Lever is the calisthenics athlete's skill tree and training journal. See your progression from push-ups to planches, pull-ups to muscle-ups, and squats to pistols on visual skill trees that show exactly where you are and what to train next. VISUAL SKILL TREES Browse 5 complete progression trees covering every major bodyweight movement pattern: Push, Pull, Legs, Core, and Skills. Each tree maps the path from beginner to elite with clear prerequisites at every step. Know exactly when you're ready for the next variation - no guessing, no premature attempts that lead to injury. TRACK YOUR SKILLS Mark each skill as Locked, Available, Working On, Unlocked, or Mastered. Watch your progress light up across the tree as you advance. With 64 skills to track, your calisthenics journey becomes visible and deeply satisfying. HOLD TIMER FOR ISOMETRIC SKILLS Built-in precision timer for front lever holds, planche leans, handstands, L-sits, and every isometric skill. See your running best, track progression from 5 seconds to 30 seconds, and celebrate every new personal record. WORKOUT LOGGING Log training sessions with exercises organized by progression level. Record sets, reps, hold times, RPE, and detailed form notes. The app tracks your progressive overload by variation - the way calisthenics actually works. SKILL DETAIL CARDS Every skill comes with prerequisites, progression steps, coaching cues, common mistakes, and estimated timelines. It's like having a calisthenics coach built into the app. PR TRACKING Automatic personal record detection across all your training. New best hold time? New rep max? The app compares every logged set against your history and flags the record for you. WORKOUT TEMPLATES Get started with proven training splits: Push/Pull/Legs 3-day, Upper/Lower 4-day, and Skill-Focused sessions designed for intermediate and advanced athletes. PREMIUM FEATURES Upgrade to unlock unlimited skill tracking across all 64 skills, unlimited session logging, and every workout template. FREE FEATURES View all skill trees and detail cards, track up to 10 skills, log up to 15 sessions, hold timer with automatic PR detection, and one workout template. Whether you are working toward your first strict pull-up or training a straddle planche, Lever makes calisthenics progression visible, trackable, and motivating.

No more counting in your head. PushUps uses your iPhone's TrueDepth camera to automatically detect and count every rep in real time โ 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 โ 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: โข 50 Push-Ups โ 4-week beginner program, 3 days/week โข 100 Push-Ups โ 6-week intermediate program with progressive overload โข 200 Push-Ups โ 12-week elite program with built-in re-testing phases โข ARMY PRO โ 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 โ 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 โ before you even begin. PERSONAL RECORDS & 16 ACHIEVEMENTS Automatically track PRs for Max Reps in a Set, Max Session Volume, Max Weekly Volume, and Longest Streak.
