Are you bored with your workout routine? Do you want to use the great outdoors to train rather than on a machine? Do you want to make the perfect workout routine which only you can make? Do you want great customizable features, some completely unavailable in other apps? Then, Yes! This is the app you need! Create unique, customizable intervals and workouts. Create remarkably advanced workouts by putting together easy-to-configure tasks. You can build a complete, custom, & uncommon workout in under a minute. From the basic standards: * H.I.I.T. * Tabata * 7 minute workout * etc. To the uncommon: * Quarter mile running intervals * Calorie-based intervals * Pace-maintenance * Speedwork * Heart rate zone training * Altitude-climbing * And more * etc. And, you can put any combination of them in the same workout. For example, you could make a workout with quarter-mile running intervals at race pace, with quarter-mile recovery in-between; and include a warmup and cool-down (sample included). As you perform your workout over time, tweak it to your hearts-content. Rather than just quarter-miles, why not add a set of form-enhancing 200s? Or maybe add a couple of half-mile segments at the end? And: * Configurable display (phone & watch) * Spoken cues to keep you focused * Works on your Apple Watch * Close your Activity Rings! * Apple Health is supported * iCloud backup * Full history —— EXCEPTIONAL, POWERFUL, CUSTOMIZABLE Create intervals like never before: * Multiple-workout types (eg., biking & running, or skiing and archery, or hiking and meditation, or rowing, stair-climbing, & elliptical, etc.) * Distance-based * Time-based * Step-count-based * & more Stand-alone watch app * Leave your phone at home * Control music within watch app * Full route tracking * Custom display Close your Rings * Course * Heart rate * Workout name * Elevation * & more Apple Health * Read and write relevant health data Speaks * Interval names * Interval expectations * Mile/Kilometer markers * Encouragement History * Specific details * Including color-coded course * Backed up to iCloud More * Build your workout to your needs * Choose what’s shown on the screen * Name your workouts * Choose colors and names of interval tasks Fully operational samples included * Duathlon (running & biking) * HIIT * Tabata * 7 minute workout * Simple walk * & others Icons by Icons8
