Sore throat

[hello_kitty]

Guys,

I've got a mildly sore throat and what feels like swollen glands. I was planning to have a weight training session today. Is it ok to lift or shall I take it easy?

Rest, it can be dangerus to work out with a sore throth since it can lead to Myocarditis which is an inflammation of the heart muscle, not good. If you have a runny nose for example its no problem to work out but fever and/or sore throat=always rest it out.

hope you feel better soon

Thanks. I didn't go because I also felt dizzy.

best to lift weights if you have a clear throat :] thus better breath intake/outake
