30 Minute Timer
Thirty minutes is the standard TV-episode slot (ads included), and it's also a realistic length for a real gym warm-up plus one full exercise circuit.
Meal-prep routines built around a single half-hour block are common precisely because it matches how long most stovetop dishes actually take.
It's already set to 30:00 below — press Space or Start to begin. Reloading mid-countdown resumes it rather than resetting, since it tracks a fixed end time stored on your device, not a server.
What fits in 30 minutes

- Watching a TV episode with ads
- A solid gym warm-up plus one exercise circuit
- Meal-prepping a single dish
- A commute on foot across a small town
- A full grocery run for a short list
