Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Help for achieving a stress-free working environment is a download away with this comprehensive, mammoth application. You can easily define and schedule different stretching routines through The Break's clean and functional interface. It offers three breathing techniques and a variety of stretches for the eyes, neck, shoulders, wrists, and so on. Each routine is accompanied by a brief description and an easy-to-follow instructional video, and you can easily perform each routine while seated. The voice, background music, and videos are of good quality, which may explain the hefty download size of 73 MB. Its three-minute vacation, which displays relaxing scenes coupled with soothing music, was a welcome addition, but was locked during trial. Although the videos run for an average of only 30 seconds each, they give users a good feel for the program's registered version. QuickTime is required to make this program work. Health-conscious users will surely favor what this program has to offer, but will require patience during the download.Publisher's description

Version: The Break 1
"Fantastic! Just what the doctor ordered.``"
Pros: This product is exactly whath the doctor ordered, but without a prescription. I was advised to take regular breaks from the computer, to stretch my arms and legs, neck and eyes, and that's precisely what The Break helps me to do -- several times a day and on my schedule.
