The five pillars according to Kneipp

Movement
========

With energy and enthusiasm
--------------------------

Anyone visiting Bad Wörishofen can't help but want to get moving! The tranquil, pedestrian-friendly town center with its numerous boutiques and cafés, the nearby green spaces—especially the expansive spa park—and the surrounding countryside, which seems tailor-made for cycling tours, are simply too inviting, offering a diverse range of sporting opportunities.

Take it easy! We can read in Kneipp's writings that this form of exercise is entirely in keeping with his philosophy. While he did mention the beneficial, detoxifying effects of sweating, he explicitly stated that he wasn't referring to competitive sports when he spoke of exercise. Rather, everyone should be mindful of challenging themselves moderately and not overexerting themselves.

> The best exercise for gymnastic purposes would be to perform physical work from time to time that not only improves flexibility but also increases strength through lifting and carrying.

Sebastian Kneipp, 1821-1897
