I hate debating what to do when I’m sick. I had a cough for 3 weeks and I did workout lightly but I couldn’t do a lot of cardio or I’d go into fits of coughing. It makes it much harder to get back into the routine even after of few days off!

@Tom Parker - Free Fitness Tips, @Paunchiness, and @Steve@Success Factors - I am glad that I am not the only one that still try to squeeze something in even when I am sick. But I wonder if we are part of the selected few.

I love this post, because I have always had this question at the back of my mind. I think moderation is a good principle to follow. I usually try to do a lighter workout, like you were saying, and listen to my body. Sometimes, less is more, but you can’t use that as an excuse to stop exercising

depends on how sick you are. I usually feel better after a bit of a work out...it gets rid of a hang over or helps the cold along. If you're really sick then stay home and rest. Paunchinesss last blog post......Where Do Thanksgiving Turkeys Come From?

I generally try to stick with my exercise routine unless my illness is so bad it prevents me from doing so. Sometimes I do start to feel lightheaded and have to cut my workout short if I am a bit under the weather but I always attempt to workout in some form.
