These will prevent muscle stiffness, fatigue and make you more resistant to viruses and bacteria. In short: by keeping moving, you ensure that your energy levels shoot up and your resistance remains high. How do you stay active?<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plan your daily activities in advance and make sure you have a routine for getting up and moving so that you can be sure to include the required daily exercise in your routine.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you sit a lot in the office or at home? Then try getting up every 20 minutes and taking a walk around. This helps with blood flow to the body and provides warmth.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try walking or exercising for 30 minutes daily. Is the sun shining outside? Then take your lunch and go for a walk.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As in summer, it is important to keep drinking enough water. This is often forgotten during cold days.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stretch your hips, legs, back and neck regularly. Try to make this a regular part of your morning and evening routine.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try to take small breaks throughout the day to pay close attention to your breathing.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During winter, also try to build strength by watching a sports video and copying the exercises from it or doing some yoga exercises.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physiotherapy to keep fit<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The moment you suffer from an injury, physiotherapy can help you recover from it. But more importantly, physiotherapy can help with the <\/span><b>prevent<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of injuries. Together with the physiotherapist, we look at how your body is put together and, based on this, a concrete plan is made to determine what kind of movements you can perform.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mobilisation is key when it comes to maintaining muscles in our bodies. Although the physiotherapist will take some time out of your day, in the long run it will help with maintaining your overall health. Doing exercises every day for about 15 - 20 minutes will help with preventing serious injuries. For someone with back pain, it is recommended to stretch the joints once or twice a day. This will greatly reduce injuries and back pain caused by lifting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suffering from an injury or stiffness during this cold spell?
