The Best Calisthenics training app That Counts Every Rep.
Calisthenics athletes have been using spreadsheets and paper journals to track training because fitness apps don't serve them well. The gym-centric app ecosystem tracks weight and machines. Calisthenics needs rep volume tracking, bodyweight-specific progression, and a community that values clean form over heavy numbers.
REPS is a calisthenics-first training app. AI camera tracking counts pushups, squats, pull-ups, and burpees with form validation. The rank system tracks volume progression over time. The leaderboard is exclusively bodyweight athletes. It's the tracking tool calisthenics has been missing.
What calisthenics athletes actually need from software.
Calisthenics training is a progression-based discipline. You don't add weight to the bar — you add reps, advance to harder variations, or increase complexity. Regular pushups become diamond pushups become archer pushups become one-arm pushups. Regular pull-ups become muscle-ups become front levers. The progression ladder is the programming system.
Tracking calisthenics progress has always been a pain point. Gym athletes track weight × reps — clean, numerical, objective. Calisthenics athletes track rep volume (how many pushups this week vs last week) and variation difficulty (when can I move from regular to diamond pushups?). Most fitness apps don't model this well because they're built for the gym paradigm.
The calisthenics community also values clean reps — proper form, full range of motion, no kipping. A rep counter that counts half-reps or sloppy form is worse than useless — it gives false data. The ideal calisthenics tracking tool counts only properly executed reps and doesn't require you to manually log while trying to maintain a training flow.
Your problems. Real solutions.
"I lose count during high-rep sets — especially pushups and burpees"
REPS counts every rep automatically via AI camera. You can focus entirely on form and execution. No mental math, no losing count at rep 23.
"I can't tell if my volume is actually increasing week over week"
REPS tracks every rep in your history. Your XP and rank progression directly reflect volume increases. The leaderboard position over time shows your volume trend.
"Most fitness apps treat bodyweight as an afterthought — they're built for gym"
REPS is built exclusively for bodyweight. Every feature — AI tracking, rank system, leaderboard, factions — is designed around calisthenics-style training. No gym exercises, no weight logging.
"I want to train with other calisthenics athletes, not gym bros"
Everyone on the REPS leaderboard does bodyweight exercises. The competition is calisthenics-specific. Faction wars are won by bodyweight rep volume — the calisthenics community competes on calisthenics metrics.
Questions? Answered.
Is REPS good for serious calisthenics athletes?
For fundamental movement tracking (pushups, squats, pull-ups, burpees), REPS is excellent — AI-verified counting with form validation. For advanced skills (muscle-ups, levers, handstands), those movements aren't yet supported by the AI.
Can REPS track calisthenics progressions?
REPS currently tracks rep counts for fundamental movements. Progression between exercise variations (regular to diamond pushups) isn't automatically tracked. But volume progression — more reps per session over time — is the primary metric REPS excels at.
Does REPS validate form strictly?
REPS requires proper range of motion to count a rep. Pushups need proper depth and extension. Squats need proper depth. The AI is designed to undercount rather than overcount — your numbers reflect real, clean reps.
What calisthenics exercises does REPS support?
Pushups, squats, burpees, pull-ups, lunges, jumping jacks, high knees, and mountain climbers. The focus is on fundamental bodyweight movements that the AI can accurately track and validate.
What makes REPS a good calisthenics training app?
REPS works as a calisthenics training app by providing AI-powered automatic rep counting for bodyweight exercises through your phone's camera. The app uses computer vision to map your skeleton during exercises like pushups, squats, burpees, and lunges, counting each completed rep automatically without manual input. REPS requires zero gym equipment and works anywhere you can position your phone camera to capture your full body during exercise — home, park, hotel room, or outdoor space. The app includes an 8-tier competitive ranking system progressing from Unranked through Copper, Bronze, Silver, Gold, plus three hidden ranks. Every rep earns 1 XP advancing your global leaderboard position with real usernames and verified rep counts. Users join factions for weekly team wars. REPS runs on iOS 17 or later and is free to download. REPS Premium costs $59.99 per year for avatar customization and advanced progression features.
