Tip of the Day: Yesterday, I found myself under the weather; it was a 24 hour bug…it went as quickly as it came, but it was a rough 24 hours! I actually tried to push through and go to the gym, but ended up leaving a quarter of the way through my workout. Over the years I’ve struggled with whether to ignore illnesses and “sweat it out” or to lay low, allowing my body and immune system to recover. As cold-season approaches ((here in the States)), I thought it may be helpful to share my opinion on how to balance sickness with health and fitness!
When I begin noticing real symptoms, I strive to slow my roll: cancel plans with friends, nix the errands, and, yes, even skip my workout. All of that energy can then be put towards fighting off the bug inside us; physiologically, there is real evidence of this energy usage by the body, so, if possible, give your body all the rest and down time you can. During this time, I also focus on fluids… tea + lemon & water are my go-tos. When you feel as though you are improving, then I suggest hitting the gym to sweat it out. Overall, listen to your body because you know it best!
