10 Days of Giveaways: Day 5 (Gymboss)
Last giveaway of week 1! This one is a product I’ve used for a few years now: Gymboss.
As you guys know, I’m a huge fan of HIIT training and interval-style workouts. I like to time different segments as it’s a great way to change things up and really challenge myself. (Like when I increased the HIIT time from 30-40 seconds hard the other day— it killed me in the best way possible.) I have a timer app on my phone, which is fine to use at home, but when I’m at the gym, guess where my phone is? In a locker. When I go to the gym, I have a small amount of time to get in and get out, and I like to do it without the distraction of a phone. If I have it, I’m much more tempted to check my email, see what people are saying on Twitter, aka waste time.
Gymboss timer to the rescue:
It’s extremely user-friendly, and has a few sound settings. My favorite is to clip it on my shirt and set it on vibrate, so it doesn’t distract other gym-goers. I’ve also used it while teaching classes, especially since the resort is cell phone free and it looks more professional to use an actual timer. It’s one of my favorite workout tools, especially because it’s so inexpensive, and it makes a perfect stocking stuffer for a fitness-loving friend. They recently released some cool new colors, too!
My friends at Gymboss kindly offered five interval timers– one each to five lucky winners. It’s a great little workout buddy 😉
Here’s how to enter:
This one has a quick turnaround as it ends tomorrow night at midnight! The lucky winners will be announced in my Sunday am post.
Ready, set, go!

I love running, and just started adding HITT to my weekly workouts
Spinning!
I’ve been a dancer my whole life so that’s definitely my favorite cardio – running is probably a close second though. Both of them totally help me get out of my head 😉
Gymboss rocks! Tabata is SO much easier with it as well as interval training. Love it.
I love spinning!!
I love me a good zumba class!!
My favorite form of cardio is barre yoga! Who knew such small movements can give you such big results!
Running & HIIT!
I was only a runner for years. I started falling in love with HIIT training after trying Insanity. Now I love making up my own HIIT workouts, or trying ones I find on Pinterest or blogs, like yours!
Swimming!
marathon training!
My favorite cardio is a good ‘ole run. I’ve been missing it sorely since I’ve been injured most of the year, but I’m finally on the mend and starting to (very slowly!) incorporate it back into my routine.
I love the idea of this timer! I have been looking for something to aid me through HIIT and the fact that it can just vibrate instead of making a noise or having to stare at it is awesome. I will probably put this on the Christmas list this year in the (likely) event that I don’t win. Thanks for posting this!
I love spinning but want to do more HIIT training with weights
I love HIIT! It’s hard for me to do steady state on machines these days, I get so bored, HIIT makes things fast and fun!
I am just getting into HIIT for weight loss so this would be such a blessing!
I love running, but this would definitely help with my interval training!!
I love spinning but I often take breaks from the class due to arthritis in my foot. The Gym Boss looks like such an amazing tool to use in the gym, at home or in my hotel room on a work trip!
Use a phone app, but I’ve seen this on body rock. Would love to have one!
I still love just running outdoors – a timer would be great for outdoor HIIT.
I am recuperating from an injury, so the elliptical is my go-to machine right now. I have even added some HIIT intervals to my elliptical workouts to try to get myself back in form. Fast and furious HIIT workouts are great!
I love zumba if I can make it to a class with my crazy work hours!
Running, running and more running! It is the one thing that challenges me most!!
I love HIIT workouts and hiking!
Zumba or kayaking…the kinda thing where you are having so much fun you don’t notice an hour has gone by. Can’t beat fun AND good for you.
I love this!! I’m a huge fan of HIIT training as well! You rock!
I have started training with the TRX suspension ropes and I absolutely love it!!
I love running, but I don’t always have tons of time, so I like to throw some HIIT in there with a Run/walk! I usually estimate my time on/off- one of these timers would be awesome!
HIIT workouts on the TM, alternating with some strength/plyometrics! I love making up my own HIIT workouts too:)
Running!
Running definitely!
Running is my go-to cardio, but I also like BodyAttack!
I love HITT training and hiking as my cardio. Pretty much complete opposites!
Zumba!! 🙂
This is new to me, the gymboss is a great idea!
I love HIIT training!
My favorite form of cardio is hiking or snowboarding, though I usually just run.
Would love to try this!
You’re right – this is a great gift idea too!
I love to run! I’ve heard great things about the gymboss timer.
I love running!
For the extra motivation to not take too long of breaks when I’m doing HIIT, I’ve been wanting one of these for a while! They seem so convenient!
Cool idea!!
Spinning…with an awesome bunch of people at 5:30 am
Oh how I would love this! Especially trying to work out more on my own this year!
Zumba!
Running, for sure!
I love the erg (aka rowing machine)! And cardio kickboxing classes.. hard to keep up with all the dance-y moves, but so much fun! 🙂
My favorite form of cardio is running!
This is awesome! Running is my favorite mode of cardio, but I also love circuit workouts!
YaY! I have been wanting one of these! 🙂 I love HIIT for sure!
