Tips
Provide Details.
Please be as detailed as possible in your explanation. Don't worry about formatting! We'll take care of it. For example:
Don't say: Eat more fats.
Do say: Add fats with some nutritional value to the foods you already eat. Try olive oil, butter, avocado, and mayonnaise.

EditTips

  • If you are too sick to work out, then get plenty of rest and you may be working out the next day.
  • Drink plenty of fluids.
  • If you are sick eating some warm chicken soup might help.
  • If you are really sick but you still want to get your daily work out, then lifting tiny weights would probably be your best bet.

EditWarnings

  • Never over work yourself if you are sick. When you're sick your body needs rest to get better.
  • Never work out if you are tired because of possible injury.
