Multiple studies support that exercise in the Moderate Zone will modulate up the immune system. Changes in musculo-skeletal, respiratory, cholesterol and blood pressure all indicate moderate exercise has a beneficial effect on our bodies.
What recent studies now suggest is that to increase exercise will increase the risk of upper respiratory infection by suppression of the immune/adrenal axis. What we also need to take into consideration is our emotional/mental responses to work, family, finances, relatives, etc. If we go from the fire to the frying pan in different areas of our lives, it may not be a good time to hit the exercise hard this week.
Monitoring Urine & Saliva pH, resting heart rate and portable heart rate variability all can give me true body feedback on my intensity and endurance for today’s exercise.
