How about going to the gym with a slight cold?
Every time the temperature changes or the flu season breaks out, it is normal to catch a cold and have a fever. Sometimes it's fine, but sometimes it lasts a week or more-sorry, bodybuilders catch a cold.

Then the problem is coming. Can I still go to the gym if I have a cold?

Note that what I said here is not "should" but "can", which means that I just make a small suggestion here, and it's up to you to decide whether to go or not. I don't like telling anyone that they should or shouldn't do anything.

Generally speaking, if the symptoms of your cold are headache, a little stuffy nose, or a runny nose, you can take the risk of training for a while. But as we said above, it's up to you whether to go or not.

But I still want to advise you to have a good rest in this situation. Because when you are sick, you force yourself to go to the gym, which is a very bad habit, which means you can force yourself to go when any physical condition appears. Then it goes against the original intention of our fitness.

Strangely, some people do moderate and light intensity training in this situation, and even feel better after walking out of the gym. Although this will happen, I still advise you not to try.

Another cold symptom is sore throat and poor chest breathing (respiratory infection). At this time, you should try to stay away from the gym and have a good rest. Because in this case, your immunity is very fragile. If you insist on walking into the gym, two things will happen: first, your symptoms will get worse; Second, you will infect others with your symptoms.

Generally speaking, the ventilation environment in the gym is not very good, so it is very unfavorable for colds.

If you are worried that not going to the gym for a week will slow down your training pace, don't worry too much, because a week won't hinder any of your plans, but during the break, you may have some further understanding of the relationship between fitness and health.

You will feel a little wordy when you say so much, but I think health preservation is a moderate state, not an indomitable practice. You must listen to your own body.
