1. Get as Fit as Possible
Research is showing that the fitter & more active you are, the less likely you are to be impacted by some of these infections. People that reported higher physical activity levels were less likely to experience COVID-19 symptoms according to this study.

There are so many benefits to exercising and doing something like StrongerLife. But one of the biggest benefits & often least discussed is what it does for our immune system! Exercise helps us fight infectious diseases & make sure we're impacted as little as possible!

2. Take Precautions
Washing hands, social distancing, & masking in tight places can be inconvenient but they're effective! These things have been proven to reduce the transmission of infections. These were effective during the COVID-19 pandemic and can still be effective today. These precautions are particularly important for folks that may be more susceptible to the infections of the Tripledemic. Don't let the headlines scare you. Yes, we're experiencing a lot of sickness around us this winter but YOU can do something about it! Be proactive and get as fit as possible & take precautions as needed.
