Gymboss Interval Timer & Stopwatch — SoftCoat Black/Blue, Pocket-Sized with Vibration & Clip

Gymboss SoftCoat is a pocket-sized interval timer and stopwatch that delivers repeatable chime and vibration alerts for HIIT, Tabata, circuit training, and more.

Designed to fit where a pager once did, the Gymboss SoftCoat combines interval timing, a stopwatch, and a clock in a small, rugged package. It runs on a single AAA battery, clips securely to clothing, and offers adjustable alarms and auto-repeat so you can focus on performance instead of timing. The SoftCoat finish gives a grippy, sweat-resistant surface for workouts that push limits.

How does this timer manage interval training effectively?

The Gymboss times one or two alternating intervals with precision from 2 seconds up to 99 minutes, making it flexible for sprints, recovery, and everything between. You can set the unit to repeat the cycle up to 99 times so a coach or athlete can run a full session without restarting the device.

• Dual-interval programming for work/rest or two-phase sessions.
• Repeat cycles up to 99 times for long routines.
• Adjustable alarm length: 1, 2, 5, or 9 seconds.
• Choose between audible chime and silent vibration alerts.

What features help when you’re training hard and can’t look at a screen?

Vibration and clear chimes notify you when intervals change so you don’t have to watch the display. The ergonomic SoftCoat finish helps retain grip even when your hands are sweaty, and the secure removable belt clip keeps the timer within reach.

• Strong vibration mode for noisy gyms or outdoor workouts.
• Chime option for audible cueing in quiet environments.
• Removable clip to attach to waistband, gear, or equipment.
• Compact size that won’t get in the way during movement.

How durable and portable is the Gymboss SoftCoat?

About the size of a small pager, the SoftCoat is engineered to withstand sweat and light impacts encountered during training. It uses a single, easy-to-replace AAA battery so you can keep it powered for months depending on usage, and its tough casing protects the controls from accidental knocks.

• Compact dimensions: approximately 2.25 x 0.5 x 1.75 inches.
• Sweat- and impact-resistant SoftCoat housing.
• Runs on one AAA battery (not included) for simple maintenance.
• Lightweight and pocketable for travel and gym bags.

Can the Gymboss replace separate stopwatch and clock devices?

Yes — it includes stopwatch and clock functions in addition to interval programming, reducing the need for multiple timing devices. The integrated tools give a single, compact solution for timing sets, rounds, and total workout duration.

• Built-in stopwatch for timing single efforts or sets.
• Standard clock function for session scheduling and timing accuracy.
• Simple controls let you switch modes quickly between intervals, stopwatch, and clock.

Who is this for: Gymboss SoftCoat suits athletes, coaches, and fitness enthusiasts who want a reliable, no-frills timing tool for HIIT, CrossFit, running, martial arts, weightlifting, and circuit training. It’s ideal for people who need repeatable intervals, tactile alerts, and a durable, portable device that stays out of the way during intense movement.
