7 Minute Workout Challenge

Description
The "7 Minute Workout" is a research-backed workout program that has become an international hit!
Published in the leading research journal ACSM, and then popularized by the NYT, the "7 Minute Workout" is simple but effective.
Researchers have selected 12 exercises that are performed for 30 seconds with 10 second rest intervals. This high-intensity training with little rest results in higher daily metabolism and is the equivalent of working out for over an hour - for only slightly longer than 7 minutes.
The best part? The exercises are simple to perform, do not require any equipment, and therefore, can be done anywhere! NO MORE EXCUSES.
This app takes this research-proven workout and guides you through the process. Further, it tracks your results, and makes it fun by allowing you to unlock rewards as you continue working out.
App features include:
- stunning design
- both male and female trainers that guide you by video, audio, image and text
- all content is INCLUDED (no additional charges, and no need for internet connectivity)
- track your weight with our weight tracker
- track your activity with our activity calendar
- workout and unlock various achievements

Fantastic!
Started to get back in shape Jan 1st. Wanted to be a certain weight by Feb 17th. My 50th. Bone spurs in ankles so elliptical is all I could do. Watched calorie intake and met my goal! So far haven't stopped!! Working on my next goal. Been bored with elliptical. So, for a while I've been looking for an app to change things up. I've read about Tabata exercises but seems a little advanced for me. Then I saw this app on Facebook two days ago. I installed it and LOVE what I see. Everything I've been looking for. Achievement goals, tracking results(in a graph) and upgrades to test yourself. Couldn't be more excited!!
Lies
Don't believe the lies, or at the very least misleading information.
The app claims anytime, anywhere, no equipment needed. Well what the heck do you call a wall or a chair? Insubstantial air? No. Those count as equipment. So you can't do this workout anywhere, you need equipment for 3 of the exercises--Wall Sit, Chair Step & Chair Triceps Dip. I've had to just stand there watching the timer run down.
I tried googling and searching reviews before purchasing. None mentioned this. If they would have listed the exercises I wouldn't feel like I got ripped off; I wouldn't have purchased this app but chosen something else, something that didn't make false claims and would have worked with my environs.
Excellent!
I have a ton of workout apps, and this one is my favorite because it's the most efficient for the amount of good muscle fatigue I feel the next day. I usually start out with this 7 min workout, and then do two other workout challenges/routines consecutively after this one. This 7 min workout adds the right amount of variety to stand alone as your only workout, or in conjunction with several other rountines done all consecutively for one big workout.
