Nice idea, but I do take a bit of an issue with ideas like these. More often than not, they serve as a fig leaf and give the people using them a false sense of comfort and achievement.
There's a reason sports programming exists, and a certain level of intensity, planning and rotation is necessary for results.
A better thing to follow for at least a modicum of impact is http://www.7-min.com http://www.7-min.com
Anyone who's done any amount of exercise worth the designation will have to do a few rounds of this to actually get into heavy breathing territory, but it's a (structured) start!
- regedanzter 12y agoThanks for your comments and the link to 7-min.com which looks like a very nice program. I understand your concern of the false sense of achievement and that isn't my intent. I know several people who could not complete the 7 min workout no matter what they tried, and my app is supposed to be a lower level exercise program. It's still in development but the plan is for the app to be "smart" and gradually increase the workouts as the user is ready.
