[quote=Anonymous]I don’t workout if I have a fever, nausea/vomiting/diarrhea, or significant chest congestion. Those conditions correlate with when I tend to feel worst/weakest, so I have no desire to exert myself. I might try to take a walk just to get out of the house if I feel up to it, but that’s it. Otherwise, I’ll generally do lighter workouts. My primary exercise is Peloton, so I’ll take a lower intensity class if I feel under the weather. This makes returning to full-on exercise when I’m better much less onerous. For weight training, I’ll do bodyweight or light weight. When I had covid, I was very cautious about exercise because of the post-exertional malaise/long covid thing. For the first few days, I had a fever and significant congestion, so I didn’t do anything. Once the fever subsided, I started to take walks just to be outside. Once I tested negative, I got back on the bike but took low intensity classes for a week or so while I built up my stamina.[/quote]
