Why I Finally Started Using the 12 Minute Athlete App: Kersten's Story

Hey athletes! This post is by 12MA team member Kersten and her own perspective on the 12MA app. As always, I hope you find it helpful.

You probably know that 12 Minute Athlete has a fitness app. But do you have it—and do you use it?

If not, I’d like to give you a few good reasons why you should consider getting it and actually start using the app.

At 12 Minute Athlete, we’ve always wanted to make working out accessible to everyone, which is why we have hundreds of free workouts available on our workouts page. We post three to four new workouts on the blog every week, so there should always be enough options to choose from and keep boredom at bay.

At the same time, we also recommend people get the app, because it makes working out even easier.

Some Things You Might Not Know About the 12MA App

As usual, during our annual reflections post this past year, we closed the year with a short survey giving you guys the chance to give us questions or feedback about the site, app, and the future of 12 Minute Athlete.

What we realized after looking through the responses is that although we do tutorial posts on cool features every now and then, we haven’t addressed specific questions about the 12 Minute Athlete HIIT Workouts App in quite a while.

So we thought it would be helpful for you guys if we put together responses for some of the most common questions we get about the app. We hope you find them useful!

Note: Keep in mind that most of the answers below apply to iPhone only. We are still working on bringing our Android app up to speed—if you know any awesome Android developers, please send them our way!

Here are some useful things you might not know about the 12 Minute Athlete app:

In case you (intentionally) forgot, tomorrow is the start of the October 100 Burpee Challenge weekend. Get excited!

Since it’s a new feature in the app, I thought it would be cool to show you guys who are already Super Athlete members (or are considering joining in the future) how to easily keep track of your 100 Burpee Challenge PRs and times in the app. It’s pretty simple, but if you’re not familiar with all the features yet, you might have missed it.
