Climbing timer

Pick a workout and press Start. Beeps mark each hang, rest and round, so you can train without looking at the screen. Includes hangboard repeaters (7 seconds on, 3 off), max hangs, 4×4 bouldering and competition rotations.

Common climbing protocols

Workout	Work	Rest
Repeaters	7 s hang × 6	3 s between hangs, about 3 min between sets
Max hangs	10 s on a hard hold	2 to 3 min
4×4	4 boulder problems in a row	About the same time as the climbing, 4 rounds
Competition bouldering	4 or 5 min per problem	The same length between problems

Fingerboard training stresses tendons that adapt slowly. Warm up well, build up gradually, and stop if your fingers hurt. For other intervals, use the interval timer or the EMOM timer.

Questions people ask

What is a 7:3 repeater?

A hangboard set where you hang for 7 seconds and rest for 3, six times in a row, usually followed by a few minutes of rest before the next set.

How long should I rest between boulder attempts?

For hard attempts, about 3 minutes. Shorter rests build endurance; longer rests let you try at your limit.

How long is a bouldering competition rotation?

Usually 4 or 5 minutes on each problem with the same amount of rest between them, depending on the event.
