I was sick the last 2 weeks and finally feeling better. I tried to stick to my good foods as much as I could and only continued working out if I felt good enough. I read that if you feel sick above the head (like a sinus cold etc..that's what I had) you can continue with your regular workouts which I did. I had a head cold and cough. Pushed through it. But if it's below the neck you need to rest and also if you have a fever. Listen to your body the best, nap and sleep when you can and get lots of vitamin C. I went out and bought V8 juice, now keep in mind I got rid of all juices in my diet etc, but I figured I'm sick, I need the vitamin C (which you can get in other forms, but I felt the more natural the better, don't like taking pills) The V8 juice is 100% vitamin C then I juiced my own oranges too. It really helped! Just do the best your body will allow, don't push yourself if you feel sick really, if you need to rest then rest. Good luck!
