After four Pomodoros, you take an extended break of 15 to 25 minutes. Between Pomodoros are scheduled breaks, during which you are encouraged to get up and stretch (if you work at a desk) and do something fun or relaxing.Ī typical Pomodoro lasts 25 minutes, followed by a five-minute break.
The Pomodoro Technique is simple: Break large tasks into smaller ones, which you then tackle over timed intervals called Pomodoros.
