7 Minute Scientific Workout -

When it comes to physical activity, something is always way better than nothing, and that definitely rings true of this well-rounded 7 minute workout. In checking out the routine, we definitely saw a lot of ways in which it could be improved upon. Especially when you are limited for time and looking to get the most out of your efforts, compound movements (exercises that use multiple muscle groups instead of isolating a muscle, ex; a burpee instead of tricep dips) are your best bet. But this is a great workout that will touch upon all major muscle groups and burn off a decent amount of calories in under 9 minutes (the workout comes in at just over 8 minutes, so we're not sure where the "7 minute" title comes from!).

If you keep a predominately clean diet, workout for at least 30 minutes several times a week, and use the Scientific 7 Minute Workout on the days when you're short on time, that would be a relatively smart fitness plan, but if you rely on just 7 minutes of working out each day, you may find it difficult to reach or maintain a healthy bodyweight, and you would be missing even the minimum guidelines for a healthy heart and body. Otherwise, this workout makes for an awesome mid-day wake up call/metabolism boost.

What did you think of this workout? We think that it could be made more effective with an interval of Burpees; what exercise are you most surprised to find missing from the routine?
