IntervalTimer

Hello hello!
I hope you all are having a great week! I know I certainly am. School has been great and I've been keeping up with my daily workouts. I have plenty of apps to help with my weight loss goals and workout routines but I think my favorite one would have to be IntervalTimer. My friend showed it to me and I immediately fell in love. It is simple to navigate and easy to use. You can choose between a simple or complex routine and how many sets and cycles you'd like to do. I have a different routine for each part of the body I want to work on, basically legs, arms, and core. I usually do two of those a day so here is an example of what I would do:
Monday - legs and arms
Tuesday - arms and core
Wednesday - core and legs
And so on. Today I did legs and arms but I'm only going to talk about my leg routine today. I do 6 different sets for one minute and repeat it 3 times so it takes about 20 minutes to complete. You have one minute to complete each interval so I always try to do as many as I can. I start with squats, to kind of warm myself up, then I do donkey kicks and leg lifts (one minuter per side so a total of 4 minutes) and end with a minute wall sit. When I first started I didn't think that it would be difficult but boy was I wrong. This kicked my ass and I was drenched in sweat. Just wait until I get to my core workout, you might actually cry.
I hope this can be of any help for you guys!
