Track push-ups, explained simply — That actually lasts

Track Push-ups works best as a system, not a burst of motivation. Set the system up once with these steps and let it run.

What you need

Your current numbers or baseline
A simple tracking method
Honesty about the starting point

Step by step

Define what done looks like in one measurable sentence.
Track for two weeks using a method you will actually keep.
Review at the checkpoint: keep what worked, shrink what did not, delete what you skipped twice.
Attach the action to something you already do daily.
Choose the smallest recurring action that moves the number.

Tips

Label things; future-you has worse memory than present-you.
Photograph complex assemblies before disassembly.
When stuck, explain the problem out loud — half the time the answer appears.

Common mistakes

Skipping the verification step because the first attempt looked fine.
Changing multiple variables between attempts, which makes failures unlearnable.
Using the wrong tool 'just this once' and damaging the part.

FAQ

How do I maintain the result?

Add the final maintenance step to a calendar. Ten minutes monthly prevents most regressions.

Can I adapt this to my situation?

Yes — treat the steps as the skeleton. Keep the verification steps; customize everything else.

What if I get stuck?

Return to the last verified checkpoint and redo the failing step slowly. If it still fails, search for the exact error or symptom rather than the general task.

That is the whole loop: prepare, change one thing, verify, repeat. Mastery is just reps with feedback.
