Why Squats?
- A recent scientific study found that 10 bodyweight squats every 45 minutes during an 8-hour workday improve blood sugar more effectively than a 30-minute walk.
- Squats are one of the best bodyweight and glutes workouts to improve blood sugar, strengthen glutes and legs, and improve posture.
- They're quick, effective, and can be done anywhere — even at your home or desk.

Ratings and reviews

It's great, highly practical, only issue is reminder is not working, tried everything, granted permissions, disabled battery optimization but no luck

Good app but it could use some tweaking. Like work days are set for everyone and can change frequently. maybe allow us to set the work days for the entire month. Also, allow us to choose every other day and/or 3 times a week for those of us who are just starting out and need to allow our legs to heal. Please consider these changes because my work days vary weekly

Almost great. The problem currently is that it has a bug where the times are sometimes duplicated for the times I already completed. Also no option to set less interval than 45 minutes. It would be perfect if there was other simple exercises too, like pushups.

What’s new

- Added option to remind your accountability buddy.
- Minor fixes and improvements.
