Circuit and class intervals

Free Workout Round Timer

Build a round-based workout timer for circuits, bootcamps, mobility blocks, strength stations, and class finishers. Adjust work, rest, and rounds so the timer matches the session you are actually coaching.

Built for this job

Coaches can run circuits without repeatedly resetting a basic countdown.

Participants know whether they are working, resting, or moving stations.

Custom intervals cover strength, conditioning, mobility, and class finishers.

Presets that match real work

Start from a timer people already understand.

Each preset has a clear use case, duration, and workflow. That makes the page useful for search visitors immediately, and gives professional users a natural path into XTimer rooms when they need separate controller and viewer devices.

Professional setup

Use the simple timer first, then graduate to controlled timing.

Leave transition time when people need to move between stations.

Use larger displays for group classes so participants do not crowd the device.

Shorten work periods before shortening rest when form starts to break down.

Save complex multi-device class timing for XTimer controlled rooms.
