Great app for boxers...

Excellent Digital Coach
I live in a rural environment with no access to a boxing gym. This app mixes up the training well and acts as an excellent on-the-go coach.

Works perfectly for me it’s simple and allows me the freedom to modify my training session, definitely recommend!
From T-jockey
Perfect boxing app
Was the exact timer app I was looking for. No more stock iPhone timer! You can tell this was made by someone who actually fights. The shadow boxing workouts are great too!
From KKCBB

Very useful to have this if you’ve got a space to work with and your gyms closed.
