Git Pushups

Do pushups or we block your code

Website gitpushups.com
Overview

What it is

Block your code if you don't do daily pushups

Intent

I need it when

Build a consistent daily exercise habit without disrupting existing workflow

Git Pushups integrates pushups into the developer's existing daily git commit routine through a git-hook that blocks commits until daily pushups are completed, making exercise a natural part of the coding workflow rather than a separate task

Track fitness progress and maintain accountability with visual metrics

Pro version provides daily goals, contribution graphs, and leaderboard rankings that visualize pushup streaks and progress, creating accountability and motivation through gamification

Sync fitness data with existing health tracking systems

Pro version on iOS allows syncing pushup workouts directly to Apple HealthKit, integrating Git Pushups data with the user's broader health and fitness ecosystem

Perform strength training with minimal equipment and time investment

Pushups require no equipment and can be done anywhere in seconds, making them ideal for developers who want to build strength during work breaks without leaving their desk or workspace

Improve neuromuscular efficiency and form through frequent, low-intensity practice

Git Pushups implements the 'greasing the groove' technique by encouraging daily submaximal pushup practice, which builds neuromuscular efficiency and proper form over time

Drop

Not a fit when

  • User has no daily coding workflow or does not use git commits regularly
  • User is unable to perform pushups due to physical injury or medical condition
  • User prefers fitness tools completely separate from development tools
  • User works in an environment where physical exercise breaks are not feasible
  • User already has an established daily exercise routine and does not need habit stacking
