Thank you for this informations, I always wondered if it is better to wait or to go on with daily routine.

I always try to work out, even when I'm sick. I go slow , see what I can do and how I actually feel. A lot of times after I work out when I'm sick, I feel a lot better. it

If I go to the gym sick they ask me to leave. It's pretty rude to pass all those germs around folks trying to get healthy.

I workout at home, no travel time and no missing workout because of Wisconsin weather winter.

Just remember to wash your hands at the gym before you leave! Imagine how many bugs you can get from all the equipment hundreds have touched with the flu virus.

I never do anymore. It has always made me more sick.

I recently had the flu and when I felt better I was really jazzed to get back to the gym. I went and even went pretty light. Well, it was too early and I put myself back in the bed.

The workout may not have been totally to blame as my appetite was still in the gutter and I didn't eat properly for a few days after the lifting.
