If I feel like I have the energy, is it ok to work-out/lift while I have a cold? Or should I just rest until I'm completely better? I just feel like a lump lying around here ;)

Wait till your feeling better. If you train at the gym others wouldn't want your germs. Don't forget the vitamins all the time. Hope you feel better soon.

Go for a long walk but don't push your body too hard. It needs rest to recover. Good luck!

A cold will not effect a good work-out, if you feel you can get a work-out, then go for it.
