Hiit Me Workout is the perfect app for you to challenge your workout in a new way! With many different workout modes, this is much more then the regular HIIT interval timer you are used to. You can create as many workouts as you want, and they are of course, fully customizable! *** Apple Music and Spotify *** Focus on the workout and HMW will take care of the music, select which songs to play when active and resting and we will alternate the tracks so you get that extra push when you need it. *** Roulette *** Let's gamble! Don't go for a regular workout every time it's time to sweat, with the Roulette function, the exercises will come in an random order, and the number of reps/time is up for the spinning wheel to decide! *** Discover new exercises *** It's easy to get stuck with the same exercises. No worries, we will help you with that, you choose the muscle group you want to exercise, and we propose different exercises for you! *** Deck Of Cards *** One of the workout modes it the Card Deck. You choose 4 exercises and we will shuffle the deck and give you one card at the time. The card represents an exercise and the value is equal to number of reps to perform! Both a hard workout and surprisingly fun! *** HIIT Interval timer *** Everything is fully customizable, the app can be used as a normal HIIT timer and with its intuitive design, its very easy to use. *** Perfect for Runners *** You should not only be able to choose time or reps for an interval. Distance interval is a great feature to let you combine regular exercises with your run workout. *** Statistics *** Don't forget about your history. You can track every workout and insert useful information or even take a photo! With many different graphs you can also see it all displayed nicely! *** Videos and ready workouts out of the box *** To help you with the exercises, we've created several videos displaying how to exercise in the correct way.
