Sports and workout activities have become important parts
		  of modern life. Nowadays, many people track characteristics
		  about their sport activities with their mobile devices,
		  which feature inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors. In
		  this paper we present a methodology to detect and recognize
		  workout, as well as to count repetitions done in a
		  recognized type of workout, from a single 3D accelerometer
		  worn at the chest. We consider four different types of
		  workout (pushups, situps, squats and jumping jacks). Our
		  technical approach to workout type recognition and
		  repetition counting is based on machine learning with a
		  convolutional neural network. Our evaluation utilizes data
		  of 10 subjects, which wear a Movesense sensors on their
		  chest during their workout. We thereby find that workouts
		  are recognized correctly on average 89.9% of the time, and
		  the workout repetition counting yields an average detection
		  accuracy of 97.9% over all types of workout.<br>
