1. 7 Minute Workout by Bytesize – Free 
This worldwide bestseller app adapts the hit American College of Sports Medicine/New York Times “7 Minute Workout” for smartphones and tablets. You can do this high intensity workout anytime, anywhere – for free! The app gives you voice prompts and visual cues to help you complete the 12 30-second long exercises in fullest form with 10 second breaks in between. “In 12 exercises deploying only body weight, a chair and a wall, it fulfills the latest mandates for high-intensity effort, which essentially combines a long run and a visit to the weight room into about seven minutes of steady discomfort — all of it based on science,” reports the New York Times. From rapid sequences of jumping jacks, wall sits, pushups, planks, squats, and more, this workout will give you the equivalent reward of a long run and trip to the weight room…in just 7 minutes!
