The High Intensity Interval Training Buddy

Platform: Android

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is a difficult thing to do. To work your muscles so vigorously within such a short time frame is both admirable if you manage to pull it off, and extremely tiresome. But you know what's even more tiresome? Trying to count the intervals properly; this is where Tabata Timer comes to your sweaty rescue. 

It's a very simple app. You can set up the exact number of seconds you want your high intensity and low intensity intervals to last. You can also set up a small preparation period right before starting off. It allows you to set the number of cycles you want, as well as the number of sets and how many seconds of rest you'd like to have between the sets and lets you set up a cool down section at the end. If you have different exercises, good news: you can save your workout schedule too so you don't have to set everything up over and over. Finally, to top it all off with the icing, it even shows you the total time and number of intervals for the workout.

To unlock certain features, you need to go buy the premium version, but there's little that can go wrong with this app. If you need something like this, you'd better HIIT it up ASAP.
