Workout Length and Home vs. Gym Options in Move Together

Updated today

Tighter Together is now Move Together.

We’ve refreshed the name to better reflect our mission: building strength, consistency, and community — together. 💙 Learn more about that change here.

Yes! We get it — life is busy. That’s why Move Together is designed with flexible workout options to fit your schedule.

Understanding Your Workout Time Options

Move Together gives you two time options for every workout so you can choose what fits your schedule:

  • 30–45 minutes (Express)

  • 60–75 minutes (Standard)

Both versions follow the same program and are designed to help you make progress — you’re simply choosing the amount of time and volume that works best for you each day.

The Deload Week workouts (Week 5) don't have a time to select and are designed to take around 30-45 minutes. Learn more here.


How the Time Options Work

No matter which option you choose, you’re getting an effective, intentional workout:

30–45 Minute (Express)

  • A condensed version of the workout

  • Fewer sets or rounds to save time

  • Great for busy days or when you need a quicker session

60–75 Minute (Standard)

  • The full workout with all programmed sets

  • Ideal if you have more time and want maximum volume

  • Supports progressive overload throughout the program

Both options are built from the same programming, so you can expect consistent structure, movement patterns, and results across either choice.

Workout time will vary from person to person depending on rest, goals, equipment, and experience level. All workouts are tested across a range of users to ensure they fall within these timeframes for most participants.

💡 Pro Tip: Quality > Quantity. A focused 30–45 minute workout can be just as effective as a longer session. Use the time ranges as a guide — not a rule — and focus on moving with intention.


How to Choose Your Workout Length

You can select your preferred time option at the start of each workout:

  1. Open the Moves App and tap your Move Together workout (from your Home screen or Calendar)

  2. Choose either 30–45 Min or 60–75 Min

  3. Tap Start Workout

That’s it! You can switch between options at any time depending on your schedule, energy, or goals that day.


Home vs Gym Versions

Before you start a workout in the Moves App, you’ll be able to select either a Home or Gym version of that workout. Both versions deliver the same training value — just with tools that fit your environment.

  • Home Version uses equipment you’re likely to have at home

  • Gym Version uses traditional gym machines and setups

No matter which version you choose, each workout also offers both 30–45 min (Express) and 60–75 min (Standard) formats to match your time and energy.


Why do my workouts take longer than the time shown in the app?

Totally normal — and you’re not doing anything wrong. 💙

The time listed in the app is an estimate based on a steady workout pace, but real life doesn’t always look like that. Your workouts might take a little longer depending on things like:

  • Taking longer rest breaks (especially as weights get heavier)

  • Waiting for equipment at a busy gym

  • Pausing to take care of kids, pets, or life in general

  • Moving at a more intentional pace to focus on form

It’s also important to note — Moves workouts aren’t follow-along videos where everything is designed to fit perfectly into an exact 30 or 60-minute window. You’re moving at your own pace, which is exactly how it should be.

We intentionally program workouts so that the most important lifts and exercises come first. That means even if you don’t finish every single movement, you’ve already completed the most impactful work.

If you’re short on time, you can always:

  • Reduce reps

  • Skip or shorten later rounds

  • Prioritize the earlier sections of the workout

What matters most is showing up and getting the work in — not rushing to beat the clock.
