Just wondering what you serious Masters/Fitness types do when you're a bit under the weather.
If you get a cold but no fever do you still go swim for a workout?
Are you better off just staying in bed or going for a walk?
Seems like a strenuous workout like swimming might actually be harmful.
Any thoughts?
As a general rule, I have read in many reliable publications that its safe to exercise when the ailment stays above the neck. Once its settled in the chest, though, you can make matters worse by doing intense cardiovascular work.
