As a developer, I spend 8 hours a day in front of my desk. I started to have back pain and needed someone to remind me to take a break. Break reminder app already existed, but no app actually took you by the hand and guided through some stretching exercises. That's why I build Motion Minute.

Congrats with the launch, cool idea! Are you planning any integration with Apple watch? That's what I'm using now for my stand up and move reminders.

@edmundas_eddy good idea - how would you connect it with the workouts?

Value addition through meditation, calming music and also brain exercises (physical activities done on the chair) are what I can suggest to make the offering more wholesome. Good luck!

@varun_bhagath good idea. I heard meditation already in another comment. Maybe that's the next thing on my list.

That’s a super cool concept! Would you add a meditation break session to it?

@tonyabracadabra that is a good idea. How often would you like to have it popup. I guess it should be on a different time schedule than the other exercises.

@felix_eckhardt Since I took just 3-5 min quick meditation (which I still forget all the time) to recover energy, so I think it can be appended to your existing session as an additional perk!

Love it! I used to have a reminder set to tell me to move my … but this is awesome as I can get even more ideas what I should actually do right now! Love the shake to delay idea so I can finish an important task! So far I have done quite a few motion minute breaks and enjoy it. Any plans on extending the exercises?

Not even a 7-day trial? 🤓

Hey there! 👋 Just saw that Motion Minute launched on Product Hunt today. Love the idea of having a simple tool to remind us to take breaks and stretch while working at our desk. It's a small change that can make a big difference in our wellness and productivity!
