Hay fever can cause annoying symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath and cold symptoms. The last thing on your mind is to exercise outdoors. This is quite understandable, but of course not conducive to your health. If you are an avid athlete, you naturally want to maintain your accumulated fitness. We tell you how you can keep working on your fitness despite your hay fever symptoms!
Indoor sports with hay fever
Of course, the most comfortable thing is to exercise indoors. There are several ways to work on your fitness indoors. Purchase a skipping rope, clear out the garage and you have a great space to work on your fitness. Of course, you can also look for a YouTube video or online exercises to train what you want to train.
Still exercise outdoors with hay fever
With the weather getting better and better, it is actually nice to get out and about. To minimise hay fever symptoms, we have some handy tips:
- On the beach, there are relatively few pollen, so plan a lovely walk on the beach.
- Put your clothes in the wash immediately after being outside. This is because pollen remains in clothing.
- Showering after exercising is natural. Do the same after a walk, as pollen can also get into your hair. As a result, you may continue to suffer from hay fever symptoms.
- Go outside after a rainstorm or early in the morning. These are the times when there is less pollen in the air.
