Do you still work out when your sick ?

[X-Tank]

Just woundering how how many people still go to the gym if your sick ie: like the flu, fever, etc.

[TheMudMan]

If I'm sick with a fever or flu...... I will not train.... but if I have a cold or something like that then yes.

[X-Tank]

ya same here if i feel like complete shit i will stop just woundering what other people outlooks are.

[halifaxsteve]

it all depends on how sick i feel, but the majority of the time i will still go, i find it makes me feel better.

[BUYLONGTERM]

flu as in throwing up? NO. slight fever or cold..YES. Hell, I just suck it up and block out any pain. Try lifting everday on bad wrists and shoulders. Its not fun, but it has to be done....

[punk_bbuilder]

Ill lift if im not too sick, but lifting while really sick like flu can cause even more of a brake down in the immune system.

[Rickson]

Don't lift when you are sick. I got pneumonia that way once.

[bermich]

Yeah. As much as I want to I just rest. I used to do crap like that. VERY VERY VERY dedicated to my martial arts. I swam and ran EVERY day REGARDLESS of the weather. It could be snowing and I would be out in the pool with a wet suit on swimming. The flu: I just took a shit load of ecanasia, contac and OJ and would be out running again. Stomache flu of course you just wish you were dead.

as a matter of fact, i am sick right now, and haven't missed a day at the gym. i feel better if i work out while im sick.

[bigol'legs]

Ill work out if im not to sick. Ive gone and worked out 15 minutes after getting 2 root canals. Guess the pain killers helped me out *)

[DF2003]

If Im Not Too Sick Ill Rest Sure Dont Wanna Take Any Chances On Prolonging Sickness

[zmatalucci]

In all seriousness,, it's not good to lift while your sick,,,especially while on juice. Your immune system is weaker while on a cycle.. Therefore a small illness could turn into a bigger problem then it's worth. Plus you dont really want to get everyone else at the gym sick,, unless you want to get ahead of them...

I lift when im sick, i know everyone says it is so bad for you but when i fuckin sick and i work out and burn a sweat I feel 10 times better when i leave....I dont train as hard though as usual depending on how sick i am.....
