What is a Crossfit Timer?
The Timers or watches of Crossfit They are an indispensable element when making a WOD or training session. We need a visual reference that allows us to know when we find ourselves. How long we have been, how much we have left to finish, or how many seconds we have been resting. And they are the only real way to measure time in a precise and clear way.
Crossfit timers differ from the rest of the watches or markers precisely in their clarity, which are usually tremendously austere. A black bar in which some LEDs indicate the hours, minutes and seconds. Some also include a round, or break score, which allows us to further specify our situation within training, such as in a Tábata.
Crossfit timers are usually placed in an elevated area, normally anchored to the wall, so that the rest of the class can see them from any position and are connected to a power outlet. But at home our needs change.
If you have a homemade gym, or a Home Gym - Garage Gym, you don't need to have a crossfit clock as large as those mentioned above. Very recently, specific products have come out for these types of users that need the same functionalities but with different space requirements. The Mini Led Timers.
Crossfit mini timers have the same technical characteristics as their wall counterparts but with some Extrto that makes them much more affordable equipment for these users.
To begin with, its cost is much lower than that of a Timer like those used in a Crossfit box or similar facilities. And it makes sense because they are smaller.
In addition, as we say, their size for several reasons have reduced. The first is clear, normally your training area is not as large as an industrial ship so you don't need something big that you can see from afar. So now they are much more manageable and you can even take them in your backpack when you travel or move through your training zone.
And this is its second characteristic, they are portable, they do not require a constant energy supply to function. They have internal batteries that feed through USB loaders and provide them with hours of autonomy. This allows us to be able to put it in different places according to us wod or training of the day and always have it in sight.
And on this previous point, where to place them, we also have a new advantage here. And in addition to having the option to anchor them to the wall, these mini timers for Crossfit bring a powerful magnet inside that will allow us to place it directly on the Rack. Or about any metal structure.
It goes without saying that the screen has a good LED luminosity so that we do not doubt how long we have worked. Everyone already includes, like the big ones, a speaker so that we know exactly, thanks to a beep, when the WOD ends or begins. Its technical benefits also include, as the greats, the possibility of scheduing different training such as tábatas, intervals, counts back and back and some others.
As you see these Mini Led Timer They are full of advantages and have arrived to do your home training much more real and similar to what you do in a box. And they also leave you a free mobile phone to be able to record or listen to music while you give everything.
