Push-Up Tabata, with a Mountain of Arms
An iPhone and iPad workout app that runs timed push-up intervals, counts repetitions through the front camera, and wraps the session in voice coaching and neon synthwave.
Field notes
The workout uses adjustable timed intervals, with the classic configuration set to eight 20-second efforts separated by 10-second rests. An optional front-camera mode applies Apple's Vision framework on the device to count upper-body movement; the page says no video leaves the phone. Completed sessions stamp a flexed arm on an on-device calendar, while the app also includes built-in synthwave, 14 voice languages, and an optional Apple Music connection.
