Workout can be one way to prevent the transmission of the COVID-19 virus. The reason, according to research results, people who workout regularly are less likely to get sick compared to people who rarely workout. This is because when you workout, the performance of white blood cells will be stimulated. These white blood cells function as antibodies to fight various types of germs that enter the body. Workout is believed to help remove bacteria from the lungs that allow the body to develop cold symptoms and other illnesses. When workout, body temperature also increases. This can prevent bacteria from growing in the body, and by increasing body temperature it can also help the body fight infection. In addition, being active in exercise can also reduce stress hormones in the body and increase endorphins which are useful as natural painkillers and mood enhancers (happy hormones).
