A member asked:

Does working out hard before a flu shot make the side effects worse? or should i wait to a non-work out day to get it.

Doesn't matter: Congratulations on being immunized, protecting both yourself and others around you. Side effects of influenza vaccine are uncommon. Many people have mild pain at the injection site for 2-3 days, but usually that's all. Working out is not likely to make any difference one way or the other.
