I can see both sides and I have done both.
I have trained when sick and *most* of the time it works out fine. Usually you wont' be up to your maximum performance but you can still move some weight around which is better then nothing.
On the other hand I have worked out when sick before and it does wear on your CNS and immune system. It broke my immune system down long enough for whatever it was to walk in and pretty much take control. Not fun.
So I would say if you've got a light head cold, go for it. You may want to keep it a touch on the lighter side. If you are aching and headache and whatnot then I would just leave it.
Just my 2 cents.
