About

PeakSet

Features
Read full description

PeakSet is a simple push-up tracker built around one idea: real progress comes from pushing your limit. Each session is straightforward. Do as many push-ups as you can, enter your reps, rest for 3 minutes, then repeat for 3 total max-effort sets. PeakSet records the session and tracks your progress over time. This is what makes PeakSet different from doing the same fixed number of push-ups every day. Fixed reps can hide whether you are actually getting stronger. PeakSet helps you test your true maximum, gives you a number to beat and lets you see whether your limit is rising. Use PeakSet to: Track your best single set Review your full session history Measure progress over time Build consistency with streaks and reminders If you want a clear, focused way to improve your max push-up set and see measurable progress, PeakSet gives you exactly that.
