## What is Burst?

Burst is the interval timer built for people who actually train.
It's the only timer with TRUE random beeps — unpredictable cues that hit when you least expect them. Choose the duration, choose how many beeps, and the engine spreads them randomly through your round. No pattern, no anticipation. Just react.
RANDOM BEEPS — THE FEATURE NO OTHER TIMER GETS RIGHT
- Boxing & combat sports: shadowbox to unpredictable attack cues
- Agility drills: change direction the second the beep hits
- Conditioning: break the rhythm — your body never settles into a pattern
- Reaction training: real stimulus-response work for sport prep
BUILT DIFFERENT
- Smart intervals: work/rest, rounds, optional exercise labels
- Pyramids: auto-increasing intervals (10s - 20s - 30s - 40s...)
- Distance reps: 100m × 10, manual lap stop with split times
- Tabata, HIIT, AMRAP, EMOM-friendly templates
- Official fitness tests with officially paced audio cues: Beep Test, Luc-Léger, Yo-Yo IR1 & IR2, Cooper, demi-Cooper, 2 km, 30-15 IFT, Gacon 45/15, T-Test, FTP cycling, RSA
AUDIO CUES THAT WORK
- Distinct sounds for start, transition, 3-second warning, cue, end
- Volume boost up to 3× system max — perfect for outdoor sessions or Bluetooth speakers
- Plays alongside Spotify, podcasts, music apps — no conflict
- Vibrations option for silent training
