About this movement break idea wheel
This is a prompt to stop, not an exercise plan. The entries are small and undemanding — look away from the screen, change position, relax your shoulders — because the useful thing about a break is usually that it happened, not what was done during it.
Read the list before you use it and remove anything that does not suit you. Standing, walking, and stretching are each wrong for somebody, and a wheel that can land on something you cannot comfortably do is worse than no wheel. Rename the remaining entries into the version that fits your body, your desk, and the room you are in.
It also works for a class or a shared office, where the wheel on a screen is a more neutral instruction than a person telling everyone to stand up. Present mode makes it readable across a room. Keep the results gentle and optional, and let anyone choose a different entry from the visible list instead of the one that landed.
Random is the right mode and nothing else really applies. There is no reason to hold an option out after it is used — you can look away from your screen twice in an afternoon — and there is no round to complete. If you spin and the suggestion does not appeal, spin again; nothing is being tracked or scored.
The wheel will not remind you. It has no timer, no notifications, and no schedule; you open it when you notice you have been sitting too long. It also offers nothing in the way of medical or physiotherapy advice — the entries are ordinary break ideas, and anything you want to do about pain, mobility, or eye strain belongs with a professional rather than a wheel.
