No, this sign is strictly for physically breaking or snapping an object. If you want to say 'take a break' or 'rest' from work or an activity, you would use a completely different sign, usually the one for 'pause' or 'vacation'.

Your hands only need to move a few inches apart after the wrists rotate. The emphasis is on the sharp twisting motion of the 'snap' rather than creating a wide distance between your hands.
