Shakeweight... most useless piece of equipment ever. They show commercials of really ripped guys using it, but that's not how they obtained those physiques. They do that to trick you into buying it.

You're better off spending the money you would on that for a gym membership, so you can have access to actual equipment.

Shake Weight for dem forearms.

But if you're a guy, you have other ways of reproducing that same motion...with added benefits.

Forearm training, do deadlifts without straps.

But... that can also work if you're "able".

Yeah.

I'm sick now, woke up a little bit ago with a bad cough, slight fever, and stomach pains. Asking Jason for advice on this, if I should train through it or take a break until I feel better. Hope he replies.

Got a reply:
Happy holidays to you also. Honestly if you are that sick and have a fever I say take a session off, eat at maintence and get some rest. No point further compromising your immunte system with sessions that are going to be too weak to stimulate growth but can potentially keep you out of the gym longer. Get some rest.

Been taking some medicine now, should feel better within a few days.

Who would actually exercise if they're sick?
