Abstract

Since the declared health emergency due to the appearance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, primary prevention measures have been established; however, little has been said regarding to regular physical exercise, despite the fact that there is evidence that physical exercise helps to strengthen the cardiorespiratory and immune system, so there is a possibility that this could be a method of prevention and as therapy after recovery , since people with a weak immune system and whith a systemic inflammation processes are more likely to get this virus. That is why the present research aims to show updated evidence aboutt he regular practice of physical exercise and its benefits during and after this lockdown.
