Scientific Evidence

Why "Exercise Snacks" work for remote work

0x01 // Glycemic Control

Glycemic Control & Metabolism

Breaking up sitting time with brief walks significantly reduces glucose and insulin levels after meals.

Dunstan, D. W., et al. (2012) · Diabetes Care

💡 Helps stabilize energy and avoid the afternoon "slump" after lunch.

0x02 // Metabolic Efficiency

Metabolic Efficiency

6 bursts of 1-min intense exercise improve glucose management as well or better than a 40-min continuous session.

Francois, M. E., et al. (2014) · Diabetologia

💡 You don't need 40 minutes straight; 1 minute of effort every hour has a real impact.

0x03 // Longevity & VILPA

Longevity & Heart Health

3 to 4 bursts of 1-min daily vigorous activity reduce overall mortality risk by up to 40%.

Stamatakis, E., et al. (2022) · Nature Medicine

💡 Daily intensity at home counts, no gym clothes required.

0x04 // Brain Performance

Productivity & Brain Function

Brief moderate-intensity breaks improve executive functions, memory, and immediate attention.

Wheeler, M. J., et al. (2020) · Brit. J. Sports Med.

💡 A 2-3 minute snack can "reset" your brain for the next task.

Practical Summary TL;DR

Frequency: Every 60-90 minutes during your workday.

Duration: 1 to 5 minutes per session. Fast and efficient.

Intensity: Choose the intensity that best suits you depending on your mood.

No equipment: You don’t need anything but your own body. No excuses.

"You don't need an hour free. Breaking up sedentary habits with exercise snacks is scientifically effective."

// Behind FitSnacks

Hi, I'm Óscar.

As a frontend developer, I used to spend more than 10 hours a day in front of the screen. Absorbed by the code, I ignored the signals my body was sending me. I gained 20 kilos, lost my patience with my daughters, and stopped spending quality time with them. The turning point came during a routine medical check-up: lifelong medication and risk of heart attack. With two small girls at home, I knew I had to change. But I wasn’t looking to go to the gym for an hour. I was looking for something that would integrate into my daily life as a developer. That’s how "exercise snacks" were born: micro-breaks of 2-5 minutes between commits, between meetings, while code compiles. FitSnacks is the app I needed and didn’t exist. I created it so that no developer ever has to choose between their passion for code and their own health. Because both can —and should— coexist.
