AFL Viewing Syndrome Advice!
The 2015 AFL Season is upon us and more importantly the Derby is here!
To make sure you do not suffer from the “AFL Viewing Syndrome” simply follow these Cannington Physiotherapy TV Survival Tips!
1. Get up from your lounge chair at least every quarter.
2. Do plenty of hamstring, groin and calf stretches in the ad breaks, there is nothing worse than pulling a ‘hammy’ reaching for the remote.
3. Remember if, or when, the umpire makes a bad call it’s not an excuse to dislocate your shoulder by yelling and shaking your fist at the TV.
4. Drink plenty of fluids – watching sport can be de-hydrating
Finally, use the motivation you gain from watching great athletes to motivate yourself to get out and do some exercise of your own.
