How to navigate your fitness journey when you are SICK! Plus my new segment: REPORT!
I hope you enjoy today's episode and remember these tips next time you aren't feeling too hot!
SUMMARY:
What happens if you get sick while you’re on a fitness journey?
Segments: REPORT
Reading - pre and post partum course reading and bible
Eating - cashew butter
Playing - excuse me it looks like you love me
Obsessing - my new amazon chair
Recommending - unfollowing spree
Treating - I want to get my nails done this week - mirror nails
If you are sick and contagious avoid public gyms
If you are sick below the neck its time for a rest day
If you are sick above the neck you have to make your own judgement call and you learn that by just trying and making adjustments
Going to the gym to keep the habit up and walking and stretching or doing light cardio is a more proactive way to decide if you are too sick to actually lift weights
Your body also need calories to recover
Up to 3 weeks of not training is unlikely to negatively impact your muscle mass over the long term so dont worry about losing progress
Any apparent loss size could be due to lowered carbs glycogen or water
Take the time to rest but you don’t have to just sit and watch tv you can be active in other areas:
Make a meal plan for the next month for yourself
Make a list of new recipes you want to try
Make a weight chart on excel where you can keep track of your progressive overload
Make a vision board
Create a notion account and get things organized
