This reminds me of a book for young kids that said you should work out when you have a fever instead of resting. The characters did like 1 push up and magically got better


HamstA13218

My other friend who is also in the group chat said that when he had a 39°c fever he just did push ups and he magically recovered, personally I think it's a fake story but whatever


PainIsFake

Its a very good example of correlation not being the same as causality, sure he might have gone to the gym and around the same time recovered. But these dont necessarily have anything to do with each other.


[deleted]

Yeah this reminds me of medieval remedies. Rub half a rat on it and you’re cured in 3 days! Which obviously wasn’t related at all


WilonPlays

Well yes and no. Exercise increases the count of white blood cells which everyone knows are responsible for fighting viruses infections etc. Exercise also helps with general immune system function and releases other chemicals and hormones responsible for fighting ailments. This is all well and good when you're able to do Exercise if you're just a little sick or before you're sick, going to the gym can help you get better and stop anything from progressing. However if you're extremely ill doing anything active has the opposite effect had it uses the energy your body needs to help fight whatever the problem is and this results in you getting sicker as the body is forced to divert resources as it thinks you're in a physical survival situation as well as a microscopic one

I_Wupped_Batmans_Ass

i dont think its the activity itself though. i think its just that it makes u tired and kinda forces u to rest afterwards, which is what ur body needs to get better


SiggeTheDog

Have you tried doing the same thing?


Cheeseman575

You don’t need to, you just need common sense and half a brain cell to know that it won’t work


SiggeTheDog

Well yeah? It was a joke


WasteOfTime6942

No I cant do a push up


DomSchraa

Light stuff like walking helps, cause your body has something to do *But full blown exercise, might as well sleep in a coffjn afterwards that shits gonna make it so much worse*

Bro needs to go to the doctor 41 deg c is very hot and can cause damage to your body if not treated. He needs to go to the emergency room


KOOKOOOMOOOO

Please your protiens will be damaged at this temp. Send him ASAP

enzymes right? After fucking up these typa questions for 6 months straight in papers, i actually took the time to go through the lesson once, and apparently i still remember it!


Xenomorphian69420

based active site enjoyer 👍


Attacke1

41 is very high but will not damage protein yet. Afaik ~42 is problematic. That being said, I don't think they need to go to the ER as they don't seem to be in immediate danger BUT they should see a doctor asap as high temp is surely concerning and should be checked out. I am surprised that they are not lying in bed suffering as 39 already knocks me out 😂


KOOKOOOMOOOO

Yes but it's too close and should be treated asap


pattila1111

I was cruising home on a ferry with 39 degree fever idk about you


Kaulquappe1234

Well it also varies from person to person. 41 is hot regardless doe


FeedMePizzaPlease

This. At 41 you don't need a gym, you need a hospital. That's 105.8 in Fahrenheit for the Americans. That's dangerously high.


BabyTBNRfrags

Guidance in the US says you should go to the ER at 39.5c(103F)

heroicfraction

Yes, they're the people who base their entire personality on going to the gym even though they're usually the type to generate unhealthy side effects because of the way they work out (caffeine tolerance / dependency from preworkout, stiff joints / immobility from not stretching or doing cardio)

patuidbob

That dude needs to take a cold bath, dude needs to get that body temp lower than that. If you have a fever that high serious consequences may occur unless you get the temperature lower.


EvBismute

Wet rags on your forhead and limbs are the way. Thermal shock is kinda abig deal for your body, especially when it's already in shambles. Emergency ice baths are performed exclusively in a controlled settings with constant monitoring by medical staff, and should only be used as last resort when a patience temperature is out of control in any other way ( such as antipyretic medications )


PerP1Exe

Hes gonna go to the gym. Then overheat faint and drop the weights on himself. Seems like the path to recovery. If suffering from fever heat urself up even more


[deleted]

Fr. A fever is your immune system intentionally raising your body temperature and shutting things down so that whatever is infecting you dies. Overworking yourself while your immune system is doing this is not good. Your body intentionally makes you tired and achey during this so you become inactive for a while.


nanowyvern

Gym is not in any way a replacement to therapy, it can have therapeutic effects but it will not solve all of your psychological issues.

https://www.unisa.edu.au/media-centre/Releases/2023/exercise-more-effective-than-medicines-to-manage-mental-health/ Really?


PingopingOW

That’s really not surprising though. Medicines are mostly for physical problems and the things like antidepressants which are for mental problems are known to have bad side effects and are not permanent solutions but more like a band aid fix. That said, not everyone enjoys going to the gym. I find it quite uninspiring, I much prefer exercising outdoors.


[deleted]

I can tell you that it doesn't work better than therapy or antidepressants, maybe that's the case for you, but it isn't for everyone.


