interval timer

Workout pacing device

An interval timer is a device or app that tracks alternating periods of activity and rest, commonly used for high-intensity workouts, cooking, or productivity techniques like Pomodoro.

Unlike a simple countdown timer, it cycles through multiple preset durations: The interval timer beeped every thirty seconds during her HIIT workout.
