Don't Exercise If You're Sick

In these times of "swine flu" or H1N1 as it's come to be known, don't exercise if you're sick - please!

Chances are that if you're exercising while you're sick, you're going out in public and helping to spread whatever bug might have you down. Take time to get yourself better, but better yet, take time so you're not sharing germs with others and making them sick.

Going to a gym or working out with others creates way too great of an opportunity to spread germs. So, do yourself a favor - take care of yourself, rest and don't get others sick!

This article from http://www.cnn.com/ relates to staying home from work if you're ill, but the same principles apply to exercising while sick - http://tinurl.com/af77zb.
