ForcePush.fit, a macOS menu-bar app that compares GitHub commits with manually logged push-ups, launched on Product Hunt. Developer Timeline, the account behind the announcement, said it had “0 expectations” for the launch.
The app starts at $9.99 for its first 20 buyers. That founding-license price rises to $13.99 for buyers 21 through 50, then $19.99 for buyer 51 and later. Each purchase includes a seven-day free trial, and the product says it has no subscription.
ForcePush automatically records GitHub commits, while users log push-ups themselves. It settles the comparison each day and sends timer reminders through the menu bar. The app also uses full-screen break notifications that users cannot scroll past.
The product is aimed at developers whose work can keep them seated for long stretches. A UK Biobank study of 10,931 IT workers found that sedentary work was more common among IT workers than among other employed participants, with an odds ratio of 5.14. IT workers also had higher odds of recording screen time outside work, at 1.42.
ForcePush includes small, medium and large desktop widgets, 12 built-in themes and custom-image support. Its smart-pause setting stops reminders during calls, screen sharing and fullscreen apps.
The app is built with SwiftUI for macOS 26 and later, and supports Apple Silicon. Its site lists Rashid as founder and gives rashid@developertimeline.io as a contact address.
Rashid also runs DeveloperTimeline, a content-creation outfit that remixes movie scenes into developer humor. DeveloperTimeline says it has produced more than 125 content pieces, received 20M+ total views and recorded an engagement rate above 85%.
ForcePush enters a category that includes Stretchly, a free, open-source Electron break-reminder app for macOS, Windows and Linux. Stretchly schedules 20-second micro-breaks every 10 minutes and five-minute breaks every 30 minutes.
The launch was announced in a post on X.
