Hi, I'm Nico. I do CF/functional workouts on a regular basis and use timers to measure my progress. These workouts usually involve a few different blocks, with different types of timers and rest in between. I couldn't find an app that would allow me to set it and forget it so I went ahead and built it myself. I soon realized entering the blocks by hand is a bit tedious, so I added coach Woddie, which allows the users to talk to set up the time and also to get recommendations for workouts of a specific duration, style, etc.

I've worked on large and small projects where I need to visualize large amounts of spatial data and found no easy way other than setting up my own vector tile server. vTiler is a vector tile server as a service, so you can see your data on a map right away. Currently in beta, definitely open for feedback!

I made a timer for functional workouts - includes timers for different types of workouts (AMRPAP, EMOM, etc) and you can combine them to create a full workout. Got around 15 people / day using, not much but a fun side-project :D. https://www.wodblocks.com

I built this purely on personal need. Since the pandemic, I've been working out at home doing mostly Crossfit workouts. These have different parts, usually including warm-up, a strength portion, some rest and then what's called the WOD (workout of the day). For each part you have to configure a different timer, for example countdown, TABATA, EMOM (every minute on the minute), etc. Since I didn't want to interrupt my workout constantly, I thought about making a timer that would self-adjust. More so, I've been sharing workouts with friends and it's usually a big chunk of text that we send back and forth, so I thought why not just share a link that opens in the app and you can start doing right away? Lastly, I included hundreds of preset blocks for those that need a great workout but don't have access to great programming.

Essentially that's what Wod Blocks is, a workout timer that adjusts to the different parts, allows you to share workouts and includes preset programming.

Hope you like it and I'm absolutely open to feedback!

Yea, I got there through an old link on their site. I find it funny that they sell SSL certs and cloud hosting but can't figure out their own certs and links!
