When You have a Cold, Do You Workout?
I have a cold, but really feel achy, stuffed a little, bad headache etc. I took 2 days off from the gym but again today I don't feel good. I don't know if I should take off another day.
The guilt is torture, and I feel so gross....I have not worked out since Friday morning and feel like I gained a few lbs. I took off Sat. & Sun. thinking I would be running again Monday morning.
What do you do?
Thanks!

I usually try to go if I can, but do some light cardio and that's about it.

honestly, stay home. the gym is the worst place to be when you are sick. wait until you are back at 100% then go

I feel one day resting to prevent a week or more of being sick is worth it...

If I am really miserable I won't work out, but usually I try to push through!

Re: When You have a Cold, Do You Workout?
No not if I am still achey. You def dont want to workout feeling achey, you dont want to get anyone else sick and the chances of you getting sick again if you dont wait are high. Dont worry, you will get better soon, I would do abs even in bed, and leg lifts, do light stuff at home. Feel Better!

That's what I am going through right now. I took off Sat, Sun and Mon. The way I feel right now (that's why I am up, I am so congested) looks like I won't run tomorrow. I want to be better by Christmas!!!!

Definitely stay home. I hate it when I am sick and running on a treadmill. Maybe u can do at home excercise. (Like walking back and forth to the fridge..jk) ; )

Re: When You have a Cold, Do You Workout?
I always stay in - no need to tax the body more - I need my energy to fight it off - I'd rather be out 1 day then a whole week (or more) because I pushed myself for a half-@ssed workout!!!