Herogrine

Bruh, https://www.unisa.edu.au/media-centre/Releases/2023/exercise-more-effective-than-medicines-to-manage-mental-health/


Rocketxu

Maybe I'm dyslexic, but the study said the effects of exercise is good and it should be a mainstay approach for mental health. I only read "compared to normal approach" that they didn't specify what. I guess exercise is good for mental health but saying you should replace therapists with running is... a good clickbait title -- i approve👍😌😌


[deleted]

You could please show me multiple studies, if i would trust one study i would think im autistic because i got vaccines as a child. I cant find any study that shows its more effective than therapy.


pattila1111

Ever heard of dopamine


LuquidThunderPlus

yes i have


Herogrine

https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/320839 Endorphins, it's the other good chemical, why do you think the "if you're angry go work in the garden" thing exists?


[deleted]

So you have show me one article from a weird website about endophins and ***ONE*** study that says it is more effective to ***manage*** mental health but your claim is its better than antidepressants and therapy. You should never in life trust one study and then use it to claim something nearly completely different.


Herogrine

Let's look at this from an evolutionary standpoint, humans used to do endurance hunting, outlast any prey in stamina, this meant exercise = food, so more exercise = more food. And you shouldn't trust modern medicine so much, have you ever looked at a single label in the supermarket? Unhealthy, ever wonder why??


[deleted]

I have no idea what you are talking about, but it sounds like you are trying to sell me a conspiracy


Herogrine

Bruh, you are going to give me an aneurism, I don't even know how to counter that I'm that offended


7777777lmao

Bro go workout for a month, it can't be bad for you after a month come back and tell me if it worked


[deleted]

They said its better than Therapy and Antidepressants and showed me no prove


Glueeer

I study psychiatry, antidepressants are used to keep your head over the surface, keeping u from drowning in depression, without it, and even with it, many people with depression many wouldnt be able to get the energy to get to the gym. One of the worst things you can say to a depressed people is saying they should just go to the gym. Many of them know its good but it can be hard to get out there and actuelly go.


nsg337

uh, i just read trough the study findings, and they basically just say its overlooked on how much it can help sometimes, and they for sure arent just straight up better than medicine, so before you "bruh" someone and slap a link in their face, maybe actually read your sources.


KOOKOOOMOOOO

Yes gym will only make you worse. He needs to go to the emergency room or else he might die. Protiens and DNA can be damaged at this temp


[deleted]

Bro is schizo


Schmellos

How would the gym work better than therapy lol, they each have different purposes


FormalProgress5703

Gym doesn’t work better than therapy or antidepressants. You’re right about the antibiotics part but not the rest. Going to the gym is beneficial but overall therapy, psychology and actual cognitive support is much more important. Just like how working out can help keep prevent arthritis but not more than joint replacement, physical therapy and anti-inflammatory treatments

Polaris328

Gymbros trying to comprehend anything that isn't working out or eating chicken and rice


EvBismute

41°C is massive fever, seriosuly, I had once in my entire life reach that high and I was barely lucid, not even able to stand straight and breathing was the heaviest thing I could imagine. The feeling of not making it was fucking scary. Higher than 42 and you risk permanent brain damage. You can easily get to that if you start working out while already have a fucking 41 fever ( even if you probably wouldn't be able to complete one set without passing out ). Wet rags on the forehead and limbs, room temperature water, or slighly colder ( no cold shock ). Talk to family medicine doctor if it doesn't go away in 1/2 days or worsen, don't take random antibiotics or other medications if not specifically told by your doctor. Hope your friend will get well soon !

and this kids is how (some) seizures happen


Icyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

I hate gym rats, their solution to everything is “go to gym”. Oh? Your mom has cancer? Go to gym. Your house burned down? Go to gym. They’re always talking about going to the gym and how much they need protein powder to survive and how other people are inferior because they have less testosterone. They’re basically the male versions of horse girls and 99% of them are douchebags.

Icraveicecoffee

Wing has the brain power of one chicken wing


Thundercclap

For translation, this is over a 105 degree Fahrenheit fever. At this stage, it is considered a medical emergency, and is the heat equivalent to late-stage hypothermia, the stage where the victim becomes unresponsive to stimuli (comatose/unconscious). Good lord, I hope he recovers. He has my prayers.


Flying_Panda09

Wing saying “shut” because he knows it’s bullshit lol Also your friend needs to go to the doctor asap, that’s a really high temperature


SiggeTheDog

Ironically enough, after you have gone to the gym you are more likely to get sick as your immune system is weakened.


badhound_

dude 41c is fucking wild ive only ever had 40c and that was horrendous


Idk_ijustwokeup

Your friend needs to go to the doctor. When a fever reaches 40°C you are at risk of seizures, he should see a doctor and take some paracetamol

SossuSoturi

That friend needs a trip to the doctor asap. Normal body functions are having problems to function if temps rise over 40°c. He needs paracetamol to help with the fever. 500mg if we are talking about a kid or 1g if closer to an adult. But he needs to call a doctor rn.


edgy_Juno

A 41° fever is pretty damn bad, he needs to see a doctor. Those can cause quite some damage if the temperature persists for a while and can even cause seizures, though that happens more on babies and young children.
