FitTimer

iOS iPhone

A simple and attractive timer designed for tracking your workout set break and exercise times. FitTimer gives you an easy and effective way to control your break and exercise times while you are working out.

Weight training is a proven way to improve strength, lose weight and keep you healthy. Although it is good for you, it can also be quite time-consuming. A well-designed workout can take between 1 and 2 hours to complete. Some people spend even more time working out.

The main reason workouts can take so much time is because your body needs to rest between sets and exercises. But how much rest do you need? Do you know how much time you actually spend resting?

A person on average spends about 70% to 80% of their workout resting. That means that out of an hour workout you only get about 7 to 9 minutes of actual exercise. The main goal of FitTimer is to allow you to control your break time and measure the time you use for exercise. So, unless gym is your life, you probably need FitTimer to help you save time and stay fit at the same time.

So what do you get when you buy FitTimer?
