'You may have seen this article about how sports scientists have devised a 7 (actually more like 8 if you include the short breaks) minute workout that is supposed to be as effective as a much longer cardio workout. Here\'s the article:  http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/05/09/the-scientific-7-minute-workout/  You\'re supposed to do each of the 12 exercises for 30 seconds each, with 10 seconds in between. The other main thing is that you\'re supposed to keep your energy level at a 8-9 the whole time; in other words - PUSH IT.  I tried it a few times and found that it was difficult to get the timing right. I was using my phone and it was seriously interrupting my flow to keep checking how much time had elapsed while doing each exercise. So I decided to make this video. It sings to you, tries to inspire you with funny metaphors for each exercise, and most importantly, it gives you audio cues with regards to timing.   USE IT! YAY! LET\'S ALL GET IN SHAPE!  16 exercises 30 seconds each 10 seconds in between the first is jumping jacks 5 4 3 2  Flap your wings Flap flap flap your wings, oh   You\'re a little bird Just learning to fly Your mama is pushing you out of the tree  Out of the nest And into the sky It\'s time to be what you were born to be  You are holding up this wall If you didn\'t hold it It would fall Hold it up Hold up the wall with your super strength  The people in the building That you\'re holding up Depend on you And they admire and love You so hold this wa   You are a bridge  Sturdy and strong A troll lives beneath you And he sings this song Tra la la Tra la la I\'m the troll that takes care of this bridge He likes to futz with Your girders and struts  He improves on their design  Tra la la Then he takes a rest And you do  2 3 4 rest   push so hard on that door that\'s been closed for so long you don\'t know what\'s behind that door what\'s behind that door, better push it  there\'s lava beneath your head better  sit up so you don\'t burn your head you\'re in mordor  going to see the guru Climbing up the stairs her legendary temple is at the top  just a few more just a few more she\'s gonna tell me the meaning of life she\'s gonna teach me all the secrets now we\'re at the top time to rest   Squat like you\'re taking a poo  You\'re sexy Getting out of the pool Backwards really sexy   You\'re a plank on a pirate ship gonna walk you Craken actin like like he\'s gonna talk to   the captain but the captain sick says walk that plank it\'s 3 feet thick  your the plank on a pirate ship over water the first mate slept with the captains daughter now he\'s gonna sleep with the fishes I\'m sure that he is quite delicious   Watch that pirate sink down into the sea there he goes  violence is bad but sometimes you get really really mad and you just want to punch somebody just really want to punch somebody punch somebody There they are they\'re right in front of you attack them because what they did was so so wrong what they did was very wrong  You\'re a giraffe With a long long neck And you reaching up high For the juiciest leaf On the tastiest tree In all of the territory That you roam   Reaching up higher Higher and higher You can smell that juicy leaf And you\'re filled with desire Stretch it on out  Stretch it on out  Do the burt reynolds pose if you want to take off your clothes nobody would blame you In fact everybody would join you Just let it all hang out  http://jonathanmann.net  FOLLOW me on Twitter:  http://twitter.com/songadaymann  LIKE me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/songadaymann  CALL my Google Voice #: (510) 402-6081  SEND me stuff the old fashioned way:  Jonathan Mann 144 N. 7th St.  PMB 128 Brooklyn, NY 11249  FOLLOW me on SoundCloud: http://soundcloud.com/jonathanmann  FOLLOW me on Instagram:  My username is jonathanmann  BE on my mailing list:  http://tinyletter.com/jonathanmann  DO what they do on Google+:  http://bit.ly/mannplus  LISTEN to my podcast: http://www.alwaysmaking.us'
