It occurred to me the other day after catching a bit of a nasty cold from dog knows where that I spend at least four to six hours a week deliberately and aggressively rubbing/breathing/trading excretions with as many people as possible.

Logic would suggest that I should get sick noticeably more than the other un-grapply people around me.

But I have to say it does not seem to be the case, and even among my training partners I can not remember 1 instance of someone saying "ah fuck there is another cold spreading around the gym" (the odd skin infection notwithstanding)

Curious what other people's experiences have been, it seems odd to me but of course I might be biased, ignorant or some combo in my own observations
