No more counting in your head. PushUps uses your iPhone's TrueDepth camera to automatically detect and count every rep in real time β hands-free, so you can focus entirely on your form. SMART REP COUNTING WITH AR Place your iPhone face-up on the floor between your hands. A 5-layer detection algorithm tracks your head height with millimeter precision and counts only real reps β filtering out head nods, rocking, and jitter. It even detects the bottom of a push-up when your face gets too close for the camera to see, so no rep ever goes uncounted. STRUCTURED TRAINING PROGRAMS Follow a science-backed plan designed to take you to your goal: β’ 50 Push-Ups β 4-week beginner program, 3 days/week β’ 100 Push-Ups β 6-week intermediate program with progressive overload β’ 200 Push-Ups β 12-week elite program with built-in re-testing phases β’ ARMY PRO β 6-week military-grade plan with Strength, Volume, Pyramid, Endurance, and Max Effort days, modeled after U.S. Army, Marine Corps, and Special Forces standards Take a quick fitness test before starting β the app assigns the right difficulty column so you're always training at your edge. 7 PUSH-UP VARIATIONS Log Classic, Wide, Diamond, Decline, Incline, Archer, and Pseudo Planche sets. Mix variations across a session to build balanced, complete upper-body strength. RECOVERY INSIGHTS The app reads your Heart Rate Variability and Resting Heart Rate from Apple Health to calculate a daily recovery score. Know whether to push hard, train moderately, or rest β before you even begin.
