I got sick when visiting my dad on easter. Pops had a cold and that he said only lasted 48 hours. I now have said cold, and am choosing not to work out. I don't want to get everyone sick at the gym, and I don't think I'd be gaining anything but joint pain rn. /fit/, pass your judgements down upon me. What do you do when you're sick? It was decline day, but not it's soup day.

I don't even lift when healthy, lmao.
Of course no
There's no point on lifting if you're gonna do it wrong and weak
Nah, if I'm really sick I just stay home and rest. Worst thing to do is prolong the recovery by hitting the gym and not even hitting your normal numbers.

Yea I do, no excuses. Just go to the bathroom when you need to blow your nose and wash your hands

This. I'll go towards the tail end of a cold, but lifting while sick is miserable and just makes you feel worse for longer

>getting sick
>making it
You need to improve your immune system if you're going to be serious about lifting.

had just the same situation right now, after a total of 10 days without gym my body felt ok and i said fuck it need to work up again anyways some coughing at the gym wont kill me. dont wait till youre completely healthy, just go when ur muscles feel normal again and avoid cardio

You still got sick though.
Getting sick once a year is way too much and not normal, I haven't been sick since I was 13 and I'm 23 and a half now.

How do I improve my immune system? I eat healthy, wash my hands, I'm clean and don't smoke I obviously exercise well too. What do you do to avoid plague?
>>36553393
Dunno about you guys, but lifting + cardio knocks any flu right out of my system. Might not work for everybody tho, so just try it out once and see for yourself. Just work out with lower numbers/intensity if you're feeling weaker
