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!
xoxo

I’m a new runner (been running for a year) and I’m really loving it. But I can also dig a good fun class like Zumba 🙂
I’m a long distance runner, so that’s my favorite form!
My favorite cardio is definitely HIIT, but since reading your blog, I’ve tried and fallen in love with zumba! Thanks for the introduction! Its a fun way to kill my workout!
Oh man I’ve wanted one of these for a while now! I love HIIT-type stuff!
HIIT workouts are GREAT!!! Short and sweet (or sweaty!).
I love spin and love/hate running 😉
Love this! It would come in handy at the gym. Thanks for the giveaway!
I have the phone app but I agree that this would be so much better, no distractions, etc.
You introduced me it hiit which I do often but in general i enjoy running! Thanks for the intro! 🙂
I have to say my favourite mode of Cardio is running just because I’ve learned how to challenge myself. I am definitely warming up to interval training though and hope to set some goals around it in 2014.
I love running short distances and doing yoga and zumba!
this is my fave with zuzanna!
my favorite pure cardio is a 3ish mile run outside. I get some fresh air, listen to new music or a podcast, and sweat!
I loooove turbo kickboxing!!! Along with hiit cardio!
I love HIIT and Tabata even more. This is perfect for me. Though I use my phone app a lot since all of my workouts are done at home. It would be good for running since I don’t like to run with my phone. I’m one of the few people on the face of the earth not on fb. So this is all I’ve got. Thanks for the giveaways!
LOVE LOVE LOVE HIIT workouts!!! This would be the best accessory to help perform even better during the intervals!
Running!
Spin for me!
Great thanks
I love sprints in the treadmill
I do 2 min jog 1 min sprint and repeat 10 times for 30 min. Goes by so quick!
I love spinning! I have tried to love running but it’s been really hard to even like it some days.
My favorite cardio is hiking! I live in Boulder, CO, so there is are so many fantastic trails right outside my door 🙂
Running is my favorite form of running, though I also love my Fusion class, combo of weights and cardio!
Love love running!
Great giveaway, thanks Gina! I would love to win this as a way to put the darn phone down at the gym!
My favorite cardio form is riding my new road bike! I’ve also recently joined a running group and the motivation from the group is quickly helping me to learn to enjoy running.
Hiking is my favorite cardio!
Love HIIT training, and have been thinking of the Gymboss timer for a while now. Thanks for the giveaway!
I’ve been wanting one of these! I love spin class, the elliptical, and cardio/strength classes. Really into kettlebell workouts too! 🙂
Running!
I like the elliptical. But I always go back to good old fashioned running!
Running and HIIT!
I’ve been doing a spin class weekly and I love it and look forward to it every week. It helps mix up my cardio from running and the stepmill (stepmill is a close 2nd to favorite–hurts so good!)
Perfect for use with our speed bag!
Plain old running gets the job done!
I love zumba!
I like Zumba and spin classes.
I love hiit
I love to mix it up. Running, HIIT, ellipticals, Zumba….I just love them all!
Running or. Bootcamp class
I need this!
My favorite is the elliptical, but I’m slowly becoming a running convert
I love kickboxing! Really, I love to try all forms of cardio to find what works best for me at that time. Exercise keeps me sane!
Running, biking, crossfit, dancing!! I can’t decide!
I love running outdoors and giving myself a break and time to just zone out.
I love spin and tabatas! I use the gym boss app on my phone! This would be perfect for our home gym! We just ordered a spin bike!
By the time I make it to the gym or outside for a run, my phone battery is mostly pretty empty. This timer would be perfect for it!
HIIT is my absolute favorite to get in a quick, intense and effective workout! The gymboss would be a perfect substitute for my phone, which I also hate taking with me to the gym.
I LOVE long jogs on the trail. When I’m short for time, I’ve been loving the row machine as well as your quick HIIT workout routines.
I used a tabata timer app on my phone yesterday, and it just got way too complicated trying to set that, plus manage my Pandora app, plus get interrupted if my phone rang.
I like taking a spin class and using our elliptical at home.
