Exercises to Combat Fatigue & Lack of Energy

Regular physical activity is one of the most effective ways to combat fatigue and restore energy levels. MHV Clinic recommends the following exercises, which are designed to boost your energy without over-exerting your body:

Low-Intensity Aerobic Exercise

Activities like walking, swimming, or cycling can improve circulation and oxygenate your muscles, helping reduce feelings of fatigue. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise most days of the week.

Yoga and Stretching

Yoga helps manage stress, improve flexibility, and promote relaxation, all of which can alleviate physical and mental fatigue. Focus on breathing exercises like Pranayama to enhance oxygen flow and energy.

Strength Training

Light strength training can help improve muscle endurance and reduce physical fatigue. Simple bodyweight exercises such as squats, lunges, and push-ups are practical without overwhelming the body.

Mindfulness and Meditation

Meditation and mindfulness exercises can help reduce mental and emotional fatigue by calming the mind and reducing stress. These exercises are crucial for those experiencing mental exhaustion.

Tai Chi and Qi Gong

These ancient practices combine slow, deliberate movements with breathing exercises to boost energy flow and reduce fatigue.
