Subject: Recent flu and training volume
I'm just getting over the flu after four days of feeling like death. No fever for close to two days; 24 hours was the point where the doc said I could rejoin the world. Problem is, I still have a lingering cough and I am still feeling a big energy suck. I don't wanna do ANYTHING. I just want to lie on the couch and watch tv, which is the opposite of normal for me. I don't want to lose fitness if I'm well enough to train (I know the "above the neck" rule) but I don't want to overdo it and prolong this crap. Any words of wisdom regarding how much or little to train and how long the suckfest will last?

You're only as good as you can recover. Wait until you're whole again. Your fitness isn't going anywhere.
