Stew Smith's Push-Up Push

I bought this app years ago and used it for a while, deleted it, reinstalled it and used it for a while, deleted it again, and just recently reinstalled it. It definitely used to work the way it was supposed to. I’m seeing two major problems with it now. 1) It’s supposed to multiply your push-ups by 4 but instead multiplies it by 5 so you have to do the math yourself and enter an incorrect number as your max in order to get the right number for your workout. 2) It doesn’t roll to the next day. It stays on day 1 of 14 and you have to add the reps back in manually. I also have to Pull-up Push app and it does work as advertised. Here’s the funny thing... I never actually used to Pull-up Push app as intended. Instead of following the protocol, I just did my pull-ups 3-4 days a week and I saw great results with it. The Push-up Push app on the other hand, I followed Stew’s protocol exactly, more than once, and I never saw significant progress with it. I’m not sure why. If you like doing workouts where you have to complete a certain amount of reps in as few sets as possible, this is good for keeping tracking for you, but the developer really needs to fix it.

Literally nothing in my case. App asked for my max pushups, conducts a calculation, then tells me how many to do and let’s me know I’m on day 1 of 14. After that, all I can do is add or subtract from what I need to do. The app didn’t roll to day 2, has no way to manually roll to day 2. It’s like it was written by someone intentionally trying to rip people off. I can see the good reviews so I have to assume at some point it worked. If you’re not going to keep up with the app then take it down. I’m not registering with another site to contact the developer either. I’ll give you a week to fix it or respond to this review. After that I’m asking apple for a refund and highlighting the app for them to remove.

I am on my second iteration of this program. I scored 48 push ups on my first FBI FIT test. The second test, after one cycle of this program, I scored 61. I am on my second cycle and plan to use this through the academy. The FBI protocol for the FIT test is extremely strict. Pushups are not timed however you cannot stop. Even a pause and the event is terminated. This is a great tool for keeping track of your pushups through out the day and during your workouts.
