More reps, less burnout. Train any bodyweight move with wave sets or a plan that adapts to you, for reps or holds. Go past your goal and the ring catches fire.
Surge Method is a rep workout app for any bodyweight exercise. Pick a way to train, follow the numbers, and watch them climb.
TWO WAYS TO TRAIN
SURGE: wave sets
Sets rise and fall toward your peak set. Short recovery sets between the hard ones keep you moving without burning out, so you finish with more total reps and better form.
CLIMB: descending sets
Start with your biggest set, then step down, 5 sets with timed rest. Every session is planned from your baseline. Rate it Easy, Good or Hard and the next one adapts. Each block ends with a test that sets your new baseline, so the numbers keep climbing.
TIME MODE
For planks, hangs and wall sits, train in seconds instead of reps. Both methods work here too: SURGE for the wave, CLIMB for descending holds with timed rest and a plan that grows.
NEW IN 1.4
• CLIMB for holds: five descending holds with timed rest, a plan and a test, for planks, hangs and wall sits
• Go past the goal on your last set and the ring catches fire, growing with every extra rep or second

• Push-up reps count a little deeper

CLIMB FOR HOLDS
TIME now has both methods, just like REPS. Pick SURGE for the wave you know, or CLIMB for planks, hangs and wall sits: five descending holds with timed rest, a plan that grows session by session, and a test at the end of each block.
PAST THE GOAL, IT CATCHES FIRE
On a CLIMB's last set or a test, go beyond the goal and the ring starts to burn. Every extra rep or second feeds it. In push-ups, each press works like a bellows.
ALSO
• In TIME, the button after your rest is now START. One tap and the next hold begins.
• Push-up reps need you a little lower before they count.
• Your next session sits right above Done on the finish screen.
