Neat!

That's part of what's holding me back, too. I don't mind "the outdoors". However, summer in southeast US is bonkers, tho. Crushing heat and humidity. I almost got Fitness+ because of it. I passed on it just because I like to get "out" in the day for a mental break and change of scenery.

I was thrilled to see group workouts as me and my partner have wanted to workout together from the start..... but then it turns out she has to be ANYWHERE ELSE in the world apart from right beside me. 🤦

Seriously. This was a no-brainer. Why can't couples do a workout together in front of the Apple TV with both stats showing up? They are literally doing group workouts RIGHT THERE.

Never mind that shareplay workouts are only supported on the apple tv "through airplay". Aka. not at all.

I'd still like to be able to sort the functional weight training workouts by the area of the body the workout focuses on. I have to select and read the description of each to see if it's an "upper body" "total body" or "lower body" workout.

I like that we can sort by duration, I never sort by instructor or music. I can more about the area of focus.

It's quite annoying.

I do like that they are adding seasonal workouts, I look forward to more in that area. Maybe some triathlon specific workouts?

The beta has these filters. So yes, those filters are coming on Monday with iOS 15 or on the 27th when these new workouts come out. You can also filter by body focus for the Mindful Cooldown stretches. There are also equipment filters and Yoga flow filters. The equipment filters are garbage though, and you can't filter for multiple things i.e. you can filter by dumbbells, mat, or no equipment but you can't filter for workouts that only use a mat and no dumbbells.
