPDATED MON, DEC 14 202011:38 AM EST Todd Haselton @ROBOTODD KEY POINTS Apple Fitness+ launches on Monday. It’s Apple’s new fitness app with all sorts of recorded exercises classes that you can do from an Apple TV, iPad or iPhone, so long as you own an Apple Watch. CNBC reviews Apple Fitness+ here, with some thoughts on how it compares to Peloton’s similar app. WATCH NOW VIDEO07:14 Apple unveils Fitness+, a new service for the Apple Watch Apple’s subscription fitness app, Fitness+, launches on Monday. I’ve been using it for the past several days and I think it offers a nice variety of workouts that people will like. You need an Apple Watch to take the pre-recorded exercise classes, which are available on iPhones, iPads and the Apple TV.
It’s a smart way for Apple to make the Apple Watch even stickier. If people get really into the fitness classes, like I have, it will be yet another way Apple keeps people locked in to its ecosystem of products. Why buy another phone, tablet or watch if you really like Fitness+? It also comes at a great time, when people aren’t in gyms and are at home looking for ways to exercise.
Like other fitness apps, including Peloton’s, which starts at $12.99 a month for classes that don’t need the company’s connected spin bike, you don’t need anything to use it. But, you’ll get more out of it if you have any indoor cycle, treadmill, rowing machine or free weights, since some of the classes require equipment. But you don’t need anything special. I’ve been riding a hand-me-down exercise bike, for example.
WATCH NOW VIDEO02:40 First look: Apple’s AirPods Max provide great sound and style for a hefty price Fitness+ costs $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year. It’s also part of the Premier Apple One plan, which costs $29.95 per month, and includes other Apple products like Apple Music, Apple TV+ and extra iCloud storage bundled together at a discount.
Here’s what Apple Fitness+ is like.
What I like
Apple Fitness+ Apple Fitness+ Apple I started taking my health a lot more seriously a few months ago and have cut a bunch of weight. A great deal of that was through diet, but I’ve also been addicted to Peloton’s iPad app, which I use on a regular indoor bike and not a real Peloton and that, like Fitness+, has a variety of non-cycling workouts.
The Peloton instructors are really encouraging. (Shout out to Alex Toussaint, Emma Lovewell and Kendall Toole.) So, I was worried that I wouldn’t find that kind of coaching in Fitness+. If the coaches weren’t good, I’d go back to Peloton.
But, after I took about eight cycling classes on Fitness+, I started to get used to and enjoy the different Apple Fitness+ instructors. My favorites so far are the cycling instructors Emily Fayette, Bakari Williams and Tyrell Desean, but I haven’t taken a class with all the 21 instructors for a variety of workouts yet. There are a lot to choose from with classes like high-intensity interval training (HIIT), spin, yoga, treadmill, rowing, strength and dance.
I love that Fitness+ syncs seamlessly with the Apple Watch. You just pick the workout you want and then hit start. Your heart rate, the time elapsed (or time left if you want) and your Apple Watch Fitness rings (red for calories, green for exercise minutes and blue for standing minutes) appear on the screen and close as you continue to work out. Any Apple Watch owner knows how addictive it can be to try to close all of your rings every day, and I like that the app puts this right on the screen to encourage me to close mine.
You can stream workouts to your iPad, iPhone or Apple TV, or download them for when you don’t have an internet connection. I preferred cycling with an iPad, but liked that I could come upstairs and do a cooldown or a quick yoga class while watching on the Apple TV. Also, as long as you own an Apple Watch and subscribe to Fitness+, you can workout on any Apple TV with Fitness+ installed. So, if you’re staying in a hotel that has one, or more likely an Airbnb, it’ll see your watch nearby and let you take classes even if the owner of the Apple TV doesn’t pay for Fitness+. This will be fun when we can all travel again.
It’s also easy to find classes on the Apple TV, iPad or iPhone. The app recommends classes based on your previous workouts (including in any app that saves data to Apple Health, like Peloton). You can filter by time (10 minutes up to 45 minutes), by instructor, by exercise or by type of music. And, I like that you can automatically save music or play it back inside the Apple Music app. You don’t need to be a subscriber to Apple Music to hear songs in Fitness+, however.
Apple Fitness+ Apple Fitness+ Apple The workouts are great. The 45 minute bike rides definitely left me sweaty and showed that I burned about 450 to 500 calories, about what I get in the same time from the Peloton app. I’m not a huge yoga guy, but I liked the 10-minute intro class and plan to try to take some of the longer ones. I really need to work on my flexibility. A 10-minute strength class I snuck in after a bike ride really worked out my thighs. There’s plenty to choose from already and more classes will be added each Monday. You’ll find enough to do.
