How BreakMoves works

01 Spud listens

BreakMoves listens to the sounds of your show and learns what a commercial sounds like. Spud stays on the “look out” for ads while the app is open.

02 Spud cues you

When Spud hears an ad, he lets you know it's time to move.

03 You move

Enjoy a brief movement or stretch break.

04 Back to your show

Get back to what you were doing—feeling better and building healthier habits one break at a time.

Runs on your phone. Nothing is recorded or sent.

MEET THE MAKER

Hi, I’m Thomas.

I’m a former personal trainer and health educator that kept hearing the same thing from clients: “I know I should move more; I just don’t have the time.”

So I built BreakMoves around time people already have, like the commercial breaks during their favorite shows. Every move in the app is one I’d give my own clients: simple, safe, and doable right in front of your couch or desk.

I’m also the featured trainer in the app’s videos. Every move is one I demonstrate on camera myself, so you’re always following along with someone who knows what they’re doing.
