The Verdict
iMovie is a solid free editor for basic videos, but it has zero fitness-specific features — every workout video means manual editing from scratch.
Fit Cut Pro automates the entire process — timers, exercise clips, labels, and intros — so you spend minutes, not hours, on each workout video.
