If you have a cold maybe go for a short walk instead. Dont get down about not going to the gym while sick.
Just get back at it when you feel better.2 -
Don't go to the gym while ill, especially when there is a chance you are contagious. No one there wants to get ill too.
Take care of yourself, keep well hydrated, eat close to maintenance, get plenty of sleep/rest, and work out lightly if you really want to.

I'm also sick at home. I find yoga or Pilates makes me feel better whilst still getting my workout in.2

Yes please don't spread the cold. This is a good time for flexibility training or strength or just plain rest. Sickness must be respected as a time for recouping. Carrying on a workout plan with no sensitivity to this can make matters worse. You don't need to be on bed rest necessarily but respect your need for gentleness and other for not getting sick too.3

Please don't bring your cold germs to the gym. Tyvm.0
