Ratings and reviews

I have not done any workout in over 10 years due to laziness and lack of motivation; tried multiple ways to be more active. Decided to try this app and it was perfect for about 10 days. I was in pain and fatigued as I should be, but workouts were short and varied enough to keep my attention and make me want to do them daily. The rest days were a godsend too. Then I noticed the increases that caused times > 7 minutes, even if done quickly (>10 min). Starting to lose interest and motivation now :/

The app is the simplest way to get in your daily cardio, bodyweight, and general wellness. I use it for four circuits of the classic, five days a week. Being 33, I'm in better shape then some of my friends in their 20s. I don't build mass, but if you have functional strength, you don't need it. Function over form. I'm 6'1 160ish pounds. I only wish it had the option of the modified versions of certain things I do, like Tyson pushups and burpees.

If you are looking for a way to ease into a workout routine, this is a good way to start. Be warned, however, that if you move through a program such as the 30 Day Challenge, it will increase the time investment way beyond 7 minutes as you go (many days the scheduled workout took me ~30 minutes). It is effective though. The app itself is somewhat rudimentary, with simple cartoon drawings demonstrating the exercises and a monotone electronic voice giving instructions.
