hey /fit/, I've been on top of my diet and exercising 5 days a week for the last year. Recently I was told that due to my illness, I should not be exercising for at least a couple of weeks, and my appetite is virtually non-existent. How do I lose minimal gains during my downtime?

Eat enough protein and calories focus on recovering asap don't do stupid shit that will set you back.
I have been lifting for 2 solid years slipped a disc training hard for a powerlifting competition so had to take 4 months off squat and deadlift when I went back to it I only lost 10% of my strength (squatted 185 kg in comp)

Normies think these twink fags are on steroids just because they have highly visible abs. My cut continues.

minimize loss by minimizing the length of your illness. make sure you get enough rest and fluids. what do you have? most bad colds have me feeling weak for a couple of days and maybe a cough will linger for weeks but I can work out with a cough. A doctor told you not to exercise? Is it the medication or something?

i had a cold a couple months ago and found it easy to keep eating 3000 calories a day but then i got a fever/cold and couldnt eat shit, during a cut so i guess dont force yourself to eat and deal with losing a tiny amount of gains(you probably wont lose anything once your appetite comes back in a couple days

It's a defensie mechanism. As long as they don't have it they badmouth it to feel better about themselves.
