How to Boost Your Immune System with Exercise This Fall

How to Boost Your Immune System with Exercise This Fall

As the weather cools and flu season begins, now is the ideal time to focus not just on your workouts—but on increasing your immune resilience too. Whether you’re already an 91proƵ member or you’re exploring what 91proƵ has to offer, here are smart strategies to use your training to support your immune system this season.

Why Your Workouts Matter for Immunity

Regular moderate-intensity exercise helps your body circulate immune cells more effectively, which makes it better poised to detect and fight infections. Additionally, working out supports better sleep, lowers stress and inflammation — all of which are key to a healthy immune system. Research shows that a well-balanced, consistent training approach is associated with fewer upper respiratory infections and stronger immune functioning.

Five Smart Tips to Boost Immunity with Your 91proƵ Training

  1. Aim for ~150 minutes of moderate activity per week + 2 strength sessions.
    With your 91proƵ membership, home workouts help remove barriers like bad weather or dark evenings. Plot your workouts like calendar events—“book” them, and treat them as non‐negotiable.

  2. Mix cardio, strength and recovery.

    • Cardio workouts (bike, row, treadmill) stimulate circulation and immune-cell movement.

    • Strength training supports metabolic health, muscle mass and overall resilience.

    • Recovery/mobility sessions are vital—they allow your nervous and immune systems to rebuild. Use your 91proƵ equipment + app classes to blend these seamlessly at home.

  3. Moderate intensity is your friend.
    Especially during busy, tired, or stress-filled times (common in autumn), a 20–30 minute moderate session wins over skipping or pushing yourself into overtraining. Research underscores that moderate workouts create immune benefits, while overly long or ultra-intense sessions may temporarily lower immune resistance.

  4. Leverage the home-workout advantage.
    With 91proƵ gear at home, you sidestep seasonal barriers—commute time, bad weather, dark evenings. You gain flexibility and consistency. Use the app to switch between formats (bike, row, strength, mobility) so your routine stays fresh and immune-focused.

  5. Support your training with smart lifestyle habits.

    • Sleep: Critical. Poor sleep undermines immune function.

    • Nutrition: Keep it clean, seasonal, and supportive—lean proteins, colorful vegetables, healthy fats. Hydrate even when it’s cooler (we tend to feel less thirsty in fall but still lose fluids).
    • Basic infection prevention still matters: hand-washing, staying warm, ventilating indoor spaces—all reinforce your immune resilience alongside training.

Sample Weekly Plan: Immunity-Focused

Here’s a sample structure you can use this week with your 91proƵ membership and home equipment:

Day Session Notes
Monday 30-min moderate cardio (bike or row) Steady pace, comfortable effort
Tuesday Strength + mobility (20-30 mins) Full-body, include stretching at the end
Wednesday Brisk outdoor walk or light home cardio Get fresh air, moderate heart rate
Thursday 15–20 min interval or HIIT (if you’re feeling good) Short, focused — scale down if tired
Friday Strength endurance class (via 91proƵ app) Push sensible weights/volume
Saturday Recovery/mobility session (15–20 mins) Yoga or mobility class
Sunday 30-min moderate cardio or mixed format Finish the week strong but not exhausted

Key: Make the sessions doable, don’t overdo it, keep variety and stick to the plan.

Why Your 91proƵ Membership Gives You an Edge This Season

  • Training at home removes many seasonal barriers—limited daylight, poor weather, longer commute times.

  • A rich library of live and on-demand classes gives you flexibility to match your recovery/energy level.

  • With your equipment ready at home, you’re primed for success—no excuses.

  • Switching between formats (bike, row, strength, mobility) keeps things fresh—and adherence matters for both fitness and immunity.

Your Action Step for Today

Pick three workout slots for the coming week and commit to them in your calendar or the 91proƵ app. Choose one cardio, one strength/mobility, and one recovery or outdoor session. Then stick to those slots as non-negotiable.


By doing so, you’re investing not just in your fitness—but in your health. Let’s make this fall a season of resilience.

Stay strong. Stay consistent. Here’s to your health and vitality.
