FitMaxx is the HIIT timer that pushes back — a loud, beautiful interval timer with a real coach built in. Pick a plan, hit start, and every interval tells you exactly what to do. Phone in your pocket, you still hear every rep. No account. No ads. No tracking. Fully offline. You're training in ten seconds. BUILT FOR INTENSITY • A full-screen timer that changes color as you move from WORK to REST, with a glowing progress ring so you read it across the room. • Countdown beeps and haptics you feel without looking at the screen. • Not just a stopwatch — every interval shows the exact exercise, so you always know the next move. 12 GUIDED PLANS Tabata Classic, Beginner Burn, 7-Minute Classic, Advanced HIIT, Sprint Intervals, Core Crusher, Fat Burn Express, Upper Body Push, Leg Day, Full Body Blast, Morning Wake-Up and Mobility Flow — from a 4-minute Tabata to a full-body blast. 40+ GUIDED EXERCISES Every move comes with an animated demo, step-by-step form cues, the common mistake to avoid, the muscles it targets and a difficulty rating. All bodyweight — no equipment, no gym, just this screen. TRACK EVERY SESSION • Automatic calorie estimates based on your body weight. • Save workouts to Apple Health with duration and calories. • Build a streak and watch your weekly minutes, rounds and calories grow. • Share a workout card when you crush a session.

No AI. No paywall. No in-app purchases. No subscription. No account. No ads. Nothing leaving your phone. Hank is a strength log. You open it, write down what you lifted, and close it. That is the whole product. Every other tracker now wants to be your coach — generating plans you did not ask for, guessing at your recovery, and charging you monthly for a chatbot in a tracksuit. Hank does none of that. It is a notebook that does the arithmetic. LOGGING • Sets, reps and weight in the fewest taps the job allows • Last session's numbers on the same screen you are logging into • Bodyweight sets • Kilograms or pounds • Edit or delete any set at any time, including in finished workouts • Repeat your last set with one tap PLANNING • Training plans, each holding as many templates as you want • Templates with target sets, reps and weight per exercise • 150+ movements, tagged by muscle group • Search that understands how lifters type: "pull ups", "db press", "pull back", a typo — it finds the movement you meant • Add your own movements • Save a finished workout back out as a template APPLE WATCH • Start a workout from a template with no phone nearby • The full movement library on your wrist • Digital Crown for reps and weight, so the only tap is "log set" — and it fits one screen on every watch size, no scrolling • The watch follows the phone: log a set on your iPhone and your wrist is already on that exercise • Live heart rate and elapsed time • Everything syncs when your phone comes back PROGRESS • Weight and volume progression, movement by movement • Personal records, including volume PRs • Muscle balance — sets per week, per muscle group, and what you keep skipping • Workout frequency and streaks • Typical rest between sets, measured from your own logs • A calendar of everything you have trained YOUR DATA • Stored on your device in a local database • No server, no account, no analytics SDK — nothing is collected, because there is nowhere to send it • Export all of it to CSV or JSON whenever you like • Apple Health sync is optional and off until you turn it on Free. All of it. There is no paid tier to upgrade to, because there is no paid tier.
