How often do you miss scheduled workouts?

if during my warmups, a certain muscle I'm working feels odd, then I go home. I've learnt from the past not too push things.
I always like to do better than the last time I was at the gym. If I lift less reps, then I get more depressed than if I didn't workout at all

Its better to skip, than to try and fail, when it comes to workouts. This way I keep my motivation and morale up. Nothing worse than forcing a workout to then lift less, and then you've added even more fatigue, and extended your recovery further.

Well this is the case for me anyway - motivation is not a problem for me, but backing off is!

On those days, I'm still too obsessive to go home, so I make some drastic changes instead, ie, aim for volume instead of lifting heavy, or cut my rest periods down to a fraction of what they normally are

I missed a week after I got pnuemonia. I passed out in my bathroom and hit my head on the shelf and comode. I tried to push throught the sickness, but the ole body just took a shit on my (not literally).

Other than that, I had to take about 1 or 2 weeks of a year during college so I can get some stpid-ass giant project done so I don't fail.

Do any of you give blood regularly? The only time I ever skip workouts is if I've given blood that day. You're not supposed to partake in any strenuous activity for 12 hours. I figure it's a small price to pay to help save someones life.
