Should I exercise with a head cold?

[gladgirl]

So…firstly, are you feeling better?
Secondly, did you or did you not workout?

I am on week 3 of a lingering head cold. I did walk and it felt good.
Unfortunately I feel so fatigued. Haven’t done much else and am getting antsy.

I started today with an easy Pilates workout. I am somewhat upset because I was doing well with a split weight lifting routine. My clothes were getting looser so it was working. I'm still not ready to go to my previous level because I still have some symptoms. I'll see how I feel tomorrow.

I understand how you feel. I was really doing good at the gym, going several times a week and being really consistent. But then I was hit with head cold myself last Friday and I haven't been there in a week.

If I were to do anything, maybe it would be Leslie or Jenny Ford walk, or some stretching. But that would be it, I haven't felt like doing anything, so I haven't.

Hope you both feel better soon. Head colds are no fun.

I’m nursing a head cold this week too. When I exercise with a cold, I set myself back. So no workouts this week.
