In South Korea, researchers found that working out REDUCES your risk of getting Covid-19. Here’s a direct link to the study. The study evaluated 76,395 people that had been tested for Covid AND had recently completed a national health examination (including an assessment for physical activity.) What they found: Adults who worked out (cardio + strength training): #1: Had a LOWER risk of Covid-19 infection (2.6% vs. 3.1%) 👉 This means you are LESS likely to get infected with the virus if you exercise (according to the study). #2: Had a LOWER risk of Severe Covid-19 (0.35% vs 0.66%) 👉 This means there’s nearly 2X MORE risk of ending up with severe COVID if you don’t exercise (according to the study). #3: Had a LOWER risk of Covid-19-related death (0.02% vs 0.08%) 👉 This means there’s nearly 4x MORE risk of dying a COVID-related death if you don’t exercise (according to the study). … Compared to those who didn’t meet South Korean exercise guidelines. (150 minutes a week and 2 strength-training sessions.) The South Korean researchers said regular exercise helps: The study also noted that the World Health Organization recommends people be as active as possible … AND encourages everyone to engage in regular aerobic physical activity, as well as bone and muscle-strengthening activity.
