Great for strength and high-intensity training

The construction takes a while to learn, but after a few workouts you'll get the hang of it. I use it to time my sets and rests during strength training and I love it for HIIT workouts, it makes it much easier to keep track of the rest to rep ratio. I especially like the vibrating alert that comes with the wrist strap to let me know when my time is up when I'm wearing headphones and the people around me can't hear anything at all.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Hard to say

Great timer/great packaging

Great timer. Its sound ("plus" +) is quite loud, but I don't have any other timers to compare. It should also be more water and sweat resistant, but haven't tested the thing yet. The strap is worth it. Update 05/23/19: I've been using this timer for about 6-8 months, about 2 times a week and I can say that it's a great thing! Has held up so far, fairly loud and great for HIIT/Circuit/Boxing MMA rounds.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Problem

Perfect timer for HIIT, bracelet needs some work

I have one, love it, my daughter took it and I bought the charge version for myself. This is the perfect training tool for HIIT and is very easy to use. The watch strap is useless as the timer cannot be pulled down to lock it there. It may fly out of the harness when running. I did a thorough inspection and removed two small legs from the strap (the red bikes in the photo). After that the problem was fixed. The strap material could be softer (with silicone?).

Pros
  • Wow
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Moderate learning curve

Given the relatively rich functionality and limited number of buttons, learning the device will take some time. I use this with clients and quickly found that it cannot be reliably understood without spontaneous instructions. everything, but I would recommend future buyers to be aware of this if they intend to use the device in a limited time environment. All in all, this is a phenomenal device! Having a clip and strap as options is fantastic, and both work quite comfortably.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • So-so

A runner's best friend

I was running when I was 20 and my self-esteem was tied to my watch. Now that I'm much older and running again, I needed something to help me run smarter without getting hung up on results. Do I really need to know every element of an expensive watch? Not really. I need to know when to take breaks and when to run again. Gymboss Plus allows me to run smarter, improve over time, and know I'm the best runner every time I step outside. The fact that it's cheap is a bonus. I like the big face for…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not automatic

Wonderful! Wonderful! Great!

I LOVE this timer. It's so useful to have on my wrist! I can do physical therapy exercises and not count to 30! I love that it calls once to let you know when the time is up. There is no constant annoying calling that keeps popping up. It's so easy to just hit the start button again here while stretching. I also like that it takes a regular sized battery - an AAA battery. The screen is big. Wow. I haven't tried any of the other functions yet. I think it should allow me to do HIIT exercises as…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Overall OK, but...

Works great and helps me a lot with my running

This is a great timer and wristband combo; Wearing it on my wrist, I can feel its vibration, so I can listen to music while running without worrying about a beep. I do interval runs and running/walking at the right time helps me a lot. Unlike some others I've had, this one is waterproof enough not to burn myself from sweat - I was even caught out in a sudden downpour once, and it still works great. I started triathlon at 55 and am now training for my first half marathon at 65. This is made…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Fits
