Mac Power Users, episode 467, Fitness Apps and Tech.

Hello everyone, this is David Sparks, along with my pal Stephen Hackett how are you

today Stephen I'm doing well David how are you good this episode's gonna be fun I

think so I think so we've got a bunch of fitness discussion and hacks and

apps you know Apple has made fitness a thing with their products now and I find

myself increasingly using them I know you do too

Stephen. So we thought today we'd just kind of take a survey of the ways you can use your

app products to to get more fit and some of the best workflows and apps to pull that off.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to getting into this.

It's one of my favorite sort of like modern Apple initiatives, like all the health and fitness stuff.

Clearly they care about it deeply, they've made big investments.

I think Tim Cook like personally really cares about you, listen to interviews with them, he's like,

oh I'm at the gym every

morning at 5 a.m like that's impressive and I think that is filtered down into their

products in a way that's as we're going to get into is like really interesting

and I think helpful to a lot of people. Yeah and you can tell that you know an

Apple references the people who you know use their Apple watch when their car

crashes or or you know Apple watch helps them avoid a heart attack you know Apple of course I use that for

marketing but I think they at a very deep level are proud of that and I think so too

And anyway so there's a lot you can do with this stuff and we've broken it down with a nice long outline here. But before we get to that, just a couple of points. First is I wanted to thank everyone that said hello to me at PodCon.

So I was up in Seattle last weekend.

And man, we had some great listeners there.
