Morning exercise routines for mobility

Overview

Health experts and organizations, such as the AOK, recommend five-minute morning exercise routines to reduce stiffness, activate the circulatory system, and improve mental stability. These mini-interventions are noted as particularly beneficial for addressing morning stiffness that often increases after age 50 due to inactivity during sleep.

Recommended movements include foot pumps, heel slides, knee-to-chest stretches, knee tilts, and bridges. Physiotherapy expert Dr. Michél Gleich notes that these routines improve general mobility and stimulate the cardiovascular system. Other suggested approaches include abdominal breathing combined with full-body stretching or the ‘cat-cow’ pose.
