Has anybody tried the 7 min workout and does it work ? I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to exercising but I think I can manage 7 min a day .

I'm holding out for the 3.5 minute workout. Seven minutes is just unacceptable.0 -

Ya 3.5 is more my style.0 -
Yes
Burpees, squats, pushups, planking...
Everyday...
Yes it works
In the 10 second rest stages, (I change positions obv) I stretch or do extra high knee marching moves
Last week I lost 2lbs.
But I also count cals, do the 7min workout 2-3x day (usually), and do arm toning with light barebells 2-3x week0 -
I am assuming OP means 'is it a good workout, gets your heart rate up, etc'
By 'does it work'0 -

I read it as "does it work to lose weight"??

^ I think this is a very valid question.
Will it help you meet CDC recommendations? Maybe, if you use it on days when you don't have a lot of time and do longer workouts as well in the week. If it's your only workout and you only do it once a day, then no.
Will it help increase your total calorie burn for the day? Yes, but it will be minimal.
Will you lose weight by using it? Well, you don't have to workout to lose weight. MFP is designed to help people lose weight even if they can't/don't want to workout. But can it help? Well yes, providing your eating at a calorie deficit. If not, then no.
Is it better than nothing? Depends on if you like it. If you like it, yes. If you don't, then probably not worth it.0 -

Sounds like a gimmick.
Like something targeted at time poor or lazy people.
But I guess it's better than nothing so if your choice is watch tv for 7 mins or do this, this work out is probably the better option.
For me on a treadmill etc it takes a few mins to warm up/get the heart pounding. Would it be similar for this work out?

My niece does something like that; she gets a daily workout from a website called Bodyrock. I think those ones are 12 minutes in length. I was inspired by seeing photos of my niece's six pack but then I watched some of the videos and knew I could never do it!0

I know I won't be losing weight by doing this work out . I wanted to know if I could get more fit and toned by doing this0
-
Sounds like a warm up to me.0

This is all I can think of right now.
