"HIIT Field" is a simple but useful High Intensity Interval Training timer.
Workout structure
A HIIT workout comprises a sequence of cycles composed of base cycles followed by a warmup and a cool down phase. Each base cycle is composed to a high insensitivity effort period followed by a moderate effort period. At the end of the base cycles, a rest is scheduled. A cycle is composed to the base cycles followed by the rest time.
Example:
1) 10 minutes warmup
2) 4 tabata runs ( 20 high effort followed by 10 second moderate effort. Repeated 8 times. At the end a pause of 1 minute)
3) 2 minutes cool down.
The configuration would be:
- Warmup duration (seconds) = 600 (10 minutes)
- Main cycle: iterations = 4
- Base cycle: iterations = 8
- Base cycle: high effort duration = 20
- Base cycle: low effort duration = 10
- Main cycle: pause duration = 60 (1 minute)
- Cool down duration (seconds): 120 (2 minutes)
Implementations
The timer is implemented as data field. It can be added to any activity. The start of each phase is announced by an acoustic signal, a vibration sequence and by switching the back-light on. 3 second before each phase change a sequence of vibrations permits to announce it. The background colors of the field permits also to quickly see the current phase.
