  description

  Wakeout transforms your new tab into a wellness checkpoint. Every time you open one, you're asked a simple question: What do you need right now? Energy to push through your afternoon? Relief from back, neck, or shoulder pain? Sharper focus to tackle your next task? Choose your outcome, and get guided movement breaks designed specifically for desk workers—all in 90 seconds to 3 minutes.
  
  Each mini workout requires nothing more than your desk chair. No gym equipment. No special clothes. No leaving your workspace. Just proven movements that deliver what you need: energizing exercises when you're tired, targeted stretches when you're achy, and clarity-boosting routines when you're distracted.
  
  With 30+ exercise packs and hundreds of desk-friendly movements, Wakeout turns the moments you'd normally spend staring at a blank browser into opportunities to feel better. 
  
  Start a Recurring Movement Timer to get nudged at your set time to move. Skip if the moment isn't right. Comes with a lunch "break do not disturb" pause for your comfort.
  
  You can also set light / dark mode to fit your needs.
  
  Free forever. No account required. Just install and start moving.

  Wakeout turns your new tab into a wellness checkpoint — and an antidote to doomscrolling. Every time you open one, we ask a simple question: what do you need right now? Energy to push through your afternoon? Relief from back, neck, or shoulder pain? Sharper focus to tackle your next task? Pick an outcome and get a 60-second guided movement break, right at your desk.
  
  EARN YOUR SCROLL — THE SITE BLOCKER
  Block the sites that pull you out of flow (social media, YouTube, news, news aggregators). When you try to visit one during your work hours, Wakeout redirects you to a 60-second movement break. Complete it and the site unlocks for a configurable window (default 15 minutes). Your body becomes the key. Snooze if you must — Wakefield will judge you a little.
  
  RECURRING MOVEMENT TIMER
  Nudge yourself to stand and move every 15 minutes to 1.5 hours. Auto-restarts after each break. Respects your work hours and pauses during lunch.
  
  DESK-FRIENDLY MOVEMENTS
  Proven packs designed for desk workers — no gym, no clothes to change, no leaving your chair. Energizing sequences when you're tired, targeted stretches when you're achy, clarity-boosting routines when you're distracted.
  
  YOUR WAY
  Light, dark, and auto themes. Free forever. No account required.
  
  PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
  All data stays in your browser. No analytics, no tracking, no data sent to our servers.
