The FLU = Forced Rest
Well unfortunately for me I got the flu last Tuesday and was down for the count for 4-days straight from the gym and my healthy diet. Which I later came to find out even if I had gotten the flu shot. I still would have contracted this version of the flu I got and still would have got sick since the flu vaccine they were given out here in Houston did have the antibodies for the version that has infected Houston right now. Someone does not know how to do their research.
But on the lighter note it gave my body the time off it really “REALLY” needed for almost the last 6 months straight of hard core training and heavy dieting HELL I have put it through.
I am not 100% percent yet, and I actually gain about 3-4 pounds of fat just in 4 days of lack of training and a diet of ice cream and soup, but already as of Saturday I was back in the GYM, hit legs and really feeling the muscles pump from the lack of blood flow from bed rest. In the end I would have rather not used all my sick days for the flu and would have rather not even got the damn thing, but it actually was over all very beneficial!
THANKS FLU MY BODY REALLY ENJOYED THE REST AND RECOVERY!
