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.

10daysofgiveaways

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:

Gymboss

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!

Gymboss2

My friends at Gymboss kindly offered five interval timers– one each to five lucky winners. It’s a great little workout buddy ๐Ÿ˜‰

Here’s how to enter:

Ready, set, go!

  2. Lily on December 6, 2013 at 6:26 pm

    Nothing beats the treadmill for me!

  3. Charline on December 6, 2013 at 6:26 pm

    I love outdoor bootcamp and am missing it terribly since it is currently 0 degrees F outside.. She uses a gymboss all the time to help kick out butts.

  4. Wendy on December 6, 2013 at 6:27 pm

    I love running, but lifting is a close second.

  5. Kelly Riffer on December 6, 2013 at 6:28 pm

    I love any cardio CLASS, it helps me amp up my intensity, otherwise I’m a long, moderate lone runner!

  6. Kara Dietsch on December 6, 2013 at 6:28 pm

    I must say my favorite method of cardio is running and I never thought I would say that! Nothing leans me out like running but I still like to break it up with some interval training too. Love your blog, keep being awesome!

  7. Audra on December 6, 2013 at 6:31 pm

    My fav is running outdoors!!

  8. Heather B on December 6, 2013 at 6:33 pm

    I’m so strange and love the treadmill! I do love long distance running though!

  9. Sio on December 6, 2013 at 6:33 pm

    Jumping jacks or long walks!

  10. Elizabeth P. on December 6, 2013 at 6:34 pm

    My favorite type of cardio is running! I can’t get enough!

  11. Laura T. on December 6, 2013 at 6:34 pm

    I’m definitely not a big fan of cardio, but CrossFit is a great cardio workout!

  12. Meggie @ My Grace-Full Life on December 6, 2013 at 6:34 pm

    Such a cool giveaway! I am a huge fan of interval training and this would be such a nice thing to have. I could stop staring at the minute hand on the gym clock!

    A Gymboss Timer….would love so I could stop keeping one eye on the clock timing out my sessions! ๐Ÿ™‚

  22. Jessica on December 6, 2013 at 6:44 pm

  24. Katie @ Talk Less, Say More on December 6, 2013 at 6:46 pm

  25. Grace on December 6, 2013 at 6:46 pm

    Running outside in the Fall!

  26. Hannah on December 6, 2013 at 6:47 pm

    I’m loving a combination of HIIT on the treadmill or elliptical – depending on how my knee is feeling!

  27. Stacey on December 6, 2013 at 6:49 pm

    I love to run!

  28. Indhu on December 6, 2013 at 6:51 pm

    Love HIIT for the high it gives me in such a short time ๐Ÿ™‚

  29. Elizabeth on December 6, 2013 at 6:51 pm

    Lately the row machine is my favorite cardio. I love that it also has a strength aspect that I don’t focus enough on.

  30. Clarice on December 6, 2013 at 6:52 pm

    Definitely running!

  31. Andrea Shaffer on December 6, 2013 at 6:52 pm

    My favorite cardio is HIITs, too! They’re short, sweet and effective.

  32. Jessica on December 6, 2013 at 6:53 pm

    Just experienced HIIT workouts…love it! I would love this timer!

  33. Colleen on December 6, 2013 at 6:54 pm

    I love running outside, and l love cardio classes like step and zumba indoors.

  34. Danielle Diede on December 6, 2013 at 6:57 pm

    That would be sooo handy! I love to do high intense cardio circuts, makes time go by faster it always seems!

  35. Beth on December 6, 2013 at 6:57 pm

    LOVE HIIT training!!!! This would be perfect!

  36. Mirna on December 6, 2013 at 6:57 pm

    I love running and spin classes!

  37. Allison on December 6, 2013 at 6:58 pm

    I love HIIT and cycling!

  38. Carrie on December 6, 2013 at 6:59 pm

    I love running outdoors but try to do some type of functional workout as well on a weekly basis. A timer would be great.

  39. Lindsey on December 6, 2013 at 7:00 pm

    Running is hands down my favorite cardio! It doesn’t help that I’ve been sidelined by stress fractures for the past few months. So for now I try to use some intense pool running or other weird cardio machines at the gym.

  40. Jordyn on December 6, 2013 at 7:04 pm

    This is the coolest gift ever! I have been looking for thees everywhere! I love interval training. My stopwatch just doesn’t cut it haha ๐Ÿ™‚

  41. Nancy on December 6, 2013 at 7:05 pm

    HIIT is definitely the best kind of cardio! Gymboss would make it perfect.

  42. Lisa @ Fresh Spinach on December 6, 2013 at 7:05 pm

    Just started running again and I’m loving the high!

  43. Meagan K on December 6, 2013 at 7:05 pm

    Ooooo what a great stocking suffer!!

  44. Amber on December 6, 2013 at 7:07 pm

    Favorite form of cardio used to be running, but after an injury the elliptical has pet me sane!

  45. Danielle on December 6, 2013 at 7:08 pm

    That would be a great gift!

  46. Tory on December 6, 2013 at 7:08 pm

    I prefer HIIT intervals but when it’s warm and I actually have some endurance I love to run outside.

  47. Allison on December 6, 2013 at 7:09 pm

    The step mill.

  48. Kristie on December 6, 2013 at 7:09 pm

    Stairmaster! I know I’m weird, but the treadmill messes with my SI joints every time, and the elliptical is spaced too wide for my hips.

  49. Verhanika on December 6, 2013 at 7:11 pm

    My favorite mode of cardio (never thought to use that word before) is to dance! I love dancing and if I can’t do it for whatever reason, which is hardly ever, then I’ll deign to do some HIIT.

  50. Jen F. on December 6, 2013 at 7:13 pm

    This would help with at-home workouts so much – I use an app for my iPhone, but like you, I tend to first check email, then facebook, etc and before I know it, I could have gotten my workout over and done in that time!
