Nice idea, but I do take a bit of an issue with ideas like these. More often than not, they serve as a fig leaf and give the people using them a false sense of comfort and achievement.

There's a reason sports programming exists, and a certain level of intensity, planning and rotation is necessary for results.

A better thing to follow for at least a modicum of impact is http://www.7-min.com

Anyone who's done any amount of exercise worth the designation will have to do a few rounds of this to actually get into heavy breathing territory, but it's a (structured) start!

Thanks for your comments and the link to 7-min.com which looks like a very nice program.

I understand your concern of the false sense of achievement and that isn't my intent. I know several people who could not complete the 7 min workout no matter what they tried, and my app is supposed to be a lower level exercise program. It's still in development but the plan is for the app to be "smart" and gradually increase the workouts as the user is ready.

Refreshing the page shouldn't mark the task as completed.

Thanks for the tip. I will fix this.

the refresh issue has been fixed. thanks for your input.

I'd like to see an ExtremelyEasyDrinking.com
