please take a shower before coming in da gym..ugghh!!

lol..i see there are some nasty people here..smh..i work out..sweat like hell..and dont smell anything but my degree deodorant..washing up before working out really keeps down the odor unless ur jus a funky person..

There are plenty of people who get smelly when they sweat profusely regardless of deodorant usage. It's a genetic thing. Are you saying everyone with less than stellar sweat genetics is "funky"?

Also, do you put deodorant everywhere? Most people sweat in more places than their armpits.

Yup.
Now, if someone walked into a tea cottage smelling like that, then I'd understand the complaint.

no i dont put deodorant everywhere..its called soap and water..lol..ladies and gents..if uv been wearing the same panties are boxers all day and then go in a gym to sweat..whatever smell that have accumulated down there will create an funky aroma thats NOT pleasant to others..lol...this ish is trippin me out..the world is full of funksters!!

Panties are boxers? Why did no one tell me this before! I thought they were different.

That makes no sense. I mean, you're going to stink shortly anyway. I guess i understand if a certain area is what you were smelling but otherwise, you're being a little too judgmental there. If you're not sweaty after a workout, you're doing something wrong. I never really notice the smells until i step outside the gym/workout room. Then i realize that we all stink.

Whats wrong w/soap and water...hell no I'm washing up before AND after!

It's going to get sweaty down there regardless of whether or not you shower before going to the gym. The pubic area is one of the most active regions of perspiration due to it's high content of sweat glands..

You should smell my feet right now.

Mine too.

Of course they stink, they are at the gym working out! Who the hell showers BEFORE working out?

i do..lol.. :laugh:

I was raised to conserve water. There are too many people in the world who go without it for me to waste it by taking a shower only to avoid offending your delicate sensibilities. I don't run the water when I brush my teeth and I am certainly not going to shower 3 times a day because I sweat at the ****ing gym.

Let's not be silly, here.

I'm so happy for your inability ever smell bad. What's it like being perfect? Based on your responses, it sounds pretty easy to get judgmental up on your pedestal.

If you still smell like roses afterwards........you're probably doing it wrong.

I find it much worse to be pushing myself in the gym, breathing hard, and my lungs get bombarded with what smells like a whole can of AXE body spray or perfume!!!

my gym stinks and I stink with it. I shower when I'm funky but my desk job does not generate a sweaty environment in the crotchal region.

ROFLMAO @ ^^^^^^

Last week, I unkowingly stepped in dog crap before I went into the gym. We were all sniffing around, trying to figure out where the crap smell was coming from. After an hour, I sat down and got a big whiff. It was on my shoe. I wish people would clean up after their pets better.

Well excuse me lady but I DON'T SMELL LIKE HELL EVEN IF I'M SWEATING OUT! Stop making assumptions that everyone who are sweating their butts out would have that body odor!!! We're sweating out because we are working out HARD in the gym & those who are still smelling like roses are probably those silly ones who are busy chatting with their friends or reading magazines while wasting their time away on the treadmill or elliptical.

:huh:

I never get these threads. Complaining about one particularly stinky person at the gym, ok, I can see that. But calling the rest of us "funky" because we don't shower BEFORE working out? :noway: Come on. Like someone else on here posted, I grew up in a home (and a state) where we conserved water. Except for an early morning race where a shower will wake me up before I run, I don't see the point of showering before I'm going to go work out really hard. I shower in the morning before work (sometimes the night before. GASP!) and apply deodorant...sometimes I reapply deodorant before hitting the gym. I work my a$% off at the gym. Then I take a quick shower and hit the hot tub. THEN I take a real shower. With soap, even. I guess if someone has a problem with me they'll be posting about it on MFP? haha

I know, right?

technically sweat does not have any odor. It is the bacteria that latches on to it that stinks. If you work out, you earn that stink. If you can't handle it, a gym may not be the place for you or go at a less busy time. I have an issue with smells so I go during the non busy time if possible. Air freshener is way worse though.
