Pocket Squat

■ Why is it so hard to stick with exercise? “I don’t have time to go to the gym.” “Setting aside a full hour feels impossible.” Sound familiar? The biggest barrier to exercise is not your willpower. It is the psychological friction of getting started. Sukima Squat is a new habit-building app designed to hack your everyday routine. Instead of asking you to change your life, it helps you turn the small gaps already in your day into simple, repeatable movement.

■ The 120-minute insight from modern health science Large-scale epidemiological studies, including research associated with Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, have reported that people who do 90 to 120 minutes of strength training per week, such as squats, have a 13% lower risk of all-cause mortality compared with people who do none. Do nothing, and lower-body muscle naturally declines with age. Over time, your healthspan is quietly eroded. This app is built to push back against that decline at an extremely low cost: just a few seconds at a time, repeated throughout your day.

■ No need to block off time. Just give us 15 seconds, 7 times a day. This is not intense gym training. Sukima Squat breaks your movement goal into tiny actions that fit naturally into your 24-hour routine.

• Each action is just 15 squats, taking around 30 seconds
• Right after you wake up
• Before making coffee
• Between work sessions
• After replying to an email
• Whenever your body needs a quick reset The app guides you toward the right timing, turning familiar moments in your daily life into movement triggers. Move briefly 7 to 8 times a day, and your essential exercise habit starts to build almost automatically.

■ A real-time health asset simulator that keeps you motivated The moment you complete a squat set, the app visualizes how much future health you have protected. “Squats complete. You protected ○ seconds of healthy time.” This is more than a simple rep counter. Your effort is treated as a visible asset. Each completed set becomes progress. Each checkmark on your calendar becomes a streak. The app is designed to support habit formation through clear feedback, small wins, and a sense of compounding progress — without relying on willpower alone.

■ Key features

• Science-based goal distribution Your weekly movement target is automatically divided into small daily actions that fit your lifestyle.

Start investing in your lower-body health today. A 15-second action may feel small. But repeated every day, it can become one of the most powerful investments you make in your future.
