 The next question is from the Murphy motive. How do you know if you're too sick to work out? What symptoms and how severe must they be to know that you shouldn't work out? Good rule of thumb is obviously if you have a fever don't work out anytime you run a temperature. Don't do any exercise exercise temporarily Depresses or suppresses the immune system and you can actually kick an illness into high gear I've done this many times myself where I'm definitely sick and then I go in the gym stubborn stubbornly Take some caffeine push through a workout and I got way sicker the day after Here's the other rule of thumb that I say if you're feeling kind of not good. You don't have a temperature Do things in the gym or at home that are making you feel better? So that might look like a walk outside. Yeah stretching stretching sauna. Mm-hmm. Yeah I'm so I don't do that anymore like if I at all feel even under the weather. I'm not trained You just learned your lesson so yeah, exactly because there's been many times where I'm like am I getting sick? I don't feel great, but I think I'm fine. I'm gonna go training because I'm I'm in a rhythm, right? I'm in a rhythm with my training. I don't want to miss it, you know And so I go and I would say more often than not I go in I train and then I get really sick after worse symptoms As a result training and the way I look at it is, you know If if I I don't get sick that often so it's very rare And if that happens in the middle of me being consistent, and I'm feeling under the weather Honestly, what I do now and sell you're the one that's that got me using the it's elderberry I know I always mess with it. Yeah, the elderberry the zinc in the in the vitamin C Like I start to and hit in the green juice with organifa I start pounding that drinking tons of water I stay home for a couple days and what I have found trying to do things like that I end up either getting a very mild cold if one if one at all or end up beating it two or three days I'm back to training hard again. It almost seems these days even now, you know Like how conscious you have to be about like any kind of symptoms or anything. Just stay home, you know Like let's keep these gyms open if we can but yeah It's just you got you got to go through it to really realize it You're not getting a whole lot of benefit by just pushing through it Just doesn't it doesn't take you, you know through whatever plateau you think you're gonna have well one Did you just have to look at the risk versus reward one to two workouts being missed is not gonna lose a bunch of gains You know, are you gonna make a bunch of gains from one or two workouts? But what could really set you back is getting so sick you feel miserable You don't want to walk in the gym for a week and your diet's off and everything that could set you back I can't tell you how many times I've done that and me too Well, I'll like I'd get no rest because maybe I'm on a trip or something and I get home and I'm exhausted But I'm supposed to work out like I feel like I'm kind of getting sick and I haven't got gotten good sleep You know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna, you know, take a pre-workout and go hit you anyway And then the next day I'm like done. I'm fucked and I'm sick for a week I hear people tell me all the time they would go in the steam room or sauna to try and sweat it out Well sauna's got some benefit potentially now problem is if you have a bad fever and you go in the sauna But the sauna itself steamy kind of it kind of it's almost like it give your body a fake Artificial fever. Yeah, and it can actually boost your immune system But you have to use it pretty intelligently if you're super sick, don't go in there. It makes you so pass out
