Push-Up Metronome

There are quite a few push-up fitness tests, and some of these require the participants to perform push-ups at a set pace. Here is a simple online push-up metronome that you can use for these tests. The cadence push-up test described on this site uses a pace of 20 push-ups per minute, which is the default rate for the metronome below. The Push-Up Beep Test uses 25/min. However, you can change the rate to any number you want.

With this simple metronome you can set a pace based on the number of push-ups per-minute. There is also audio indicating the up or down position. You can turn the sound on and off.

How to Use the Metronome

Adjust the numbers to get the desired pace. Currently, the metronome is set at a pace of 20 per minute (one complete push-up every 3 seconds). Enter the required number, and press 'start' to begin. You can turn the sound off, the images will still indicate the set pace.

Use with Caution

On some devices the timing may not be accurate. Please check the metronome against a stopwatch before using it for fitness testing. At high rates some computers and mobile devices may not keep in perfect time due to other computer resources slowing the computer processing down. If you are having trouble with the timing displaying properly, try closing down other apps and windows.
