2 weeks to go before my fight and I get sick. Anyone of you experienced this? If so what did you guys do? I really cant afford to miss training right now!
If you're too sick to train, then rest. Just consider yourself lucky you've got two weeks. Better to miss a couple days of training and get better than to push through it and still be sick when you fight two weeks later.
Just rest and get better. You're better off to get sick now then on fight day, as Danny Green and others have experienced.
I had the same thing: this saturday i have my fight, but past week i got a cold. I didn't want to miss any training, but i had no other option. I keept going to the gym, just do some work on the bag. very relaxed en not to intensive. Rest is the key element to get better!!!! Good luck man, and get better
well.. glad i'm not the only one.. i got a wicked sinus infection the other day.... fights in about 2 weeks I think i'm getting better tho
You're probably sick because you've been training really hard. When your put your body under stress you need to give it better fuel. L-Glutamine helps recovery, the immune system and helps protect the body at times of stress. Take plenty of anti-dioxidants - Vitamin C/E and Beta Caroteen. Also eat plenty of protein, 5 servings of protein spread throughout the day will help recovery. Take your training easy until you recover you don't want to leave your best fight in the gym
