How much do they educate you about fitness in the program? How much of the program is centered around weight? What other metrics does WW use to gauge fitness?
Thanks.

Fitness is a huge part of WW. Starting on week 3 of the program you are encouraged to begin working out. This may be starting small for the very over weight people who have not exercised in a long time, if ever. You can actually earn activity points, which you can then eat or not to boost your weight loss. For example, my walking briskly for 30 minutes (at my current weight, assuming a moderate level of exertion) would earn me 2 activity points. I could then eat those points if I wanted to that day, because I actually burned 4 points during the activity.
Every week has new fitness routines and things you are encouraged to try. The also produce aerobic videos that I really enjoy, as well as sponser miles-walked/ran clubs and other fitness things.
