Set the timer to 76 seconds

How to use the online timer

A proper warm-up doesn't need to be long, and 76 seconds is enough to get your muscles moving and your heart rate up before you jump into the main session. Start the clock, run through a few dynamic stretches or some light cardio, and let the beep tell you when to switch rather than cutting it short because you're keen to get started. Rushing this bit just costs you later.

There's no setup beyond pressing Start, and the countdown handles the rest on its own from that point. Since it runs inside the browser, keep the tab open for the timer to keep an accurate count; you can switch to other tabs in the meantime, but closing this one out resets things. When the countdown hits zero, a sound plays so you're not stuck staring at the numbers.

A mechanical timer needs to be wound and a phone timer needs the phone unlocked, but this one just needs the page you already have open. It sits inside your browser, ready whenever you are, and it's the same tool whether you're on a laptop or a tablet in the kitchen. Free, with nothing to install or sign into, it's built to get out of your way and count. If you would rather say put a timer on for 76 seconds, that works too — press Start and the page does the rest.

Common questions

Can I set a custom time instead of the preset?

Yes, most pages let you adjust the minutes and seconds directly, so you're not limited to the exact length shown in the page title.

Does the timer work without an internet connection?

The page needs to load once, but the countdown itself runs locally in your browser, so a dropped connection partway through won't stop it.

Will the timer still run if my laptop goes to sleep?

No, if the device sleeps or the browser is suspended, the countdown pauses along with it, so keep your screen awake for an accurate result.

Is there a cost to use the timer?

No, it's free to use, with no registration, sign-up, or hidden limit on how many times you can run it.
