Working out when ill?
For the first time since I've started working out, I find myselft ill. Is it OK to workout when you are not well? I've got some sort of sinus congestion.
Thanks for any info.So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

I agree. I usually will continue to workout with a minor cold, but not if it's more serious. I lost some significant weight and strength not too terribly long ago when I was sick for about a week. It sucks, but it's part of life.

my teacher told me he was hardcore bodybuilding for about 6 years and got to be pretty big.

He hasnt worked out since.
This is a very scary story and would suck terribly bad if that happened. I feel sorry for the guy.

Sinuses I dont know much about, but I had a cold for about 2 weeks because I worked through it.

it depends on just how sick I am, but typically I do not train when I am sick, my body needs all of the energy to fight off the illness.

Thats exactly what happened to me, as I stated in the other thread. Luckily, I didnt have it as long as some other people. I have heard stories where it lingers for over a year though. Originally Posted by swick

When I have flu (temp and aches), I found that if I put on full sweats and ride the bike for 30 minutes, work up a good sweat, take a shower and then get a good nights sleep, it is gone the next day. Originally Posted by cfs3
