Abril was created by the type foundry “typetogether.” The intention behind the typeface was to emulate the look of headlines found in traditional newspaper print and magazines.
The abril font can also be used as a font for body text through the use of its variation “abril text.” Abril was specifically produced by Veronika Burian and Jose Scaglione. With versatility in mind, Abril comes in many different weights and styles. Between these variations of styles and weights, and the fact that there exists both display and text variations, it's a great all-purpose typeface.
While the fonts used for the headline text and the body text are both serif fonts, they complement each other well. The typeface used for the headline has a very high contrast which makes it more interesting and attention-getting. On the other hand, the typeface used for the body copy is clean and easy to read in larger quantities. Also worth noting is the use of small, saturated sanserif fonts displaying needed information without taking up too much space or attention.
The typeface used in the header and body text appear to be the same. However, there is still enough of a contrast between the two elements to establish one from another as the size and weights are different. Many links outside of the main content of the page are sanserif and given bright colors, directing focus towards these links.
Fitness on Toast uses very thin sanserif fonts throughout the entire page. The header text of the page is massive and acts as the focal point. While all the fonts on the page are very similar, there is variation in the body text of the articles. Certain words or phrases are given a heavier weight in order to draw attention and illustrate the main idea of the full article. This allows readers to gain a quick understanding of the content, and decide if they would like to read further.
