This is the hit workout based on scientific research published in ACSM’s Health & Fitness Journal and popularized by the NYT.
The #1 fitness app in the US and top 5 fitness App in over 80 countries!
Created for people with busy lives, the "7 Minute Workout" is designed by scientists to give you all the benefits of much longer workouts in just a little over 7 minutes.
The app will guide you through 12 exercises that you'll perform for 30 seconds each with a 10 second rest in between. This is called "high-intensity interval training" (HIIT) and it is a much more effective than endurance training (such as jogging). And best of all you can do the 7 Minute Workout anywhere!

As seen in the NY Time's article, "The Scientific 7-Minute Workout", this workout is based on research in high-intensity interval training. You will exercise all major muscle groups using nothing more than a floor, wall, chair and your own body weight.

Love it!

I love the simplicity of this 7 minute app, yet it also has options for more intense workouts. I like that in the year I’ve had it they haven’t tried to “improve” it with unnecessary bells and whistles. The count down is clear and I love her accent. Something a little different. And I love the little “Well done!” At the end. This has really helped me to get into shape.
Great App, One Problem

This is the best app of its kind I have found and I have used it for years. However, I recently reinstalled it and discovered that the Restore Purchases button does nothing. The app will show connecting to iTunes, but never actually connect or follow through on restoring purchases, nor will it even time-out. Real interesting (and convenient) that.
Easy way to get a quick workout

I’m using it after a 5 month hiatus from exercise. All my friends like it. Easier and less daunting than Kayla’s BBG.
Get motivated

This app is perfect. Video & written descriptions. Easy to use. Well-produced. The right amount of promoting. Alerts to the next exercise to get ready for. Super recommend. Doing this daily has made a huge difference in my fitness & energy even tho I am pretty active. Hard not to find 7 minutes in the day so easy to make it a permanent part of your schedule. The ads are unobtrusive & relevant and worth it for an excellent free app.
Complete body workout

3 sets of 12 is an awesome 30 minute. Give it a try. You will not be disappointed the best of all the 7 minute workouts.....
Charge for both genders or neither!
Whole dollar
App is fine but What's up with charging for a male voice??? I will spend my money elsewhere!
It's Hard!

This workout makes me sweat - I have been doing it every day for 3 months, with no other change to my daily habits and my body feels and looks in better shape. I'm more toned. My weight hasn't changed, but wouldn't expect that. Simple, easy - everyone has 7 minutes to spend on a daily workout
