We now know, those at the highest risk populations for getting<br />
COVID-19 are individuals older than 65 years and/or with pre-existing<br />
conditions. Although we cannot turn back the clock, there<br />
are two ways Purlife can step in – and that is consistent exercise<br />
and adequate nutritional choices. Guess what the best way is to<br />
prevent falling into a high-risk category? Making healthy lifestyle<br />
choices so you do not get a condition to begin with! Even so, exercise<br />
has been shown and proven beneficial for older adults and<br />
people with chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, arthritis,<br />
or heart disease. Regular exercise is essential for everyone under<br />
normal circumstances. However, here are a few more reasons why<br />
exercise is especially crucial during the COVID-19 pandemic:<br />
• Boosts immune system: research shows that regular, moderate-intensity<br />
exercise has immune-boosting benefits that can help<br />
your body fight off infections, including COVID-19.<br />
• Weight maintenance: Offset the effects of sedentary activities<br />
and burn off those extra calories you may have been consuming<br />
during the lockdown.<br />
• Reduces stress and anxiety: a proven mood-booster and can<br />
help adults reduce stress levels and build emotional resilience.<br />
• Improves sleep: There is evidence that suggests regular exercise<br />
helps you fall asleep faster and improves sleep quality — and getting a<br />
good night’s sleep has also been found to boost your immune system.<br />
Regular exercise improves balance, flexibility, strength, mobility,<br />
and cardiovascular health. Plus, it can boost energy and overall<br />
well-being. Not sure what to do or how to do it? Ask for one of<br />
our highly qualified staff and personal trainers who will guide you<br />
with proper form, creating exercise regiments specific to the individual’s<br />
needs and past history.<br />
We at Purlife are dedicated and committed to not only your fitness,<br />
but to your health and safety. We understand that there are<br />
those of you who may be hesitant to venture back out into the “new<br />
normal.” Whether you are revving to go, on the fence, or hesitant,<br />
we can whole-heartedly say that we have taken every possible precaution<br />
and made every effort to make everyone comfortable and<br />
safe. We did not focus on “What If,” we focused on what we CAN do!<br />
