Should I exercise when I’m sick?
Preferably not. When you are unwell, your immune system is already under pressure to combat illness. Exercising only places additional stress on the body, which can prolong or exacerbate your condition. The best thing you can do for yourself when you’re sick is take a day off work, eat lots of fresh food, read a good book, and relax! Once you’ve recovered you’ll be more mentally alert and be able to put twice as much into your training!
