Gymkit is a system for integrating fitness equipment with HealthKit.
Apple Fitness+ is a service that provides videos about exercises you can do without equipment, synced to and from HealthKit.

- BoorishBears 5y agoI had no idea what GymKit was after burning months on my life on it! I said what I said. An in-home fitness service using Gymkit to provide deep integration with streamed workouts. Their non-equipment workouts work with Healthkit, but to have parity you need Gymkit too since Apple Fitness is not just about equipment-less workouts: https://www.apple.com/apple-fitness-plus/equipment/ https://www.apple.com/apple-fitness-plus/equipment/ To that end it's more deeply integrated than Apple Fitness since Apple Fitness streaming content needs to target any Gymkit enabled (or really any hardware period) hardware of a given type with all the variation that entails. This company is customizing the stream for a handful of Gymkit enabled devices which gives them more control over the workout experience
