Why do I get sick?

[shazzaman]

It seems to be whenever I start to lift and what not, I always seem to get sick really easy! What am I doing wrong? What could I eat to help me out?

Gyms are usually pretty dirsty and plus your in a confined area with other people who may be sick also. they are touching the weights that you are touching and rubbing your eyes and itching your nose. Thats how germs are spread

Before you get sick are you tired and rundown? Are you eating adequately? And that includes fruit and veggies.

I think that may be what I have, but I have found some other articuls on this and I think I'm just over training.

Definitely wash your hands and shower when you leave the gym. You ever smelled your hands after touching free weights at a public gym? Its ****ing gross.

Vitamin C
you getting enough?
Also, before and after you lift, you need a healthy immune system to endure the stress,so if your diet is all out of whack, you will be more vulnerable to pick up the odd strain of a flu/cold.

It's your diet. Beside a well-balanced diet, including drinking lots of water, you should take vitamins. Cold-eeze lozenges are good when you get a cold. They work well.
