Training with a cold....
Hello.

Got a bit of a cold at the mo - dont worry, it's not man-flu, so I should survive!!

But....is it ok to train with a cold? - I have heard mumblings that it might not be a good idea, but is that just 'old wives tales'?


Cheers

Re: Training with a cold....
You feel like sh*t but your muscles don't know you've got a cold.

I train with a cold but tend to go a bit lighter or fewer sets. More of a maintenance session.

Re: Training with a cold....
when i got man flu i find it tends to go quicker after a good workout, sinuses seem to be clearer etc due to heavy breathing i think,

followed by a good hot shower im tip top again normally

Re: Training with a cold....
Carefull mate though if your body is to worn down you could be at greater risk from injury so if you dont feel up for it lower the intensity.
