Apple Watch Introducing New Tai Chi and Pilates Workout Types in watchOS 8

Apple today announced a few workout-related features coming to watchOS 8 and Apple Fitness+.

Starting with watchOS 8, users will be able to track Tai Chi and Pilates workout styles on their Apple Watch. Apple said that the new workouts are supported by powerful custom-built heart rate and motion algorithms to provide users with accurate metrics.

Apple Fitness+ is also gaining a few features in watchOS 8, including Picture in Picture support and new filtering options, as well as the ability to stop and resume an in-progress workout on any device.

Coming to Apple Fitness+ later this month, Apple also revealed that there will be a new workout series with trainer Jeanette Jenkins. Additionally, there's also an 'artist spotlight' series of workouts that highlight songs from specific artists, like Lady Gaga, Alicia Keys, and Keith Urban.Related Roundups: WWDC 2021, iOS 15Related Forums: Apple, Inc and Tech Industry, iOS 14This article, "Apple Watch Introducing New Tai Chi and Pilates Workout Types in watchOS 8" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
