Valley Physio

The stronger you are the harder you are to hurt Check out the exercise recommendations put out by the WHO: ... https://www.who.int/news-r/fact-sheets//physical-activity Unfortunately I see a surge in non traumatic body issues that seem to have ‘come out of nowhere’ this time of year. Non traumatic joint/muscle/tendon/ligament/nerve issues are often associated with an UPSWING or DOWNSWING in physical activity. A common pattern is that people less active during the cold and cosy months in the great white north and the result can be quite significant issues that come from ‘doing nothing’ These issues tend to be kept more at bay by maintaining a consistent routine of exercise despite the season. This is much easier said than done, especially during a pandemic, but stick to the basics: - find some exercises that you don’t hate, if you do there’s always an alternative. - 2 x per week is enough ( 3 x is a bit better), recovery days are important. - a comfortable space to work out is really important. - dial the exercises to be challenging, non threatening and repeatable - if you hit moderate fatigue after 20 - 40 minutes of doing them that’s a good start. - build up gradually, go for the long haul . If it isn’t working for you, make a change. If you ever find yourself trying to figure out how ‘doing nothing’ made you sore, the answer is probably right there *if your intuition is telling you to get advice before diving into a strength program then consult with a physician or health professional first* #dolessnothing #reinforceyourtemple #physio #strengthening #valleyphysio #prehabforlife #rehab #osteopathy #chiropractics #painprevention #cantgowronggettingstrong #smithersbc #bchealth See more
