Kraus recommends gradually increasing physical activity ahead of the season rather than waiting.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court will hear oral arguments and a challenge to the Act 10 legislation passed in 2011.
The court released an order on Wednesday stating it would review the lawsuit brought against the Wisconsin Employment Relations Commission by the Abbotsford Education Association, which argues carve-outs in the Act 10 legislation covering collective bargaining rights for public safety workers violates the Equal Protection Clause of the state constitution.
Democratic state lawmakers have also shared their intent to repeal Act 10 with new majorities in the legislature.
With the midterm election in the rearview mirror, state lawmakers have chosen their party leaders in the legislature.
On Tuesday, Wisconsin Democrats elected State Senator Diane Hesselbein to serve as Senate Majority Leader and State Representative Greta Neubauer to serve as Assembly Speaker after flipping control of both chambers of the state legislature.
Both had served as the minority party leaders in the legislature under Republican majorities.
State Representative Neubauer also became the first woman to ever be elected as Assembly Speaker.
Following the votes on Tuesday, Democratic state lawmakers
said they're already discussing their legislative priorities with their new majority.
Those priorities include addressing a number of persistent issues affecting communities across the state, like increasing public school funding, expanding access to health care, and lowering costs for residents.
Now with the minority party in the legislature, Wisconsin Republicans elected State Senator Julian Bradley to serve as Senate Minority Leader and State Representative Tyler August to serve as Assembly Minority Leader.
