Choose your sport

Which type of timer do you need?

Repeated rounds

One work duration, one rest duration, repeated a set number of times. Use for heavy bag rounds, pad work or BJJ rolling. The session finishes after the last work period.

A single match clock

One continuous work period, with manual pauses for called stoppages when needed. Use the relevant BJJ belt format, judo contest clock or kumite preset.

Intervals and minute cues

Short work and rest sequences organize a conditioning session. Compare Tabata’s 20/10 intervals, EMOM minute cues and circuit station timing.

A multi-block plan

Different parts of one session need different clocks. The BJJ Class Plan moves through drilling, positional work and rolling. Unequal wrestling periods also use blocks. Custom timers let you build your own sequence.

How to read a timer setting

“6 × 3:00 / 1:00” means six three-minute work periods with one-minute breaks between them. It contains eighteen minutes of work and five minutes of rest, for a 23-minute sequence. Preparation, warm-up and cooldown are additional. Overtime settings describe a possible continuation rather than another guaranteed round.

The sport pages list the app’s exact presets and explain their purpose. Competition-style names identify a format; training presets are starting points you can edit. For competition preparation, check the applicable event and division.
