I've been logging every push-up, pull-up, dip, and set of squats into Nickels & Dimes, the calisthenics tracker I built, for a few weeks now. Here's what one actual week of my own data looks like, and a couple things tracking it consistently has changed about how I train.
The numbers

- 466 total reps

Why I'm posting this
I built Nickels & Dimes because I was logging reps in my phone's Notes app, and every tracker I tried was either bloated with coaching programs I didn't want, or built for barbell lifting with bodyweight reps bolted on as an afterthought.
The thing that's actually changed my training isn't the app itself, it's that I can see the totals instead of guessing. Some days I train hard, some days I don't train at all, and seeing that pattern laid out instead of just feeling vaguely inconsistent has made me actually fix it.
The other piece that's mattered more than I expected: clubs. You can create a public or private club and rank total reps against friends every month. Competing against people I actually know has done more for my consistency than any streak counter or badge system I've used in other apps.
It's free, live at nickelsanddimes.app, built with Next.js, Supabase, and Prisma. Genuinely curious what other people's numbers look like if you track bodyweight training rigorously -- and what's actually kept you consistent.
