Basically, it works like this. You first do an initial test to gauge your current fitness level. Then, you’re assigned a category depending on how well you did. You then progress up through the number of push-ups you must do three days a week for the next six weeks. If you followed the course exactly then you should be easily able to accomplish one hundred push-ups by the end. You also log your results as you go along.

This is a great web app that also has an iPhone app to go along with it. They also run similar programs such as Two Hundred Sit-Ups and Two Hundred Squats.

WakeMate Helps You Get a Good Night’s Sleep

wristband Everyone hates waking up, looking around the room from the cosy cocoon that is their beds and knowing that in ten minutes they’ll have to get up and start your day. For the most part, this is down to feeling groggy and unenergized even if they’ve just slept for eight hours.

WakeMate is an upcoming web app which is paired with a wristband (which you have to buy for $50) that aims to solve that problem. Here’s how it works:

You put the wristband on and power it up. It’s Bluetooth enabled. You then pair it with your phone (can be anything from an iPhone right down to your basic run-of-the-mill cell phone). When you hit the hay, the device monitors your sleep movements and cycles and records them on an internal flash drive. When you phone’s alarm is triggered by the wristband, you wake up and start your day. Your wristband will then have sent your sleep data to your phone which will in turn have uploaded it to you online account. You can then monitor you sleep patterns and quality on your account.

I think this is quite a useful app which may help thousands of people. You can pre-order your wristband from their site and pay just $5 now, and the rest when it ships. They’re due to ship in January. As for now, the app is a stand-alone product.
