Damn Flu

[sprinter86]

Made it all the way through winter... as soon as it gets warm, what happens? Got the flu...feels like I been hit by a bus! and right in the middle of my cycle too. I can t believe it...already had 2 days off the gym and no sign of clearing. Anyway, enough of the rant... what do you guys do if you got a bad flu? keep working out or what?

Ps. I am sure the steroids make the body dedicate resources to building muscle and not to the immune system... probably a post somewhere if I was well enough to be interested...

Take the time off for you to get better and then hit the weights again.

I had that shit and lost 10 fucking pounds. Fucked up my whole workout routine. Go to the Dr. and get some Antibiotics so you can clear that shit out of your system. That shit has a Catabolic effect on your muscle gains and kills your appetite.

Get some Zythromax. It will knock that virus out of you in a couple of days.

BTW Zythromax is by script only.

Antibiotics dont do a thing for a viral infection. Just gonna have to sweat it out.

I have had a cold / flu / chest cold or what ever this crap is for 3 weeks. No anti-biotics. I have a virul infection not bacterial. Do not take antibiotics unless you have a bacterial infection such as bronchitus. The flu is viral. Lost of rest and fluids. I worked out Monday, bad idea. I am home sick again today...kind of a relaspe or my body forcing me to take it easy so it can fight this crud off. Good luck bro!

If you feel like shit, don't lift. I was recently sick mid-cycle - I took a week off, tapered the orals to maintanance levels, and tried to eat and get better. Your body will tell you when to lift again.

Good luck,
