All the time they are private and I don't worry about weirdos I know what and who I am and besides it's extra gross to leave and go any where after working up a sweat and how the hell can you put on other clothes funky,ewe:0

The first gym I went to, I would use the showers. I was usually there mid-day and had other things to do afterwards. The last gym--no. The clientele at that gym was a bit sketchy and the shower facilities not very nice. I always planned things so that I could go straight home from the gym. Now I just work out at home--cheaper and less stressful.0

Must be different in the men's. In the ladies we have soft music, scented soaps, drinks with umbrellas in them and wild lesbian love parties.
OMG, I almost spit my coffee out all over the screen !
My old gym had cute rooms with showers, soap, shampoo, lockers ..... my "new" gym has nothing, but it's cheaper ..... I use body wipes & spray ...... then I drive to work with the windows open :laugh:0 -
I wish the guy on the treadmill beside me the other night would have used the shower BEFORE working out. who works out in jeans and a polo shirt???:huh:0

Nope, I live 2 minutes from my Gym, so I go home and shower. Hell I usually arrive in my workout clothes so I don't need to find a locker. Plus now that the ice and snow is gone, I don't hit the gym very often, I go outside and run. I'm no longer the Mayor of my Gym on 4square but I'm still the duke on Yelp because nobody in my town uses Yelp.0

Used to shower at planet fitness, and it wasn't 100% private but I usually timed my workout to late at night when nobody was there(showered at home after) or during off-peak hours, so I rarely had to see anyone else naked... Plus I always wore flip flops-don't want to catch some unrulely foot disease!!! And carrying all hygiene essential was always a pain, but I did not want to smell like who-did-what when I went to work after... But yes, I am not afraid of the showers, as long as I've got my feet protected! And I don't put any of my stuff on the floor/hanging spots 'cause I don't know what is 100 percent clean... just throw it all back in my bag out the shower as I'm done with it...0

I always use the gym shower. Of course, they dont really like me too since I dont have a membership. :huh:0

I'm a grown adult.
Yes.0 -
Nah, I live too close to the gym to need to use the shower.
But I almost did during the 6 days without power/hot water in the Hurricane Sandy aftermath, but a family friend opened opened up their home.0 -
It depends. If I pee in the pool, I skip the shower. Otherwise I hit the shower to pee.0

Because you do this too, right?0 -
I do my gym isn't the cleanest but I read somewhere you can actually bring germs home if you don't shower but still I have also mastered not letting anything touch the floor either hahahah0

Yup, I usually work out just before work or during lunch. Since I always get a good sweat on, not showering would be gross and rude to my bosses, coworkers and clients. My gym has stalls with locking doors, they provide the (very bleached smelling) towels and I provide the flip flops. Some of y'all's gyms sound just nasty in comparison...0

I pay a high price for my gym and it is very clean and very private so yes I do shower. I couldn't imagine not showering after a workout. I don't know about you all, but I am dripping sweat after and I would never subject other people that stank!0

I've always showered after a workout, we only have communal showers but it doesn't bother me, unless some weirdo is gawping or licking his lips, then I worry a little.0
-
Every once in a while, but GENERALLY i shower after work and then I head home and have a shower.
I do keep a travel size bottle of shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel in my gym bag just in case, but then I usually end up having to go commando since I NEVER remember to keep an extra pair of underwear in my bag.0 -
i wait till i get home too. especially with smart phones these days...why start now?
my gym is a ten minute walk so i have no problem waiting. also, i grew up in a very sexually repressed nakedness is bad kind of home, so i don't like being naked around anyone except my fiance!0 -
mental note. don't ask bearkisses for a naked pic. :grumble:0
-
dont go to gym0

My work has a nice, employee-only, gym with clean showers. It's usually pretty quiet when I go, before work, so yeah I am going to shower there! I'd be standing in line for the shower if it was busy!0
