maybe you should buy some opti men
this is the best cure to prevent long term flu/cold
No, do not go to the gym. Rest it out, recover and get past the flu.
No dont do it you will just **** yourself in the long run...stay home drink tea get some sleep and when you are feel go and lift some heavy ass weights
Lol **** no. Wait till you get better and dont have any highly noticable symptoms, then start off really easy on the workout. Works for me. I had a great workout with my light pneumonia yesterday, hue hue hue.s
No, you won't work out efficiently and you'll get others sick unless you work out home

Just rest and get better bro! If you go to the gym now, you will just make the illness worse thus having to take even more time off.
**** No! Just get some rest and drink some tea with raw honey if you have some.
As everybody else said rest the flu out. I went to lift when i had the flu.. felt so much better for 2 hours. then chit hit the fan.
Stay away from the gym till you feel better, you'll only end up feeling worse. Also it would be a dick move to go and end up getting others sick.

As most other people have said stay away from the gym till you recover because iv tried going to gym with cold/flu and it only makes it worse and you feel worse if you don't have a good session because of feeling ill therefore having less energy to recover from the flu
You are a total dick hole if you go to the gym with the flu. You are going to spread it and get other people sick. I hate people who go to the gym sick.
Is this a joke, bro you have the flu keep ur sick ass home, don't nobody want to catch that **** and ur gains aren't gonna go anywhere, you won't lose anything. I've taken weeks off and came back better.
Good rule of thumb is if you're sick below the neck DON'T workout. If it's just a stuffy nose or a sore throat, technically you can but I still wouldn't recommend it. It's extremely inconsiderate to go to a a gym and spread your infection around. Even if you wipe stuff down you're still potentially spreading the virus and not even aware of it. A cough or a sneeze can send a virus up to 15 feet away from you and it's difficult to keep track of everything you touch or breathe on. Just stay home and don't be a dick.
Don't be a sickness spreading jackass.
Stay out of the gym or else you will regret it. I thought I could muscle through a slight cold last month. Hit the gym did some heavy lifting and ended up with a full blown flue for a month straight. Plus you're not going to be in top condition so you'll only end up being disappointed by your lifts. I'm a powerlifter and strength goes down much faster than muscle mass. Taking 2 weeks off made my lifts go down 20lbs. It's a whole lot better than having to take a full month off because you were too stubborn to stop lifting.
Bodybuilding like powerlifting is a marathon not a sprint. If all you're worried about is today you'll totally ruin your body and miss out on tomorrow.

This, all you would do is get other people sick.... don't do it man.
Active rest will speed up recovery time.
Stay on your feet, move about. Drink plenty of water and OJ for dat dere vit-C.
