Display a fullscreen countdown on your gym TV or home screen. Control from your phone while you train.
Most people use a phone stopwatch during workouts — glancing down at the last second, losing their exercise form, breaking focus. A fitness timer displayed on a TV or gym screen keeps the countdown visible from anywhere in the room, so you stay in position and keep moving.
Professional gym timer systems are often fixed programs that can't be customized. Castimer lets you display a custom workout timer on any screen — phone control, fullscreen display — freeing your attention completely.
When you can see a fullscreen workout timer without looking down, your form stays consistent, your reps stay clean, and your focus stays on the movement, not on your phone screen.
No looking down at your phone between sets
No breaking your exercise form
Timer visible from anywhere in the room
Open the viewer link on any screen — a wall-mounted gym TV, a living room television, or a tablet propped on your equipment. Castimer makes it simple to cast your workout timer to the gym TV with a clear, high-contrast countdown that's visible from every angle.
Control start, pause, and reset from your phone without walking back to the screen. Whether your setup uses Chromecast, AirPlay, or HDMI, Castimer adapts to your space.

A workout timer isn't one-size-fits-all. Here are the most common training formats where a visible countdown makes a real difference.
Set your work interval and rest interval, then let the HIIT timer cycle through them automatically. Audio alerts signal each transition so you know when to push and when to recover — no need to stare at the screen.
Each station gets a different duration. A circuit timer helps you move through exercises in sequence, keeping your heart rate up and your rest periods tight.
20 seconds of all-out effort, 10 seconds of rest, repeated 8 times. A precise Tabata timer is essential — manual timing or counting out loud simply isn't accurate enough for this intensity level.
As Many Reps As Possible or Every Minute on the Minute — these formats demand strict time boundaries. A visible interval timer keeps you honest about when each round starts and ends.
30-90 seconds between sets. A rest timer for workout sessions prevents you from resting too long (losing momentum) or too short (not recovering enough). Set it and forget it.
5-10 minutes before and after your workout. A dedicated workout timer ensures you spend enough time warming up muscles and cooling down afterward — the most neglected parts of any routine.
Three simple steps to add a fitness timer to your next training session.
Go to the timer page and set the duration for your work period and rest period. Choose a theme that works well on a big screen. Set as many rounds as your workout requires.
