The immune system is significantly influenced by exercise, especially natural killer (NK) cells. When it comes to the innate immune system, the function of NK cells is vital.
Moderate-intensity type of exercise according to previous studies have shown the greatest benefit to the immune system, in terms of improving NK activity, however, the interplay between different types, frequencies, intensities, and durations of exercise remains less understood.
The study concluded that moderate-intensity and moderate-duration tends to elicit favorable results such as sustaining NK activity. Overall exercise should not only be promoted for improving a person's physical health but also their immune heath as well. Understanding this area of work more can allow clinicians to implement exercise programs for individuals who are immunocompromised such as individuals living with cancer.

Running on a treadmill every day will not prepare us to carry our kids out of a burning building, and doing nothing but biceps curls and leg presses will not help us get up off the ground after a fall when we’re old.
