It’s that time of year, especially in Wisconsin, where we experience ever changing weather. Warm temperatures and rain to below zero temperatures and snow, we never know what weather March has in store for us! With changes in seasons and temperatures, it is common to notice an impact on your body and pain.
Colder temperatures can cause an increase in muscle stiffness and discomfort. Something to consider on days with colder temperatures is to incorporate gentle warm up exercises in the morning to decrease stiffness, kickstart circulation, and prepare your body for the day.
Warmer temperatures can cause muscle tension and fatigue by causing increased inflammation and swelling to tendons putting pressure on nerves in joints that can lead to increased pain. With warmer temperatures be sure to not overexert yourself and stay hydrated to decrease the risk of inflammation.
Seeking support through gentle non-impactful exercise can stimulate blood flow, ease stiffness, and aid in the healing process, offering much-needed relief whatever the weather.
Pay attention to the climate and temperature around you and tailor your workouts to the weather to ensure the safest workouts possible.
Most importantly, keep moving forward with your workouts and have fun!
