Bad news, woke up with Covid this morning so out of the gym for a few days. As long as I can I’ll be training with TRX and bands while out. Hoping for a quick recovery and getting back to the grind before motivation wanes again.

@going2cycle well I don’t know about Chicken soup for the soul as I’m a pagan lol but I sure stocked up on a bunch chicken soup for the gut with my last grocery store run this morning before I get to down with this shit. As for vitamins I sure will, not taking N2guard right now as I’m just running TrT (don’t light me up) but I am taking most of the things in it plus elderberry and echinacea.

Thank you for sharing that, very interesting to me as an epidemiologist. It’s long been know that increased metabolism during colds helps to burn through it “faster” so caffeine makes sense for that as well as what the article was stating about antioxidants. Also another reason I never treat a fever unless it’s over 103°, the extra heat just helps so much.

Update: this hit quick the only thing I have been able to eat today is some jello. Everything else hurts too bad to swallow. Had about 200 cals is all today. Typically when I get Covid I’m down 5 days so hoping it won’t be too long before I can eat again and get back to training. Probably slept over 20 hours in the last 24 so I am getting good rest at least. Will continue to try and get some broth or chicken soup down me tomorrow.

If you can only do liquids, you have to force yourself to drink protein shakes and chicken broth at least, push yourself to do it or very hard to recover bro @Ravenson

Covid Update: 2nd full day being sick and I am down over 12 pounds and still can’t eat or swallow anything but jello and water. Everything else burns the crap out of my throat. The weight loss I’m a sure is mostly glycogen weight so I’ll get it back real quick but some fat loss is nice at least.

Diagnosed?

We've seen a bunch of members with flu like symptoms recently

 

[CEO]

bros 12 pounds is crazy. you losing a lot of mass

 

[ROIDDERS]

Unfortunately, sicknesses are part of the game.

You'll bounce back from this.

 

[chesty]

Seems like covid is bad this year. People need to be doing a better job of avoiding getting sick.

 

[Ulter]

The gym is a great place to catch a lot of different things.

This is why it's important to be careful.

 

[e2]

getting all that sleep. Will definitely help you get better.
