Take Breaks: Short breaks give your muscles time to recover and reduce strain.

Gear Matters: Opt for ergonomic tools and wear proper footwear to support your body.

Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration maintains muscle function.

Stretch It Out: Regular stretches improve flexibility and decrease the risk of injury.

Listen to Your Body: If something feels off, pause and assess – don’t push through discomfort.
