Already fit for the winter? Is your fascia tissue elastic, strong and supple to help with injury to your next winter sports experience?
Fascia, the connecting structure in the body is the physical component. It is important that you prepare your body with suitable exercises, that you can react especially in unforeseen circumstances and stay healthy.
- At first, use a jumper and jump in the classic way – with one, with both legs or backwards. Do the same (like outdoors) as cross-country skis or snowboard boots, so you can adjust the body to the weight on the feet
-
- Move sideways from the jumper to the four-legged stand. Now “jump” with your hands on the jumper – with one hand, with both or backwards. Lift your knees off the floor, this trains the whole body.
- Sit in the stirrup, put one foot on the inner thigh of the other leg and lean down to the stretched leg. Where do you feel the greatest restriction in your body? Lie down with this spot on a FASZIO® ball and relax on it. Only when the defensive tension has subsided do you slowly (about 1 cm per long breath) start to slide the body in different directions over the ball to loosen bonds. After 1-3 minutes, test your elasticity again on your flank. Repeat the exercise if necessary. You may be aware of another limited job that you want to focus on. Then change the page.
With the first two exercises you train the elasticity of your arms and legs and include the entire body. With the 3rd exercise you loosen adhesions in the lateral trunk area, so that a smooth rotation ability is given. It increases performance and reduces the susceptibility to injury, if you additionally take advantage of exercise offers in the 3 months before your next winter holiday, which bring you out of your comfort zone.
The most important thing is: have fun!

Präha: Why targeted training before surgery is so importantSurgery is always a challenge for the body. Whether it is the knee, hip, shoulder or spine – every procedure means stress for the tissue, a phase of immobilization and then the arduous reconstruction. What many do not know: How well the body regenerates after surgery depends decisively on how well it was prepared beforehand. This is exactly where prehabilitation comes in – the preoperative phase in which targeted training sets the course for a better healing process.Mehr lesen -
Daily Back Exercises: More Strength, Less Tension, Better Body AwarenessA strong back does not happen by chance.

Exercise builds strength: How we can encourage children to be more active through playChildren naturally move in a very instinctive way. They run, jump, climb, balance – and discover the world in the process. But in the everyday life of many families, reality looks different: long periods of sitting at school, homework, digital media, and a tightly scheduled daily routine often cause natural movement to shrink. Yet movement is not only important for physical development, but also for concentration, self-confidence, and emotional stability.Mehr lesen -

Start with a home workout—and make exercise a regular part of your daily routine.Getting started with training does not begin with perfection, but with a simple principle: consistency beats intensity. Especially in everyday life, which is often full, hectic, and unpredictable, movement quickly becomes secondary. Yet this is exactly where the key lies: When movement becomes a natural part of your day, not only your body changes – but your overall well-being as well.Mehr lesen -
Heavy Legs? – How the TOGU Senso Vein Trainer can helpHeavy legs, feelings of tension, or tired calves in the evening – many people are familiar with this unpleasant problem. Those who sit or stand a lot, or who get little exercise, quickly notice that their legs become heavy and swollen. The cause can sometimes be a weakness in venous function: the blood doesn't flow back optimally, it pools in the legs – and this leads to the typical feeling of heaviness.Mehr lesen -
