How To Restart Your Fitness Regime:
1. Get Your Doctor’s Approval

The first step to restarting your fitness routine is to make sure you are cleared to exercise by your doctor. This is extremely important because overexerting yourself or not giving your body enough time to heal will only lead to further damage.

2. Slow And Steady Wins The Race

While you may have got your doctors seal of approval to exercise it doesn’t give you the freedom to get back into the intense fitness routine you did before your bout with COVID-19. Start slow with a walk, light jogging or yoga and gradually increase the intensity. Remember resistance training is a big NO!
3.
Say Yes To Low-intensity Exercises

The best way to know if you aren’t overdoing it is to make sure you can say a sentence at all times. In other words, you shouldn’t run out of breath while exercising, if you do, you need to stop and take a break. Try brisk walking, cycling and our recovery class.

4. Check Your Vitals During The Workout

It’s crucial that you always check your pulse before, during and after the workout. Stop if you feel breathless or faint. Pushing yourself will only lead to back into illness.
5. Drink Plenty Of Fluids

The golden rule for a healthy body is to stay hydrated. We cannot stress how important it is to keep yourself hydrated at all times. Ensure you drink 7 cups of water every day, eat plenty of water-rich foods like cucumber, watermelon, apples, lettuce and broth.
6. Listen To Your Body

Last but definitely not least, pay attention to what your body is trying to tell you. Look out for red flags. If something feels off, like shortness of breath, fatigue and other warning signs, it’s better to visit your doctor for the best course of action.
