Austin / Jordan,
Care to take a look at this recent study and opine on it’s validity:
"CAN WEIGHTLIFTING KEEP YOU FROM GETTING SICK? IMMUNITY STUDY EXPLAINS"
There’s some fairly complex immunobiology here, and – as is typical with these sorts of things – the media headline makes a fairly enormous leap from what the study is actually examining.
Training and increasing muscle mass have a variety of benefits across essentially all body systems including immune function, as you know. We discussed this in podcast episode 96.
