While the kettle boils
Two minutes of calf raises at the counter, done before it clicks off.
Short bursts · at home · little or no equipment
Your day is full of gaps.
Burn something in them.
BonusBurn gives busy adults a two-minute burst, or a five or ten minute combo of moves, that fits the spot you're standing in: the kitchen while the kettle boils, the desk between meetings, the floor in front of the telly. Calories, XP and streaks add up in the background.
Subscription required. No free trial. From $7.99 a month (US dollars; checkout shows your local price with VAT).

Calories use the exercise, elapsed time, age, sex, height and weight. They remain a modelled estimate, not a sensor measurement.
No weight-loss promises
We will never tell you how much you will lose. Moving more in the gaps of your day is the whole claim.
You control when it ends
Finish early and BonusBurn records the elapsed time with reduced calories and XP. Cancel and nothing is logged.

Common questions
Read all FAQs →What is a burst?
One exercise, sized to the time you have and the place you are in. You choose a duration and a location, and BonusBurn hands you a single thing to do.
What is a combo?
For a five or ten minute gap, BonusBurn lines up four different moves with a short rest between them, spread across different muscles. Swap or skip any move; each one is logged as you finish it, and the whole combo counts as one session.
Can I save a combo I liked?
Yes. Tap "Save as a routine" when a combo finishes and give it a name. Your routines live on the Move tab next to a few starter routines, along with a one-tap way to repeat your last combo. Set a reminder on a saved routine and tapping it opens that routine ready to go.
What are programmes?
A programme is a short daily session for a few weeks, such as Desk Reset (ten sessions at your desk) or Floor Core (twelve on a mat). Home shows today's session, the next one unlocks the following day, and each move gets longer or shorter as you rate it.
Do I need equipment?
No. Most moves need nothing more than ordinary furniture: a chair, a worktop, a patch of floor. If you own dumbbells, a band or a walking pad, BonusBurn can include those too.
Am I fit enough for this?
The library is beginner-first. Finish early and BonusBurn records only the time, calories and XP you actually did; cancel and nothing is logged. If you have a condition affecting exercise, check with a clinician first.
Where can I use BonusBurn?
Use BonusBurn in your web browser. One account keeps your subscription and progress together.
The kettle takes two minutes anyway.
