Honestly - move. I didn’t realize how much better life without allergies was until I moved to Miami

uplifting

Some quick additional things to try are: showering immediately after going outside, try to not wear clothes that have been outside inside and wash before wearing again, non mediated saline spray from the drugstore helps me as well. For relief, sometimes I’ll boil water on the stove and breathe the steam in, it helps relieve some pressure

Thanks EY1. I was also suggested by folks to try yoga. Especially breathing exercises

Local honey is supposed to help, but I do a mix of allergy pills, Flonase, mucinex and an inhaler. Still feeling awful right now

Also make sure your environment is dust free, vacuum frequently, or even better get someone else to vacuum so you don’t deal witth any dust.

6’0 and weighed in at 220lbs today. All time high and have gained 20lbs since gyms closed in March. When I did workout it was more or less 100% compound lifts. I’m now limited to a few kettlebells but am not even close to as consistent as I was. Any idea on how I can lose this excess 20lbs? I feel like it crept up over night.