Finally, and maybe the most important part, is Apple Fitness does a great job of encouraging all fitness levels. There are additional instructors during each workout showing recommended tweaks or changes you might make if you’re not in perfect shape like the trainers. In the cycling workouts, I was encouraged to push myself but not to set a specific level of resistance or cadence, which I liked better than on Peloton where I first felt like I wasn’t working out as hard if I couldn’t maintain the harder resistance levels. And speaking of inclusion, the classes all start and end with a bit of sign language for people who are hard of hearing. Nice touch.
What I’d like to see
Apple Fitness+ Apple Fitness+ Apple There are a couple of things I still prefer from the Peloton app. Apple’s Fitness+ instructors are great, but I want to learn more about them and their individual personalities.
I like that Peloton instructor Alex Toussaint serves as a sort of drill sergeant-style instructor. No excuses for not doing your best. This extends even into the music. You’ll hear explicit language in Peloton. (Even the instructors curse occasionally.) You don’t get that in Fitness+. Maybe it’s weird, but I just don’t get as amped working to a hip-hop playlist with the curse words missing.
And I like that Peloton instructors chat more about their lives and experiences. Peloton’s Emma Lovewell talks about being raised on Martha’s Vineyard. Her dad was a musician. She talks about her favorite new tunes with custom workout playlists. About how she’s restoring a new home. I don’t yet know a whole lot about Fitness+ instructors, aside from small profiles posted online, but I’m told that should start to come through more and I’m looking forward to more of that.
Peloton also offers live classes while Fitness+ does not. And if you don’t take the live class, Peloton still shows you who’s taking the prerecorded class with you at the same time, which I like. Fitness+ lets you compete with everyone else who’s taken a class through “burn bar” that appears on the screen and tells you where you stand in the pack. It’s fun in cycling classes, but I wish there were more social features that showed me who else was riding in real-time, or how my friends did in a specific class. It doesn’t show any user names (that’s by design as a privacy feature) and instructors don’t shout out encouragements for hitting milestones like a 100th ride or workout. I just love the community feel in Peloton and themed classes like the holiday and Thanksgiving rides where instructors might even dress up or play holiday music. I hope that comes to Fitness+ too.
Also, while the Apple Watch has a bunch of digital badges and awards you can win for workout streaks, I wish there were some dedicated to Fitness+. So, maybe I’d get badges for working out with Fitness+ in a week. Or a badge for doing specific holiday workouts if and when those ever appear.
Finally, it’s obvious, but you need Apple devices to use Fitness+. It doesn’t run on Android or TV boxes like Roku, and you have to have an Apple Watch. So, Peloton is the way to go if you want an app that runs on different kinds of TV boxes, tablets, phones and fitness trackers.
Apple Fitness+ final thoughts
Apple Fitness+ Apple Fitness+ Apple Fitness+ is excellent. Should you pick it over Peloton? Tough call.
This is the part of a review is where I’d normally say if you should buy something or not, but both Fitness+ and the Peloton app come with free one-month trials. And anyone who bought a new Apple Watch this year gets a three-month trial. So, really, you should try both and see which one you like better. I’m pretty torn right now.
I love how well Fitness+ syncs and works across devices, how well it works with the Apple Watch and that it’s really inviting for all fitness levels. You’ll end Peloton and Fitness+ classes feeling sweaty and happy.
Considering I used to pay more than $150 a month for a gym before the pandemic, I’m probably just going to keep using both apps. Apple Fitness+ is included in the Premier family plan I already pay for, and I like being able to switch up instructors and workout styles between the apps.
The way I see it, I’m just getting even more classes if I subscribe to both. Plus, this way I’m not quitting on the Peloton instructors I love so much, or missing the fun special classes and workout streaks, and I can continue getting in shape while continuing to explore Fitness+.

Hi all! I’m connecting with product managers to understand more about the space. I make 30-60 minute interviews as part of some discovery research I am doing for a side project. I did an interview of a product manager in an enterprise and learnt quite a lot. Here are a few truths and titbits from it. * Product management is a high velocity communication game. You are constantly working with customers, customer success managers, sales engineers, CXOs, marketing team, sales people etc. * You can easily have a 1000 open tickets. You need to stay on top of which are in progress and what are the priorities. * The customer may communicate with multiple people in your organization but ultimately it is your responsibility to ensure that their priorities are taken into consideration and addressed. * Slack, Outlook in Office 365, Jira, and Zendesk are the goto tools
Here is the interview https://prodjeeves.com/transitioning-into-product-owner-role-interview/
I want to hear what the community says. What would you like to hear?
What would you like to ask other product managers? If you have some questions, let me know.
Otoh, I am also trying to understand the space. If you can spend sometime for an interview, please let me know. I would be glad to.
PragmaticPulp 28 mins It's important to understand their prior roles and responsibility in detail at the start of the interview. The Product Manager title can mean very different things depending on the company.
At some companies, Product Manager is a high responsibility, high accountability position that drives the roadmap. They are responsible for deciding what gets built and ensuring that it's both feasible and will generate the highest ROI. They are accountable for moving the product forward and coordinating across departments to make sure the right work is getting done.
