well i just came back from the doc today and he said i caught MRSA from the dirty bastards in my gym and says i cant workout or even lift anything heavy until its gone. im on an antibiotic at the moment and he wants to drain my arm in a couple days :\.....what would u guys do? sit home and rest for possibly 2 weeks without working out or cover up the sh*t in bandages wear a long sleeve sweatshirt and hit the weights? as much as i would love the second option everyones telling me to suck it up and just workout harder when its better

WTF is MSRA

is this like a staff infection? that's pretty common in my gym

its a staph infection that starts out looking like a little spider bite and if left untreated could spread to anywhere on your body and possibly kill u.....u get it from touching infected things like benches, spray towels basically anything he said me having a little keratosis polaris from hereditary made it easy for my skin to be in contact with it.

One time i caught VD in DC

Stay the fuck out of the gym. Keep your calories up and your losses will be minimal.

Def take the time off to recover. you're not going to shrivel up and lose all your gains in 2 weeks

ive actually been sick for the past 10 + days or so with fevers and bronchitis. i havent been eating much and i havent been able to train the whole time, its depressing. but ive noticeably been getting leaner. i dont think ive lost any muscle but im also on test so maybe thats why....

You need to stay out of the gym.

"see more doctors" - azfittrainer

Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA ) cure involves several antibiotics we see it at work alot people from nursing homes. stay away from gym for not do not want to pass to others.

just go "on" cycle bra

Good luck bro, MRSA is no joke.

well they drained the infection today and covered it up the doc said if i rest and take my antibiotics i could be in the gym in as little as 4-5 days from now. He said i gotta be careful though cause i told him that not one person in my gym washes there hands in the restroom .....ill probably never wear short sleeves or shorts in the gym again i dont care if they think im nuts during 100 degree weather

I thought that shit was pretty much a death sentence.

Just put some Windex on it.

my buddy had a huge ass staff infection on his leg from our gym....surprized i havent caught it by now.
