Working out When Sick?

[FyreWomanGoddess]

My pedicurist gave me her cold and I went to do some cardio today after church and I almost felt like dying while I was on the treadmill.

Better to rest and come back when you're well for a great workout rather than do a crappy half-ass one when you're sick. Working out when you are sick can just prolong your illness. Plus, you don't want to infect your trainer and have to miss a workout because he/she is sick.

So happy to find this thread! I've been laying off training and visiting here becasue of a serious cold (the semibedridden kind) and feeling soooo guilty.

I guess I'll just relax for one more day and then see how bad the damage is. On the other hand, I've lost some problem fat due to an extreme lack of appetite, lol.

I almost threw up after I got done lifting today.

Thanks for alll the advise. Tomorrow is actually going to be my first workout of any kind in a week. I feel SO yucky in terms of lacking physical activity but I'm not even 100% yet. I feel completely drained. I've been sleeping more. I'm glad I'm just about over whatever it is.

Fyre- felt sick from a hard workout or felt sick like you have something??