On the other end of the spectrum, some companies treat the Product Manager like a communication switchboard or a Jira ticket manager. These positions don't have much power, don't make major decisions, and mostly follow orders from someone else. They spend their days sifting through Slack channels, Jira tickets, and nagging developers for updated estimates.
The trick is to get the person to elaborate on their experience before you tell them what type of Product Manager you're looking for. The challenge is that if you describe the position too much up front, most candidates will simply adjust or embellish their experience to match what they think you want to hear. If you instead ask them detailed questions about what they did at previous companies, you'll get a more unbiased view of their prior experience.

Be careful about using Product Manager and Product Owner interchangeably. They mean different things at different companies.
woeirua 1 hr How do you decide which features to prioritize and which to pass on? You'll probably get a wide range of responses to that question, but you'll also probably get a good feeling for who is a competent PM and who is probably not. Hint: good PMs won't just base it on gut feelings or anecdotal evidence.
How do you balance priorities that you're hearing from customers with priorities that you're hearing from sales? PMs often find themselves in between sales, customers and engineering, and balancing those conflicting priorities is tough.
How do you convince engineers to take on hard tasks? A lot of times PMs come up with great ideas but engineers will balk at actually implementing them because "it's too hard."
lemax 1 hr PM is all about impact and effort. Priority goes to the high impact low effort stuff first, and low impact high effort generally goes the way of the bin. Strategic alignment is also import whenever priority is evaluated.
Hint: good PMs won't just base it on gut feelings or anecdotal evidence.
Sure, good PMs tend to collect great evidence from customer interviews, usage data etc. However, getting too hung up on data is sometimes a trap. I've seen some great ideas from teams - some even fully implemented - shot down by other PMs because there was no research.
What if you don't have the data, but the idea is something you know will generate massive value? This is the exact issue startup ideas face... no one knows if an idea is valuable until it's tested and a product hits the market. But early stage founders and great product managers might just know something is the right idea yet have zero data to back it.
Any product a product manager has ever worked on was initially created from nothing. Data wasn't generated until people took a risk and delivered.
ntsplnkv2 48 mins Yep, the "it" factor matters. If data drove everything we wouldn't need people to make decisions.
necovek 1 hr Oh wow, that was sneaky.
In my experience, all sides do come up with "great ideas" all the time, but it is their job to estimate effort and ROI before starting on any one idea.
Sure, there are plenty of engineers who are unable to come up with an incremental approach for a "great idea", but there are as many PMs who are unable to understand the incremental approach and would rather have it all or nothing.
Every one of them needs to experience true incremental delivery of value to really buy into it.
foobaw 1 hr Sometimes, especially in B2B Saas, it's as simple as looking at potential short-term and long-term revenue (building something that is more sellable).
codingdave 3 hrs "Product Manager" is a title that means different things to different companies, ranging from mini-CEO to Jira-monkey, and everywhere in between. You are absolutely correct to be talking to many different people to understand this slice of the industry.
I'd ask them what PMs do in their organization, what POs do, and what the difference is in their mind. Ask what level of detail they operate at, what they delegate to others, and what types of things are expected to be passed up to their boss.
You also might get interesting perspectives if you explore outside the software industry. Product managers exist in all kinds of companies, with the same overall goal to understand the market and produce the correct product under the correct business model. But the day-to-day of a software PM is vastly different than the day-to-day of a PM that produces retail goods, for example.

Second this. I'd think PM at Google work differently than PM in Lockheed.
hollerith 2 hrs What does PO stand for?
xnyan 2 hrs To expand on the other answers, generally the project owner deals with “why” and the manager with “what.” In slightly more vulgar terms, it’s like the difference between an owner of a McDonald’s and a manager of a McDonald’s.
TuringNYC 1 hr Product Owner, which is a Scrum role but often a job title for an individual tasked with that Scrum role.
https://www.scrum.org/resources/what-is-a-product-owner
comradesmith 1 hr Product owner. Not that I could tell you what that means though
grapehut 2 hrs Petty Officer
airstrike 18 mins Purchase order
codeyperson 2 hrs Product owner
Lucasoato 2 hrs Project owner?
ambivalents 3 hrs As a PM I sometimes get asked a question, typically by Engineering, and I think the ability to answer this question well is an embodiment of the role. It can take different forms but it's basically: "Why?" Why build X over Y? Why this feature, this way, instead of another way? Why now, instead of later? Why should I build it, and not her?
Answering this well requires a) ability to communicate convincingly, b) evidence, typically through user data, research, competitor analysis, etc., c) authority in your space, d) ability to translate business requirements into technical speak, and vice versa, and e) respect from the team you're working with.
necovek 1 hr I am surprised it's your (PM's) job to decide who should be building something ("why should I build it, and not her").
nitrogen 9 mins As an engineer I find it very frustrating when the PM takes that role instead of the EM or the team via consensus.
