    Typically I don't... When I begin my morning work out I am still asleep... I get up start the coffee work out drink the coffee, get ready for work and finally as I after I drink that last drop of coffee I brush my teeth before walking out the door. But honestly, even when I was leaving the house to work out, I still did it as I got ready for work not before my workout.

    I brush as soon as i wake up
    after eating breakfast
    after eating lunch
    and after dinner
    and before i go to bed
    and of course before any sexy time occurs :)
    Brushing too often is bad for your gums :c
    Yep and you can actually strip the enamel off your teeth if you brush too much too.

    After having braces for three years i got into the habit of brushing my teeth after every meal just to make sure nothing was stuck to my braces

    Pssh. I get my pre-workout snack and drink in and then I'm out that door. Fellow gym goers are lucky I'm even fully dressed!

    The people that are brushing every time before "sexy time" have obviously never had spontaneous sex before. Shame for you guys :(.

    Haha, I don't think I'd stop and ask the guy to wait so I could go brush my teeth.

    Yeah, my boyfriend would think I was a complete moron if I stopped him in his tracks and said I'd have to go brush my teeth instead of having some spontaneous sex that he's offering to me on a plate hahaha.

    I ALWAYS brush before I go workout! Even if I go on a run by myself! What if something happens and you have to have mouth to mouth. You gotta be prepared people! :wink:

    We have rebreathers to make sure that doesn't happen. Also, why would anyone leave home without a pocket mask? It's almost as important as making sure the condom is still safely tucked away in your wallet haha

    Makes me wonder if you were "that guy" next to me on the treadmill the other day. His breath just about knocked me over . He also had awful BO.

    Oh gosh no, that would never have been me.

    I don't use the treadmill.

    hahahahahahahaha

    I brush. I don't like the way my mouth feels if I haven't brushed. ...sticky, you know?

    I am an early bird and DBF is a sleepyhead. I always wake up way before he does and run to the bathroom to wee and to brush my teeth. Then I crawl back into bed (he sleeps like the dead, so no fear of waking him) and wait for him to wake up. Then, when he's all ready to go, I have nice fresh toothies.

    Are you that much of a self-centered *kitten* that you'll let everyone else smell your morning breath instead of taking a few more minutes out of your morning to brush your teeth???

    I know I am.
    Lol, being a trainer, and doing both in the morning and evening slots, I've had my fair share of morning breath, and just plain bad breath from clients over the years. In most cases, I just take it in. No need for me to let them know their breath stanks!!! If I become closer friends with them, then I'll probably say something.
