Online Rep Counter
An online rep counter tracks how many repetitions you have completed in a set, so you do not lose count under fatigue. Set your target reps as a maximum, tap once per rep, and keep a second counter for completed sets. Everything saves instantly, so it survives a phone lock between sets.
It works offline, which matters in gym basements with no signal.
Auto uses your step size, stops on its own at a min or max limit, and records the whole run as a single undo.

Shortcuts: +/↑/Space increase · −/↓ decrease · R reset · N new counter · A auto count · Ctrl+Z undo · Ctrl+Y redo
Losing count at rep eight of twelve is the most common reason a set gets cut short. One tap per rep, a target that stops the counter when you get there, and undo for the rep you double-counted.
A rep counter is a tool that records completed repetitions of an exercise, and usually completed sets, so a lifter does not have to hold the running count in mind while under load.

How to count reps and sets during a workout
Set up a rep counter and a set counter before your first working set.
Create a counter per exercise
Name it after the movement, for example “Bench press”. Keeping one counter per exercise means your history for the session stays separate.
Add a second counter for sets
Press “+ New” and name it “Sets”. Both totals are visible together in the counter list, so you always know where you are in the session.
Set your target reps as a maximum
Open “Min / max limits” and set the maximum to your target, say 12. The counter stops there and tells you the set is complete.
Tap once per rep
Use the + button, the Up arrow or Space. Turn on vibration so you get confirmation without looking, which is useful mid-set.
Reset reps and add one set
Press and hold Reset to clear the rep counter, then add one to the set counter. Hold-to-reset means a stray touch cannot wipe the count mid-session.
What lifters and coaches count with it
Anywhere the number of repetitions matters more than the weight on the bar.
Straight sets in the gym
Count reps to a target and sets alongside, so a 4×10 session is tracked without a notebook or a paid app.
AMRAP and max-effort sets
When the whole point is to find your maximum, the count has to be exact. Tap each rep and read the total afterwards.
Calisthenics volume
Accumulate pull-ups or push-ups across a whole day. The counter keeps the running total even if you close the tab between attempts.
Physio and rehab exercises
Prescribed exercises usually come with an exact rep and set count. A max limit stops you overshooting a joint's tolerance.
Circuit and interval training
One counter per station, named for the exercise, so you know which stations you have completed in the round.
Coaching a client
Count for someone else while they lift, using the big focus-mode display so they can see the number too.
EMOM and every-minute work
Count completed minutes on one counter and total reps on another to check your volume at the end.
Rep schemes with a step
For a 5×5, set the step size to 5 so one tap logs a whole set and the total reads as total reps.
Common rep schemes and how to set the counter up for them
Most programmes prescribe a scheme rather than a single number. Setting the counter up to match the scheme before your first set means you are not doing arithmetic between sets.
| Scheme | Total reps | Set the counter to |
|---|---|---|
| 5 × 5 | 25 | Step 1, maximum 5, reset after each set |
| 3 × 8–12 | 24–36 | Step 1, maximum 12, reset after each set |
| 4 × 10 | 40 | Step 1, maximum 10, reset after each set |
| 10 × 10 (German volume) | 100 | Step 10, one tap per completed set, maximum 100 |
| Pyramid 12/10/8/6 | 36 | Step 1, change the maximum before each set |
| AMRAP | Open | Step 1, limits off, read the total afterwards |
| Daily push-up total | Open | Step 1, limits off, never reset until the day ends |
For the volume schemes in the middle of that table, the step size is doing the work: one tap per completed set of ten, and the display reads total reps rather than sets. That is much easier to check against a programme than counting sets and multiplying at the end.
Counting reps without breaking the set
The count should cost you nothing. If it takes attention away from the lift, it is set up wrong.
Set the target before the first rep
Enter the maximum and the counter tells you when the set is done. Watching a number climb toward a target you are also holding in mind is two jobs.
Use vibration, not the screen
Haptic confirmation means you never have to look. Looking at a phone mid-set is how form goes.
Keep sets and reps in separate counters
One counter climbing to thirty tells you nothing about whether that was three sets of ten or two of fifteen.
For volume work, count sets and let the step do the maths
Ten sets of ten with a step of 10 is ten taps and a display that reads real total reps.
Log the totals before you leave
The counter holds the session, not the history. Thirty seconds copying totals into your training log is what makes the data useful next week.
Online counter vs a clicker, an app, paper and a spreadsheet
Every counting method trades something away. This is what each one actually costs you.

Frequently asked questions
How do I count reps and sets at the same time?
Create two counters and name them “Reps” and “Sets”. Both totals show in the counter list together. Tap the rep counter during the set, then hold Reset and add one to the set counter when the set is done.
Can I set a target number of reps?
Yes. Open “Min / max limits”, enable limits and set the maximum to your target. The counter refuses to go past it and displays “At maximum”, so you know the set is finished without watching the number.
What is the difference between reps and sets?
A rep, or repetition, is one complete execution of an exercise. A set is a group of reps performed back to back before you rest. A prescription of 3×10 means three sets of ten reps, thirty reps in total.
Does it work without an internet connection?
Yes. Once the page has loaded, all counting happens in your browser, so it works in a basement gym with no signal. Your counts are stored on your device and are still there next time.
Will my count survive between sets if my phone locks?
Yes. Every rep is saved the moment you tap, so locking the phone, switching to a music app or putting it in your pocket does not affect the count. Reopen the page and carry on.
Can I count reps without looking at the screen?
Yes. Press Space or the Up arrow on a laptop, or turn on vibration feedback on a phone so each registered tap gives a physical confirmation. That keeps your attention on the movement.
Can I use it to log a whole workout?
You can keep one counter per exercise for the session and copy the totals into your training log at the end. It is a counter rather than a training diary, so it does not store weights or history.
Is there an automatic rep counter that uses the camera?
No. This tool counts when you press a button, which keeps it free, private and completely offline. Camera-based rep counting needs a permanent connection and sends video off your device.
Can it count reps automatically using the camera?
No, and that is deliberate. Camera counting needs a permanent connection, camera permission and video leaving your device. This counts when you press, which keeps it free, private and fully offline.
Can I track weight as well as reps?
Not directly, it is a counter rather than a training log. A practical workaround is naming the counter with the weight, for example “Bench 80kg”, so the totals you copy out carry that context.
How do I count a drop set or a superset?
Give each movement its own counter and switch between them, or use one counter with limits off and note the breakpoints. For supersets, two named counters is nearly always clearer.
Does the count survive between gym sessions?
Yes, until you reset it. That is useful for accumulating volume across a week, and it means you should reset deliberately at the start of a session if you want a per-session number.
How do you count reps and sets?
Count each complete execution of the movement as one rep, and each group of reps done without rest as one set. Keep them in separate counters: a single total of thirty tells you nothing about whether that was three tens or two fifteens.
What does a rep counter do?
It records completed repetitions so you do not lose count under fatigue, which is the usual reason a set finishes short. Setting your target as a maximum turns it into something that tells you when the set is done.
