Keeping fit doesn't necessarily mean running a marathon or lifting weights. It's more a question of maintaining a level of activity suited to your abilities and your life goals. Stable physical fitness is one of the best ways of maintaining long-term health at any age.

Numerous studies show that regular physical activity reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, musculoskeletal disorders and even depression. The simple act of moving around, whether in a structured or unstructured way, stimulates the metabolism, strengthens muscles and bones, and improves organ function.

But fitness isn't just about sport. It's also about joint mobility, balance, flexibility and the ability to perform everyday tasks without pain or excessive fatigue. Physical fitness means being able to walk without discomfort, climb stairs without getting out of breath, and recover quickly after exercise. It's the basis of independence and body confidence.

To keep fit, it's never too late to start. Appropriate sessions of muscle strengthening, stretching, Pilates or simply regular walking can already transform general physical condition. In physiotherapy, a personalised exercise programme can gradually restore mobility, endurance and stability.

In addition to its physiological effects, regular exercise also has a positive impact on mental well-being. It releases endorphins, improves sleep quality and reduces stress. Taking care of your fitness also means taking care of your mood, concentration and energy.

In short, keeping fit means investing in your health. An active body is more resistant, more stable and more serene in the face of the challenges of everyday life.
