Weights Room | How to exercise when ill

So I'm still ill =( and this cold is making it impossible to breath so hard cardio isn't a choice at the moment.
I thought I would give you an insight into how I exercise when I'm ill.

I always like to start any session with a cardio warm up as even using weights you need to get your HR up and kick in your metabolism a little.

Warm up: 7 mins cycling level 4 a gentle warm up, followed by 5 mins cross trainer, gets your legs and arms working, stretched and ready for lifting.

Main exercise:
1. I start with shoulder press as I find that the most difficult machine and every week I try increasing it by 2.5k but at the moment I'm only capable of lifting 10k. Set the weight so you can manage but the last rep is a real struggle! 10kg, 10 reps, 3 sets
the order afterwards depends on how many idiotic men sit on the machines doing nothing or talking and not exercising; you want to chat go to a coffee shop and get off my machines!
2. Chest press. Again every week I try to up it but by 5k. 25k, 10 reps, 4 sets
I visited the chest press again and tried 27.5k as I couldn't get to my multi tool bicep/tricep machine
3. Leg extensions. 30k, 10 reps, 4 sets
4. Squats with exercise ball. 9 squats tenth hold for 10 seconds, 4 times
5. Sitting on your exercise ball to balance bicep curls and tricep extensions. 2k (3 for curls when available) 10 reps, 5 sets
6. Leg press. After doing the squats I wasn't sure what my legs would hold so I started at 30k, 15 reps then each set increased 10k up to 80k - next week I'll try 90k

Cool down: Reclining bike 5km level 4. Then importantly STRETCH that's how to avoid DOMS - that pain after exercising.

Don't let illness ruin your workouts this winter
For those in my area after trying out other gyms I'm very happy to use the weights room and cardio at Loughton gym, part of the Everyone active gyms with great online extras, tips and workout plans

Excuses

When you stop finding excuses you find your answers. The motto of weight trainers.

We fin so many excuses everyday for why we can't do something, but most of them are made up and stand in our way. Fighting through the excuses is a measure of strength unlike any other. 

Today I woke up not quite able to breathe properly and the air tasted stale (I have a cold) and I was tempted to tell myself I can't go but then I reasoned with myself. I can't breathe so I'll avoid the cardio that'll labour my breath, but I can still lift to my hearts desire. 

I'm planning to spend my whole time in the weights room. Do my squats, bicep curl on exercise ball, over head tricep on balance ball,   Shoulder/chest/leg presses, front row leg extensions and curls and my rope machine. 

I'll be able to get a good work out and everything even though I was thinking of not going, plus I can try light activity on cardio see how I do and still get a cardio workout too!!! 

What excuses have you got to drop?
