Features
Read full description

SPLITS8 is a split tracker for HYROX-style hybrid fitness races, made for Apple Watch and iPhone. Start a workout on your watch and move to the next run or station with one swipe or a double tap. SPLITS8 records every split with your heart rate and calories, then shows you exactly where the time went. TRAIN • Build your own training from runs (200 m to 1 km) and eight stations: SkiErg, Sled Push, Sled Pull, Burpee Broad Jump, Row, Farmers Carry, Sandbag Lunges and Wall Balls. Up to 16 segments per set. • HIIT intervals and running workouts with 1 km splits. • No watch with you? Start any workout on iPhone. TEST • Full Simulation: the full race order, 8 runs and 8 stations, with optional transition (Roxzone) timing. • PFT: a six-movement fitness test with Gold, Silver and Bronze grades (SPLITS8's own guide). • Charts show how your total time, run average and each station change over time. RACE • Set a goal time and split it into targets for every segment: balanced, runner, strong, or based on your best. • Add your event and see the countdown on Home. • Your watch taps you when you fall behind target pace. REVIEW • Heart rate chart with split boundaries, time in zones, pace for every kilometre, and how much each station slows your next run. • Estimated stroke and rep counts for SkiErg, rowing and wall balls, from wrist motion. • A calendar of your workouts with weekly and monthly summaries. Plan workouts and get reminders. COMPARE (optional account) • Add friends by email or nickname and compare rankings for Full Simulation, races and each station. • Use a friend's splits as your targets. • You decide who sees your records: friends, everyone, or only you. SHARE • Put your result on your own photo as a Poster, Ticket or Block card, then save or share it. • Send a training to anyone with a link. MORE • Works with the Health app: SPLITS8 reads heart rate and active energy during workouts and saves your workouts to Health. • Your records stay on your iPhone. Back them up to a file whenever you like. • Pick the glow colour of the app. Your watch follows. • English and Korean. Everything works without an account.
