working out while you are sick

ad

i woke up yesterday with a bad sore throat and a chest cold. (hard to breath) id like some opinions on how to handle it. should i skip the workouts for a couple days and concentrate and getting better or should i just do some light lifting or hit it as hard as if im not sick?

Hitting the gym whilst your ill will only delay your recovery

Plus as others have mention, we must be considerate towards our our gym bro's & sisters.

Stay home, keep warm and eat

I usually want to but don't for consideration to others. Just as I hope others don't workout around me when I'm healthy and they are sick.

I've always done at most light cardio....plus would you want some sick guy sweating up a bench/touching everything?
