Rest Timer – Optimize Recovery, Maximize Performance

Resting between sets is just as important as lifting itself. But how often do you actually track your rest time? Taking too little can leave you feeling gassed out, while too much can kill momentum.

That’s why Volym’s Rest Timer keeps your workouts running smoothly. It automatically tracks rest time between sets, so you can focus on training—not watching the clock.

Why Use a Rest Timer?

✔ Stay on track – No more guessing how long you’ve rested
✔ Optimize performance – Take enough time to recover without losing momentum
✔ Hands-free automation – Let Volym track your rest, so you can focus on lifting
✔ Customizable for any goal – Adjust rest times based on your training style

How It Works

1️⃣ Set Your Rest Duration

Choose your preferred rest time. Whether it’s 30 sec for hypertrophy or 3 min for strength, Volym lets you set the perfect recovery window.

2️⃣ Enable Auto-Start (Optional)

Want to keep things seamless? Auto-start ensures the timer begins automatically after each set, so you don’t have to hit start manually.

3️⃣ Customize Your Settings

• Start timer between exercises – Keep your flow going, even when switching exercises.
• Reset timer when marking a set as done – Need a fresh start? The timer resets if you complete a set while it’s still running.

4️⃣ Press Start & Train

Once set, the Rest Timer runs in the background, keeping you focused on the weights—not your phone.

How Rest Time Impacts Performance

Different goals require different rest times:

• 💪 Strength & Power (2-5 min) → Longer recovery to maximize heavy lifts.
• 🔥 Hypertrophy (30-90 sec) → Moderate rest for muscle growth & fatigue management.
• 🏃 Endurance (15-45 sec) → Short recovery to maintain intensity & conditioning.

Volym adapts to your needs, ensuring you rest just enough without slowing down your workout.
