Phyzseek is the doctor-designed HIIT app. One advanced workout a day, around 20 minutes, designed by a physician and ACSM-certified trainer, plus run tracking for your days off. YOUR WORKOUT IS ALREADY WAITING The PHYZWOD is Phyzseek's workout of the day. No planning. Open the app and press READY. - A new advanced workout every day: intervals, AMRAPs, ladders, timed rounds and runs - Programmed so your different energy systems are trained in balance - Each exercise switches to the equipment you own, with an easier version one tap away - A video demo and coaching cues for every exercise - Miss a day? The last 12 days stay open THE PACER Set the result you want to beat, a time or a number of reps: your own record, a competitor's result, or a target rank. The pacer shows where you should be at every moment, so you push from the first rep to the last. Voice cues and a bell keep your eyes off the screen. LIVE HEART RATE Connect a Bluetooth chest strap or a watch that broadcasts heart rate. Your heart rate shows in the color of your zone, with percent of max. Zones are set from your own maximum heart rate. After the workout, see your heart-rate graph and how fast your heart rate recovers. COMPETITORS AND LEADERBOARDS Add competitors and see their results ranked with yours on every workout. Get an alert when a competitor trains. Leaderboards for PhyzioLevel, workouts, calories and PhyzTest, by age and gender. ONE FITNESS SCORE PhyzioLevel ranks you on Intervals, Lactic Loading and Endurance workouts as a percentile against other athletes. It rises as your results improve, which is a measure of fitness. Dashboards chart it alongside intensity, calories, weight and resting heart rate. MY RUNS Track runs on your days off: GPS distance, mile splits, pace, heart-rate graph, recovery and heart-rate drift, with a runs leaderboard. TRAIN YOUR WAY Not ready for the PHYZWOD? Beginner and intermediate levels, no-equipment workouts, and build-your-own workouts. PHYZTEST measures your mile, push-ups, sit-ups, squats and burpees so you can see progress.
