Here at Android Circle we are huge sports freaks, so we test drive almost every new sports app, in order to help you to pick the best one.
A lot of times, we do not write the review because the app is just average, it’s not future rich, developers does not update it regularly or it just lacks in the design department.
But today we have found and app that has it all!
Today we are going to give you, our honest review of the app that we think it is going to help you achieve your goals.
What does the app offer?!
No matter how good something looks, or functions, if it is not feature rich, people tend to use it once or twice and then forget about it, or ignore it.
Well Push-Ups certainly has all the box checked. Since we purchased the app, we’ve already gotten 3 updates, and that is always a good first sign, that money was well invested.
You can chose from 5 different Training plans;
• Cluster,
• Paused Repetitions,
• Systematic Progression,
• DUP,
• Isometric Training.
Furthermore, each of those training plans can be customised by you liking, that means you can create a workout that best suits your needs.
If we go and dig even a bit deeper, we can found that you can customise basically every little aspect of your workout.
Here is the features breakdown:
• Custom break time for each training plan, deactivate break time
• Start easily from scratch with more weight or another Push-Ups variant
• Adjust your training plan to your physical level. Adjust every plan at any time. When you had a longer break, simply adjust it again for the best results
