I'm trying to set a timer so it display the seconds and min left of an user and I'm using setInterval to get the seconds and if there are 60 seconds it will reduce 1 min from the user.

The thing is that I'm getting infinite for loops every time I try to do it.

Something like

var userObj = {

    name: "",

    min: 0,

    sec:0

}



function timerCount() {

    while (userObj.sec !== 0) {

        console.log(userObj.min)

        if (userObj.sec == 0) {

            setInterval(function() {

                userObj.min--;

                userObj.sec = 59     

            }, 1000);

        }

        while(userObj.sec !== 0) {

            setInterval(function() {

                console.log(userObj.sec)

                userObj.sec--;  

            }, 1000);

        }

    }

}
