I have a sinus cold. other than a little coughing i feel great. but im worried that other people might not appriciate me showing up and "spreading my germs". Even though i wipe down every machine i use after im done. So the question remains. Do i go the the gym or not? Your thoughts?

    I'd probably skip. No sense in risking getting others infected, plus a little rest can help you get over the cold faster.

    I'd be pretty displeased if I caught your cold. Go for a walk or jog if you're up to it, but stay out of the gym. It's a cesspool of sweat and bacteria as it is.
