Glad to see bfr mentioned. Although its recognized by US doctors and therapists, it's not practiced here. Odd. Recuperating from a broken ankle, I saw your January. 2020, bfr interviews with several people including the Norwegian-born Jim Stray-Gundersen, MD of goBStrong Training in Utah. Stray-Gundersen has been interviewed by Dr. Mercola twice. I was impressed. Subsequently I bought the under $500 package of leg and arm bands with the pressure pump BStrong offers. I've been using it for several months on my own, using only video instruction, because local doctors and therapists are unacquainted with its practical use. Strange that this technique can be perfected for fifty years in Japan while being hardly know or utilized in the U.S. Those who are interested can check out goBStrong as well as Stray-Gundersen to see and learn what the Utah group does.

"New study"? If people don't realize by now, how vital to human health exercise is...they never will!

Another study found that cycling at an amateur level is anti-aging for our immune system in terms of T-cell production. www.theguardian.com/.../cycling-keeps-your-immune-system-young-study-finds According to the latest news, even if we have strict social isolation, we urgently need a solution as more than 200,000 Americans are known to be infected with the virus, and the predictions don't show much hope. Hopefully, there's enough time to get fit and healthy enough to beat the disease. Definitely, we should practice good hygiene to prevent new cases under isolation, freeing up medical resources. It's important to be patient while doing social isolation even when we feel safe. Even driving isn't recommended because if we get into an accident, we risk exposure from meeting other people. There are plenty of ways to stay occupied. We can get eight hours of sleep, which many of us feel are optimal, cook, work out, and learn a new skill.
