Your Spring Activity Guide: FAQs
How can I safely increase my activity levels this spring?
Gradually increase your activity levels by starting at an intensity your body can handle, and build up the duration and intensity over time. This helps your body adapt and reduces the risk of injury.
What are some common signs of overtraining?
Common signs include persistent fatigue, decreased performance, prolonged muscle soreness, and increased susceptibility to injuries. If you’re unsure about how to manage these symptoms, a Physio can help figure out your loading sweet spot in order to reduce risk of overtraining.
How can I prevent injuries as I become more active?
Incorporate a balanced routine that includes strength training, mobility exercises, and proper warm-ups and cool-downs. Or seek professional advice if you’re feeling uncertain about any of these.
When should I seek professional help for a niggle?
If a niggle persists for more than a few days, worsens with activity, or is changing the way you move, we recommend speaking to a Physio to get ahead of it. Early intervention can prevent minor issues from becoming serious injuries.
What role does a physiotherapist play in managing training loads?
A physiotherapist can assess your current fitness and strength levels, see how you move, provide personalized exercise plans, and offer guidance on safely increasing your activity levels while minimizing injury risks.
