Daily Fit Tip: Exercise indoors to avoid seasonal allergies

Posted on May 11th 2007 6:00AM by Rigel Celeste
Seasonal allergies can sideline you better than an actual illness if you let them go untreated, but all too often the treatment comes along with side-effects that are arguably as bad as or even worse than the original symptoms. Some people swear that exercise helps gets things moving (like sinuses), but for some it only makes things worse.

If you're one of those where it seems to make things worse, are you exercising outdoors? If you already have allergies then huffing and puffing and breathing the irritants even deeper into your lungs is obviously going to not going to make things better for you. So try working out indoors (if you haven't already). Depending on the severity of your allergies, it could make all the difference. I know some people who have allergies that are just as bad inside as out, but it's worth a shot! Switching indoors (I know, it stinks to be stuck inside this time of year) does work for some people.
