As easy as flicking on a podcast or jumping back into your favourite artists, it pulls guided workouts, Peloton classes, and creator workout videos into one convenient place so you can walk into a gym already knowing exactly how you’re going to spend the next hour.
It’s part of a wider push for Spotify to meet its audience where they are. Whether that’s at the gym or pounding the pavement in desperate need of a tune to pick them up, Spotify wants to provide the go-to fitness hub inside the app you already open every morning.
After training, join the staggering 67% of Australians who find the time to meditate through the Spotify app, clearly seeking a space where they can relax and switch off, with listening peaks between midnight and 3 AM.
Admittedly, Fitness with Spotify won’t (yet) replace a good PT, and serious lifters who already pay for Strava, Runna, or a coaching app probably won’t cancel any of their premium benefits just yet. But for the person whose biggest barrier is simply getting started, being able to train privately, cheaply, and without having to work out what every machine does, Fitness with Spotify could be that crucial next step to get moving.
