Seven - Entrena 7 minutos 4+

FLIPPING AWESOME

Hello, I am a young woman who’s been going to the gym for a while now (even though I’m still definitely a beginner/intermediate), and 7 is truly one of the best things I’ve done for my health. It has wonderful exercises for all levels and sizes, man or woman, and all kinds of people. Want to start stretching? Plenty of awesome stretching exercises. Want to get some abs? Literally like 50 workouts DEDICATED to core and back workouts. It also has plenty of workouts that target one area of your body without making you feel like a total loser. My family has the family plan and we absolutely love it and I’ve gotten a friend to join as well. I know it can be a bit pricey, but just think about how it’s only 30-45 bucks for a yearly payment and you have access to workouts galore. Most gyms have a membership plan that’s outrageous compared to that. If your not into paying that much, that’s fine. But I’m telling you, this is your chance to be someone better, and 7 can help with that. Don’t ever give up no matter how much you burn (bc lemme tell you sometimes I’m hurting for days afterwards 😂) and GET THIS APP. They did a great job in it and deserve your patronage. Sincerely, JunilantOwl

AWESOMEE

I’m LOVING this app and all the nice ppl on it. I js hit the 4 month achievement, and every few months you can unlock a new work out so that you don’t have to buy the premium plan. It also gives track of how many hours you’ve done in the past seven days, 30 days, or the whole time you’ve had the app. My favorite part is the fact that you can skip up to three days a month and/or recover those days that you lost so that you stay in the *seven month challenge. I also love that it keeps track of how long you’ve worked out every single day and I just reached 105 days, it helps me stay motivated to go on a 15 minute walk or go on a 30 minute run. Even though it asks for you to be 18+ you can still be any age and it will work just fine. I’ve told my friends abt this app and a few of them got it. Overall, it gets a 5 star from me.

* The seven month challenge is where they track your progress for seven months and once you reach seven months, you get an achievement, and after that, it can still track your progress and see how far you can go without missing any work out days.

Horrible for Beginners

I am a beginner. I don’t have a lot of experience working out at home. I thought this my be a great app to try. It led me through some questions, and then presented me with starting my first work out. I specifically specified I was a beginner during the sign up process. I pressed the button to start the workout and the app immediately went into drill instructor mode. It began counting off exercises without any explanation as to what the exercise was or how to properly do it. The first one, jumping jacks, was easy enough to figure out. Then it went on to things like “wall chair.” As a novice, I had no idea how to do it. Do I do reps? Do I hold the position? How do I make sure I’m doing it properly? When it got to push ups, apparently it just assumed I was fit enough to do a full set (I don’t even know how many that was), same with sit ups. It went so quick that I barely had time to look and see what type of sit-up. Did they want my arms behind my head or in front of me? It was already 2/3 through the count when I figured it out. Finally I stopped the workout. It asked me if I was sure I wanted to quit, and I said yes. I lost all data from the sets I had completed. Also, there was no way to tell the app how many push-ups I actually did versus what the app wanted me to do.

This app might be okay if you already somewhat fit and know what you’re doing, but it left me feeling frustrated.

Respuesta del desarrollador ,

Hi there Scott.KT, thanks so much for sharing your experience with us - really sorry to hear you didn't have a great first impression!

You can find a full explanation and moveable demonstration for each exercise before starting the workout, or during the workout if you tap the screen to pause and tap the 'info' icon next to an exercise.

The sets on Seven are recorded in seconds rather than reps to encourage you to go at your own pace. There is no set number to perform within a time limit, instead we encourage you to perform as many reps as possible with good technique - even if this is just 2 or 3 reps per set :) If you'd like any guidance on this, we'd be more than happy to help you at support@perigee.se. Feel free to send us a message!

We'd also recommend starting a Plan and choosing the 'Beginner' difficulty setting. With plans, remember to rate the workouts after you complete them, so that Seven can adapt next week's schedule to you preferences! For example, if a workout is too hard, choose 'Too Hard', so that we can generate easier workouts for you next time.

If you're not looking for a plan, you can also check out the 'Get Started' section. It's a great resource for less challenging workouts to build up a foundation of fitness when you first start using Seven 💪
