Keeping with it can be even tougher. When pesky colds and flus come around and throw a wrench in all your hard work, it can feel like a huge setback and major disappointment. You don\u2019t necessarily have to call it quits when you come down with a sniffle or a cough. It may be enough to take it easy.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how to know what to do, what not to do, and when opting for a nap is the best way to go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prevention is Better Than Cure <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you can avoid getting sick, that\u2019s the best way to go. It\u2019s impossible to avoid catching a nasty bug from time to time, but moderate, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/cold-and-flu\/features\/exercising-when-sick#2\">regular exercise can increase your body\u2019s immunity<\/a> and help fight off illnesses. Engaging in 30-minute exercises three to four times a week builds higher levels of T cells, which help fight infection.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, studies have shown that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/cold-and-flu\/features\/exercising-when-sick#2\">longer, more intense workouts<\/a> (think 90 minutes) can actually lead to a decline in immune health. Moderate, medium-length exercise is your best bet for getting through flu season without a big fight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do a Neck Check <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a simple way to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/cold-and-flu\/features\/exercising-when-sick#1\">determine if you\u2019re fit for fitness<\/a> or should place your workouts on hold. If you\u2019re experiencing symptoms above the neck, such as watery eyes, stuffy nose, sneezing, or a sore throat, you\u2019re okay to continue your workouts. However, if you feel body aches, coughing, chest congestion, fatigue, or fever, it\u2019s time to take it easy and rest until you\u2019re feeling better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fever? Take a Break <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you run a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/cold-and-flu\/features\/exercising-when-sick#1\">fever,<\/a> your body\u2019s temperature has already increased. When you exercise, you\u2019re increasing your body\u2019s temp even more, which can cause you to feel even worse and get much sicker. If you\u2019re running a fever, that\u2019s the sign it\u2019s time to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/cold-and-flu\/features\/exercising-when-sick#1\"> stop exercising<\/a> and switch from running and lifting to napping and resting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Know your Body <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As long as you don\u2019t have a fever or any symptoms below the neck, feel free to continue with your workout routines as usual\u2014if you can. Some people\u2019s bodies can handle more than others, so it\u2019s important to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/cold-and-flu\/features\/exercising-when-sick#2\">listen to yours and know your limits<\/a>. If you feel weak, tired, or are having trouble catching your breath, ease up on what you\u2019re doing, or take a couple days to rest and rebuild your strength.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure if you\u2019re up for exercise, but you want to try to maintain your schedule, talk to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hancockhealth.org\/ja\/2017\/08\/consult-doctor-beginning-exercise-program-just-disclaimer-good-advice\/\">\u3042\u306a\u305f\u306e\u533b\u8005<\/a> about what\u2019s best.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Never Mind \u201cGo Hard or Go Home\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When recovering from an illness, your body is going through a lot and trying to rebuild its strength. Don\u2019t try to run 10 miles after having the flu or do deadlifts after you\u2019ve been lifting tissue boxes for a week. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/working-out-while-sick#section4\">Ease back into your workouts.<\/a> It may be frustrating, but in the long term it\u2019s the best way to regain your momentum, strength, and endurance.<\/p>\n<p>Start back with shorter, lower-intensity workouts. You may feel like you\u2019re regressing, but in no time you\u2019ll be back to feeling like a powerhouse.<\/p>\n<p>This cold and flu season, make sure you monitor your body and listen to how you\u2019re feeling before forcing yourself to the gym. If you have a fever, call it quits for a while. And always remember you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hancockhealth.org\/ja\/find-a-doctor\/\">talk to a doctor<\/a> if you have any questions about how you\u2019re feeling.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Building a workout schedule can be tough.
