How to Run a Push-Up Challenge with Friends

Agree on a daily goal, share an invite code, and give the check-ins a shared board. Includes logging corrections and the difference between a free private challenge and a Pro season.

Version 2.0 added challenge seasons, season results cards, and official PushCheck groups.

A season gives your challenge a date window. The group creator sets a start and end date. The leaderboard gains a Season view for that period, while all-time totals remain separate. When the season ends, the creator can generate a card with the final standings to share with the group.

Official groups give you another way to join a challenge. The release introduced 25 A Day, 50 A Day, and 100 A Day. Browse lists open groups, and its activity sorting helps you find groups with recent activity.

PushCheck Pro covers joining public groups, creating public groups, and running challenge seasons. It is an optional one-time $6.99 unlock. Core private groups, check-ins, streaks, leaderboards, and the shame timer remain free. There are no ads or recurring subscriptions.

Version 1.9 introduced PushCheck Pro and public groups. Private groups use an invite code; public groups offer a way to join challenges beyond your existing friends.

Pro launched as an optional one-time $6.99 unlock. The core app remained free, including private groups, check-ins, streaks, leaderboards, and the shame timer. Version 2.0 later expanded Pro to cover creating public groups and running challenge seasons. See the 2.0 release notes above for that update.

Group creators also gained a longer correction window. They can add or edit members' check-ins up to 30 days back. Members can still correct their own entries from the past seven days. This is for fixing the record when someone did the work and missed the log.

Version 1.8 added ways to compare consistency, correct missed logs, and manage a group challenge.

Past check-ins: members can add or edit entries from the past seven days. A corrected entry can fill a gap in the record, and streaks recalculate.

Streak rankings: the leaderboard's Total and Streak views let the group compare accumulated reps or consistency. They answer different questions, so your challenge does not have to revolve around the biggest total.

The optional shame timer: a nightly notification calls out members who have not hit their goal. Group creators control whether to use it.

Group controls: creators can manage members and group settings. This release initially allowed creators to correct member check-ins from the past seven days; version 1.9 extended their window to 30 days.

These core features remain free. Later releases added optional paid Pro features for public groups and challenge seasons. Read the current feature details.

PushCheck is built around a daily goal and a visible check-in. Track your reps on your own, or create a group and invite friends.

You enter your reps manually. Today's Board shows the counts and check-in times your group has logged. Streaks and totals give you different ways to follow progress.

Start with the free core features. If you later want public groups or a season with its own standings, those are optional Pro features. The job stays the same: log the work and see who checked in.
