Exercise Grid

It is a simple visual representation of how many pushups I've done since 2-17-2013. The whole grid is comprised of 2,500 squares which all represent 1 unit of work, in my case I've decided to make that 10 pushups.

Every time I drop down and pump out 10 pushups I get rewarded by getting to click a button on a physical remote which instantly turns one of the light colored squares on the grid to a dark color while I watch.

If I can manage 50 or 100 in a single setting then I'm rewarded by getting to click the remote 5 or 10 times while I watch the squares light up.

I only have 2 squares lit up at the time of writing this but come back and view this post to see my progress as I fill up the grid. If you happen to be here while I'm doing pushups you'll be able to see the squares light up in real time.

If you want one of these things for yourself or if you're just interested in how I made this happen stay tuned for a video, a few technical posts and a github repo with all the code!
