Where to put the phone
Seated, leaning back, facing the phone with the hands together in front of you.
Face the phone. This movement reads best when both sides of the body are visible at once.
What closes a rep
Rotate the hands to one side of the body, then across to the other. Each side counts.
What makes the counter wait
Keep the hands paired. If they separate the counter cannot follow the rotation.
Alternating movements are counted on every drive. A repeat on the same side is still counted, it is just not ranked, and the recap shows “alternate sides” as the advisory.
One tip
Feet down or lifted, both read. Lifted feet are shown in the recap as the harder variant.
After the set
Every set ends with the same recap: reps counted, time, pace, the longest run, pauses, whether the second half held up, and the camera angle the phone actually saw. Technique detail is measured for the recap and never used to refuse a rep. Why we count and do not grade →
