Actually that’s a myth which is stuck into minds of people for a long time.
If someone does not have time to engage in hour long exercise everyday then they can definitely go for this app. It is suitable for people who want to spend minimal amount of time in workout.

Each exercise takes up to 30 seconds which then sum up to exactly 7 minute.

These were some of the fitness app which I liked and I recommend you to use. GOQii is my favourite. It is vital to always keep yourself healthy and fit.
Along with these workout plans, it is important to keep yourself hydrated always. Most importantly always eat healthy.
Right food is the right reason for healthy human being.
