What do you do about exercise when you get sick? I usually slack off and have a hard time getting back to my normal schedule.

Oh, I haven’t been to such situation yes. However, the one probably should make some very simple exercises anyway to stay "in the form".

When I am sick I completely forget about exercise. If it is just a cold without fever or some cough I dont consider it to be sick, more than that it is get well and recover time for me. When the fever and runny nose are gone I start with cardio and slowly get back to the routine.

If I’m sick, I don’t exercise. You got to respect your body, and give it the proper rest for it to recover. But AS SOON AS I get better I get back to it. Probably because I already formed the habit.

I try to do small exercises even if it’s just a single one per day. Not as much to train but to keep the habit and have it easier to slowly ramp back up later.

I do what you do and feel fine about it. That’s the way to go - listen to your body, not your thoughts of what you should do.

I have found that taking a very easy light walk on the treadmill when I’m sick keeps the habit ingrained well allowing me some rest time

Do something light. But whatever you do don’t get caught in the cycle of laziness. I wouldn’t suggest going super hard, done it, and it didn’t end well. But even just getting up and going to sit on the bike and read something for 20 min keeps your mind on progression.

First and foremost, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Do all you can to not get sick. But if you do, it’s time to let discipline shine and pull yourself through it.

Take the time off they I need to heal and begin feeling better. When I’m sick, Rest, hydration, and healthy eating are more important than exercise.

I count stretching as exercise. Even just the lightest of stretching and yoga counts for me. At these times, the most important thing for me is to keep the habit going so that in the long run there is less friction towards working out.
