Stop overthinking fitness. Just show up. Bare Minimum is the anti-perfectionist fitness app. No gym required. No equipment needed. No guilt trips. Just 90 seconds of movement — because showing up is the only metric that matters. THE WHOLE IDEA Most fitness apps want you to train harder, longer, more. Bare Minimum flips that. We believe small steps count more than big plans, and consistency beats intensity every single time. HOW IT WORKS • Pick from 3 tiers: Bare Minimum (1-3 min), Decent Human (5-10 min), or Overachiever (15-20 min) • Choose exercises designed for real life: in bed, on a chair, against a wall, or while waiting for the microwave • Complete your workout. Earn XP. Build your streak. • That's it. Really. FEATURES INCLUDED WITH YOUR SUBSCRIPTION • Life Happens Shields — Bank rest days that protect your streak when life gets in the way • Comeback XP — Missed a day? Come back and earn bonus XP. Zero judgment. • Streak tracking that celebrates consistency, not perfection • Achievements that reward showing up, not burning out • Gentle daily reminders (kind nudges, not guilt trips) • Video-guided exercises you can do anywhere WORKOUT CATEGORIES • Bed Moves — Don't even get up • Chair Flow — Stay seated • Wall Support — Just lean • Waiting Games — While the microwave hums • Stealth Stretches — Public-friendly • Commercial Break — TV-length routines OUR PHILOSOPHY Small steps count more than big plans. Consistency over intensity. Life happens — shields protect your progress. Showing up is the only metric that matters. Because showing up is enough.
