Feeling the onset of a potential cold? Remember to stay healthy and stay active. Instead of fully cutting out your workouts, just ease them up for a few days until you are feeling back. These are a few ways you can lighten your load when you aren’t feeling a hundred percent.
· Cardio: Cut your distance in half, or keep your target distance but slow your pace significantly
· Classes: Use a lighter weight than normal or opt for the easiest option on exercise variations
· Lifting: Drop your weight and your reps down
If these seem like too much, take the time to stretch or do simple yoga.
And don’t forget extra sleep, water and vitamins!
