during the coronavirus outbreak, there's a consistent companion message: it's important to keep moving. Exercise, outdoors and indoors, helps maintain good physical and mental health during this stressful time.Let's start outside, where health experts say the risk of infection is lower than inside."That's due to a variety of factors," says Dr.
Biking, running, power-walking can be done while maintaining at least a 6-foot social distance. Hiking too, although at times that 6 feet can shrink to near nothing on narrow trails. When possible, outdoor exercisers should even try to increase the recommended 6 feet of social distancing."The mnemonic I like to use is double your distance," says Dr. Ben Levine, a professor of Medicine and Cardiology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. Levine also directs the Institute for Exercise and Environmental Medicine at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital.
"The [friend] had been in his house the last two weeks [with] no symptoms," Winthrop says."I let them throw a baseball but I made them wash their hands before and I made them wash their hands after. I told them not to touch their faces with their hands. And I reinforced the idea that they had to be at least six feet apart, which of course is easy to do when you're playing catch.
Allowing your children to play catch or basketball with friends is NOT smart social distancing, even if the kids stand six feet apart.
EDGODFREY I can agree and do my part to exercise in my garage or if I run be the one to go out of my way to distance. That being said, the most dangerous place I’ve been is the grocery store. It’s the essential place that everything is getting touched multiple times by so many people.

According to this new study, droplets from sneezing could travel up to 7-8 meters!
I passed a women on the trail giving her at least 6 feet (she was walking I was running), I could smell her perfume trail for another 20 feet at least -- gave me pause -- I also wondered if she had lost her sense of smell......and what that could mean....
richardpbacon Joggers need to fucking sort it out the selfish pricks - they think they are immortal just because the dress like a power ranger
richardpbacon I thought joggers were exempt from ‘social distancing’...at least that’s the impression I got from the countless people who sweep past me without even trying to change direction.
Are supposed to stay indoors. That is not critical.
How come I've seen not one news source discuss the legality of stay-at-home orders? Is it because they are complicit?
People just put a you tube video and do it inside your kitchen your room whatever.. This virus is crazy.
Geez, the gym is closed and I can't exercise outside. I guess I'll have to sit and watch TV.
Why are tennis courts and golf courses closed? (hint: It's not about social distancing)
