ive been seen for the last few days and I'm feeling weak, so I won't do my normal 2 miles on the treadmill. I'm thinking just the elliptical...should I eat anything that will help me get a little more strength or energy?

    If you're sick, please don't go to the gym. Not great for other people to get sick as well :/

    Also, you should probably just get better

    If you're sick please stay home. Your sweat and germs can linger on equipment for 30+ minutes after you leave. No sense in getting others sick.

    I'd suggest if its just cardio you want think about going for a walk outside or something like that
