Description         :
BackPack for Windows is a computer program that reminds the user to take
breaks from work and guides him to perform exercises.  According to a 
1995 study by the Occupational Health and Safety Association, any 
person using a computer for more than 2 hours a day is at risk of 
repetitive strain injury (RSI).  BackPack helps the user avoid the most 
common computer related RSIs by reminding him to take breaks with 
exercises.
These are shown with
excellent quality animated pictures of a real model.  Every time a new 
series of
exercises is performed.The program includes stretches covering several 
body parts: arms, back, legs, hands and neck.
Onscreen instructions lead the user step-by-step through each exercise.
This demo program includes 2 series of 3 exercises each.  The full
version includes 16 different series.

This program was designed for people who work for long period of times
and have a computer close to them.  The exercises are good for every one
who works in a sitting position.
