Gymboss Interval Timer and Stopwatch - Black/Blue SOFTCOAT

Easy set up and works nicely

This timer does what's expected and gets the job done. I clip it to the back for my hat and do my workout

A running friend had this timer & loved it so I purchased the same. Easy to use & change intervals. The quiet beep is sometimes hard to hear if there is loud traffic but you can feel the vibrate or use loud beep. My only complaint is that on long marathon training runs with shorter intervals, it only allows 99& it stopped well before my run completed. It was easy enough to restart; not a dealbreaker. Would recommend.

I've only had this a couple of weeks but absolutely love this. I've nick named it "The Motivator" I've been walking, jogging and doing push -ups for about 5 years now. I'm 59 years old and am very routine oriented. I've read about interval training and have always wanted to do sprints and walk but have had some concern and hesitation. Although I do not have any knee problems I just didn't know if my body could handle it. Anyway a few weeks ago I decided to try it. So when at the park I had no time keeper but tried to count 15 seconds while sprinting and 1 minute rest and repeated. After this one lap of that I walked a few laps. I felt so good and invigorated. The next two day's when I went back to the park I did my usual 2 lap walk then did 2 laps of sprints and walk and a final lap of walking (3 mile total). This is fantastic but I know I needed a time keeper, so I looked here on Amazon and found this Gymboss Interval timer. This timer comes with very good instructions to teach how to set it up and use. I absolutely love it. In the few weeks I've adjusted my sprint time from 12 to now 15 seconds keeping the one minute rest. I've also increased the amount of sprints I do in total. This timer actually is motivating me. I can't wait to get back to the park to do my exercise. It has helped to revitalize my workout routine. It's giving me goals to attain and makes my workout fun. It is very light in weight yet feels sturdy. It has a very strong clip with good grab. I clasp it onto my shorts and feel confident that it won't fall off. The audible beeping or vibrate modes (or both at the same time) work very well for the interval training. It is also a stopwatch which I use during my walking laps, and a clock. Great price for all the value it has brought to my workout. Wish I would've gotten this years ago. I highly recommend this timer to anyone looking to revitalize their workout or who just wants a sturdy multi-functional timer.

This little device is very useful for timing sets of exercises. You can set the number of reps you want to do, and how long of an interval you want to rest between, and it will buzz to tell you when to stop/start each repetition and will also buzz for a longer time to let you know when you have completed all the reps. Easy to use.

I needed a timer to so some intervals during workouts. I have an app on my phone, but it wasn't convenient since I like to use that to pump music into my music server. So wanted a standalone timer that was easy to setup and carry around. This Gymboss is pretty easy to set up - in fact easier than the phone app I have. One minor gripe (I have several with the phone app!) is the awkward end of routine timer. You have to press the left-side button twice to stop the alert once the routine is finished. Nice additions are the rubberized finish on the timer and the clip on the back. The fact that it runs on a AAA battery makes it easy to get new batteries as well. All in all a great timer for performing intervals or pretty much any timing need.

I use this little device as an interval timer. I have set it up to vibrate every twenty minutes for twelve hours. I have very dry eyes and must keep them hydrated with drops during the day. Not drinking enough fluids affects them also. So every 20 minutes I get a reminder to use my eye drops and take at least a sip of water. I also use it as a reminder to unclench my jaw. (Strange the effect modern life has on the jaw.) Very useful device, but there are some cons: I have not been able to change the clock. It seems to be stuck 7 hours ahead - which I think would be Ukranian time. Strange. The buzz when it vibrates is a bit stronger than necessary. If I leave it on a table rather than keep it in a pocket, it makes quite a racket and is a shock to others who might be in the room. It was really strange to set up. Instructions were cryptic, so it was a combination of trial and error and inspired guess-work. But it is working and doing its job and my eyes are feeling better.

I really like the Gym Boss timer itself—it’s durable, versatile, and works great for interval training. However, after about a year of use, the body of the timer develops an annoying sticky residue that’s extremely hard to clean. I’m not sure if the coating is breaking down or what, but it feels like a molasses-like film that even shows fingerprint impressions. I use these in a commercial gym setting, and the residue is unpleasant enough that I often grab one and then look for an alternative just to avoid the sticky mess. I’ve even bought replacements after this issue appears, which is frustrating because the timer itself is solid. If the manufacturer could fix this coating problem, it would be an easy 5-star product. Until then, I can only give it 3 stars

A must have gadget for interval training.

Got this for getting back into running to set up walk/run intervals. I'm no longer wear a watch and didn't want to carry my phone or strap it to my arm. Also my phone does not have the specific functionality of this little device where you can set up two intervals of different times as well as a specific number of repeats. I considered getting the wrist or arm band but after reading other reviews decided not to and I really don't think I'd find any benefit in either of them. The Gymboss is just the right size to hold comfortably in my palm, but also clips very securely to any piece of clothing. The clip has a good "grabber" on it so it's not going to fall off even while running. I liked the different volume levels and vibrate option so I can made adjustments if my running environment is noisy (ie city traffic) or quiet (trails). Setup was simple and easy to understand. This device does exactly what it should, no more and no less, making it the perfect purpose built interval timer. I would buy it again without hesitation.
