#22I'd like to see the rest screen contain information about the next exercise. This would give time to prepare.

You should see this at the bottom under the dots. I haven't optimized for small (under 13") screens, so it may be hidden.

Ahh yes... I did miss that because of screen size. You should optimize for smaller screens. :)

#26Great idea, you could make a pretty cool app out of this: let people create routines by letting them associate pictures with exercise names and amount of seconds. They could then create workouts by creating a list of exercises and rest periods and play their routing with the timer you created. Does this exist? I want one.
Agreed! This is brilliant!
Once again a wonderful example of something incredibly simple but incredibly useful. This would be particularly beneficial for Crossfit style workouts that are closely linked to a timer and where there is a different set of exercises every single day.
Brilliant!

#27That's good. Unless, of course, somebody comes up with 6-Minute workout timer. Then you're in trouble, huh?

#28Just curious, why 7 minutes?
Seems the 7 minutes was taken pretty literally in this app. The article suggests doing each exercise for 30 seconds, followed by 10 seconds of rest, for a total of 7:50. I was confused by each exercise started at :26 and rest at :8.
Would definitely be interested in downloading and tweaking this for my own. Github, perhaps?
Edit: FYI, don't release production code with console.log() if you can help it. :-p

#29OK, fine for this time, but tomorrow, you do it instead of procrastinating and creating a web page about it : )
OK mom :)

#30How is this useful? Do you stand and exercise in front of your computer or tablet computer?
Even if you don't exercise in your "computer room," it'd be trivially easy to put your laptop or tablet on a chair and do the exercises with it in your field of vision
