What’s in the video?
Fitness shows Workout Readiness, Training Status, and Body Signals. A configured 5 km run starts from iPhone, with confirmation and a countdown on Apple Watch. Live heart-rate zones and workout metrics progress, followed by a split, the route, elevation, heart-rate detail, and a distance-goal celebration. Cooldown follows, then iPhone workout history with route, metrics, and training zones. The film ends with “Run in the Zone. Live heart-rate guidance.”
