HIIT Interval Training App

I found a cool app that I LOVE for exercising!

The HITT Interval Training Timer by Giorgio Regni.

I’m absolutely useless when it comes to setting a watch to do time intervals. Truth be told, I can’t set a digital watch to do much of anything. This is one of the main reasons I’ve never tried to run without my hubs. He’s my interval timer…that and he’s awfully cute. ;)

But there have been times when I wanted to go out for a walk/run while he was at work. I never could because of the nightmare it would be trying to time my walk 4 / run 1 intervals with a regular watch. That’s just too much to think about while trying to haul this body around the neighborhood.

The HIIT app makes it soooo incredibly easy! Of course, I won’t say that it can replace my hubby, but it did allow me and TT7 to go without him on Saturday.

You simply enter the intervals you want to do and it counts them down, makes a warning noise when you’re about to switch modes, and then an alarm when it’s time to change. It gives you a bar along the top to track how much of your session is complete and how much you have left. TT7 loves to watch the bar so she knows how close we are to finishing.

So easy! It has taken away another excuse I had for not getting out there and moving. Click here to give it a try!
