Free health & fitness tip: Two alarms, two tick marks (step 8 of 9 from "Stretch Routine You Can Do at a Desk").
Set a 10:30 AM and 2:30 PM alarm labeled 'stretch.' When it fires, stand up immediately — do not finish the email. The sequence is under four minutes. Mark a tick on a sticky note or a habit app. Two ticks a day, ten ticks a week.
After two weeks of consistent ticks, the alarm becomes optional — the body starts asking for the break. Until then, the alarm is non-negotiable.
