You are a remote developer who consistently works ten-hour days glued to your monitor. You know the severe risks of a sedentary lifestyle—you have read the horror stories about blood clots and burnout—yet when you enter a flow state, hours vanish. You have tried generic timer apps, but you dismiss their notifications instantly. You need a system that absolutely forces you out of your chair, interrupting your work with a hard stop so you can do a quick stretch or squat before returning to your code.

失敗する可能性がある理由
自己反論 — 最も重要な信頼のシグナル

- 2Users might simply click the 'exercise completed' button without actually doing the physical movement.
- 3Enterprise IT policies might block the installation of software that monitors keyboard and mouse activity.
