    I also hate my feminine issues from sweating.

    I only keep mine on if I'm going to be doing something where I'll be getting hot and sweaty. Such as cleaning the house or doing yard work. Otherwise they come off, almost immediately.

    Guess I'm in the minority...get home from working out and have to make dinner, walk the dogs, etc, so I usually air dry until bedtime

    Me too. But then I'm usually not in compression pants/yoga pants, so air drying is not that difficult.

    Not me! I work out hard and am usually soaked in sweat. I go straight home and hop in the shower asap. I've run into issues with having my back breakout if I don't get a shower in after a workout. Yuck!

    This. Also I sweat so much that I get freezing cold if I don't shower and change straight away.

    I don't want back acne so I gotta take that stuff off. It's not good to sit around in sweaty clothes. The longest I keep them on is if I have to run to the store on the way home from my workout. Or while I regain movement after a run ;)

    Staying in sweaty workout clothes is just gross. I start stripping as soon as the workout is done.

    If I work out after work and I have someplace to go to, like an informal meeting and I know I'm going home afterward, I will stay in my gym clothes. But usually, I will put my work clothes back on, again, if I know I'm going home after.

    I only keep my nasty clothes on if I'm still going to be moving, like if I'm walking home from the gym, or riding back home.

    I'm always soaking wet. I take a shower and change as soon as I get home. Since I exercise almost everyday, I might skip washing my hair every day.

    I'll put them on in the morning even if I'm not working out until later in the day but once I've actually done my workout they are straight off!

    I work out when I get home from work - which is around 5:30 - 6:00 pm.

    By the time I'm done - it's after 7:00 pm - usually I make dinner for myself and my daughter (husband is in retail and usually isn't home for dinner) - THEN I take a shower and change.................

    It's always a 'mad-dash' in the evening..................!

    But I do like to shower before I go to bed since I work-out at night!

    For me, it depends on the workout level, if I'm at the gym or at home or outside, and what I'm doing after the workout. I always try to shower after an intense workout but if I can't, I usually know ahead of time that I have things going on and will at a minimum bring a change of clothes. That said, there are times when I'm outside workout out and for a change of scenery I'll go somewhere else to run, cycle, or walk on roads other than those around my house - often I will run errands afterward and I don't bring a change on these occasions.

    Unless it's a very easy yoga class or walk in cool weather, I need to get out of my clothes and shower ASAP. After swimming I have to get the chlorine or salt off of me.
    When we scuba dive I may stay salty (or gross from lake water) for quite awhile out of necessity but I hit the shower as soon as possible.

    Sometimes my smell is offensive even to me so I RARELY stay in them any longer than I have to. If I work out over lunch, I shower at the gym. If I am going straight home after boxing class, I'll drive home in my sweat and stink, but with the windows down and then get showered shortly after getting home. If I have to go somewhere after boxing class (it is an evening class) I will shower at the gym and get back into regular clothing. No one should be subjected to my post-gym funk.

    I work out in the evening so yeah I've been known to plop my butt down at the computer and zone out for an hour afterwards because I'm pooped but yeah I should be hitting the shower because it's gross.

    No. I always shower and change after a workout. 'Cause I'd be grossed out if I didn't.

    The usually come right off. Only time I keep them on is if I'm doing a double workout soon afterwards!

    I usually have an hour or two of things to do before I get home and will just wait till I get back to change, but I don't sweat much either. And, I keep extra deodorant in the car so I can reapply when I'm done so I dont' stink too much. If I had to be out ALL day and went to the gym first I'd shower and change.

    Depends on the intensity and my post-workout plans. I usually go straight home, make dinner and do some housework and stay in my workout clothes for another hour or two and then shower. BUT, if it was an extra intense workout, I hop in the shower as soon as I get home. If I'm meeting up with friends after, I shower at the gym.

    Im in the same boat. If I do an afternoon work out I end up air drying before I can get to a shower. Even when I work out at 420 in the morning I may not end up in the shower until 6am. With a 60min workout of course.

    I would not envy anyone for sitting around for hours in their own sweat. :sick:

    Ill admit - I go work out in the morning, may do some house work, possibly work out again later...
    I wake up, put on clean workout clothes..and I stay in them all day long. I bask in it. Like a badge of honor.


    same here especially on the weekends!

    I usually work out in the morning so I walk in the house and right to the shower. I can't stand being in my wet sweaty workout clothes, it grosses me out.
