What's the hardest exercise for you?

Drop your answer below!

Ever notice how the first push-up feels like the hardest, but the 20th feels amazing?

Think what highest record will feel...

RepsRise.app - Track you workouts with Data

I kept showing up.

Built in public.

Posted every day.

Today RepsRise.app finally caught some attention.

This graph isn’t magic — it’s momentum.

Still showing up.
Pullups every day.
No excuses, no hacks — just reps.

Built RepsRise.app to keep myself consistent.

As a father x3 most of work time is at the evening, where the guys go to sleep.

After a deep work session I found my self struggling to sleep and my brain was continue working like 🚀

Till I bought this anti blue light 🤓

2$ improved my progress so much!

I’m not a marketer.

I’m a solo dev who just wanted to track my workouts.

But building is only half the game.

So I’m learning marketing too — post by post.

Because if no one sees your product, it doesn’t exist.

RepsRise → RepsRise.app

No one talks about how hard it is to stay consistent.

Not because you’re lazy — but because you don’t see progress.

I built RepsRise.app so you can log your reps and see your improvement.

It made me train more.
Might help you too.

I would like to migrate RepsRise.app from HTML/JS/CSS to:

Next.js
Tailwind+DaisyUI
Firebase- for both auth and database
Stripe

Every maker need does 4 photos in his Home.

Built RepsRise.app because I kept forgetting how many pullups I did.

Let's get insight to grow up 💡

My new SaaS is LIVE → RepsRise.app

I do calisthenics but never remembered my reps or saw real progress.

Now I log every set and track gains over time—with data.

If you're into bodyweight workouts (OR NOT), try it.

Ask me anything! I’ll be here answering. 🚀

I’d love to chat about:
✅ App development & UX decisions
✅ Marketing an indie Android app
✅ Challenges of growing an app without a big budget
✅ Any feedback or ideas to improve!

📈 Biggest challenge? Getting more downloads! I’ve had some success posting on Reddit, but I’d love to grow the user base further.

💰 How is it monetized? The app has ads to support development, but I focus on keeping the experience smooth.

🔹 Why did I build it? I wanted a stopwatch that I could control effortlessly while doing workouts, without searching for tiny buttons. Turns out, 3K+ reviewers use it for everything from sports to studying and even cooking!

💡 How it works:
✅ Tap → Start timer
✅ Tap → Stop timer
✅ Large, easy-to-read display
✅ Minimalist, no extra fluff

Easy Stopwatch - The Simplest Way to Measure Time Easy Stopwatch is a simple, battery-efficient app that works offline. Just tap to start or stop - no complicated settings, just pure functionality in your pocket.

I’m Yoav, an indie developer who got tired of clunky stopwatch apps with tiny buttons.
So, I built Easy Stopwatch easystopwatch.app, a button-free stopwatch where you simply tap anywhere to start and stop.

I built a stopwatch app with NO start/stop buttons—just tap anywhere. AMA! 🧵
