iPushup
iPushup: fitness and gadgetry combined
iPushUp combines fitness training, health improvement and weight loss with gadgetry and technological assistance in a clever and novel way. It doesn't do much. But what it's aimed at, it does best!
App Details
As the application name suggests, it's all about pushups.iPushUp relieves you of the tedious counting of your (dozens of) pushups. Your full concentration goes to the performing of the exercise itself. iPushUp is counting your pushup repetitions as well as keeping track of your last and best result. An audible bell rings each time you are reaching the aim. The aim can also be defined manually as fixed or variable (meaning it will grow continuosly along with your repetitions once you have topped your old aim) value in the setup menu.
Pushups, what the heck?
