These are good points, Sieghard. It might be possible to do a similar Blind 
alive workout and then try one in Apple Fitness. there are a couple of Blind 
Alive pilates workouts, for example. If you did those and then tried a pilates 
workout in Apple Fitness, you might be able to follow it. My guess is that 
slower workouts like yoga and pilates will work better than fast-paced cardio 
ones, so they might be a good place to start. the Blind Alive workouts include 
some very detailed exercise descriptions, though, so doing Blind Alive cardio 
and interval training workouts might prepare you for similar Apple fitness 
workouts. I know Apple Fitness also includes guided meditations, so those might 
be nice even if the rest of the offerings are frustrating.

Best,
Anna
