About this thing
This app is probably not for you. I built it for myself to track push-ups while keeping it entertaining with sarcasm and dark humor. I hope you find it useful, but honestly, there are tons of other apps out there.
The philosophy
I wanted to track push-ups. So I built an app. No investors. No board. No bullshit.
Pushupology is a refreshingly honest, raw, and elegantly sarcastic fitness tracker that parodies fitness culture - especially fitness apps - without hiding it. I treat push-ups with both seriousness and self-aware absurdity, while simultaneously making fun of every fitness app trope: gamification, fake motivation, corporate wellness speak, and the absurdity of tracking every single movement.
Core principles:
- Honest and Raw: No fake motivation or corporate fluff. Calls things what they are. NO BULLSHIT.
- Sarcasm with Elegance: Witty, not mean-spirited. Deadpan delivery with class.
- Obvious Parody: Roleplays as a "serious fitness app" while mocking every trope.
- Genuinely Funny: Actually funny, not just quirky. Makes me laugh, and hopefully you too.
- Personal and Special: Quirks everywhere. Easter eggs throughout. This app feels personal, special, one-of-a-kind.
What it does
I track push-ups. That's it. But I do it with style, sarcasm, and a complete lack of corporate speak.
You can log your push-ups, see your stats, track your progress, unlock achievements (that I'm laughing at you for caring about), and compare yourself to the collective suffering of all users. It's like a fitness app, but self-aware.
Built with
Obsession
Sarcasm (lots of it)
Regrettable amounts of coffee
Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, and zero corporate funding
⚠️Disclaimer
This app uses sarcasm and dark humor. I'm making fun of fitness apps (and myself). If you're easily offended, there are other apps.
But also, I'm not sorry. (Okay, maybe a little.)
The sarcasm is intentional. The honesty is real. If you're still here, you get it. Welcome.
