damaskus [11]

Exercise is the primary advice the coaches give to the athletes if they get a cold or any other infection. The main reason behind this advice is the fact that exercising strengthens the immunity of a person. When a person has an infection, the strengthening of the immune system will help his body to efficiently fight against the infectious pathogens.
