Do more pull-ups with PowerPullUp — a pull-up workout plan and a pull-up counter in one app. Take a max test, get a 100-day training program for your level, and let the phone in your pocket count the reps. HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS 1. A max test shows how many pull-ups you can do now. 2. The app builds a 100-day plan for your level: training days and recovery days. 3. Every workout is ready: sets, target reps and a rest timer. No need to invent your workload at the bar — open today's workout and follow it. YOUR PHONE COUNTS YOUR PULL-UPS The automatic pull-up counter uses your phone's motion sensors — no camera and no tapping between reps. 1. Tap Start. 2. Put your phone upright in a snug pocket. 3. Hang still for 1–2 seconds and wait for the long signal. 4. Do your set — the app counts the reps. If a rep is missed, you can correct the count after the set. WHAT'S INSIDE • 100-day pull-up program based on your max test • Sets, target reps and rest timer for every workout • Automatic pull-up counter with count correction • Workout history, total reps and progress statistics • Training streaks and achievements • Freestyle mode for workouts outside the program PROGRESS IN NUMBERS Every workout is saved. See how many sets and reps you've done and how your pull-ups change over time. FAQ How do I increase my pull-ups? Train regularly, with proper rest between sets and between training days. PowerPullUp calculates sets and reps for your level, so you don't have to guess the workload. Do I need a gym? No. A pull-up bar at home, in the park, on a street workout ground or at the gym is enough. Where should I keep my phone? Upright in a snug pocket — the counter is more accurate that way. I can only do 1–2 pull-ups. Is it for me? Yes. The main program starts from one pull-up in the max test. WHO POWERPULLUP IS FOR For anyone who wants to do more pull-ups, train consistently or bring structure to pull-up bar training, street workout and calisthenics. PowerPullUp is focused on pull-ups — it is not a full-body exercise library. Take your max test and start your first workout with a plan.
