    Alright what’s up with all the woo’s on this post??

    I noticed that too. Apparently people have strong feelings about the right way to do laundry? /shrug

    Hi there,

    Does anyone have an excellent way to get rid of the stank from my gym gear? When it comes out of the drier it smells clean, but once I've heated it up (with body heat) I can tell which set of stuff has been worn in the gym!

    My dad sent me some spray - I think it's called Frogger? It helps keep stuff smelling fresh in between washes. I have the issue describe with my knee sleeves. They smell bitter and nasty as soon as I start working out even if they were just washed.

    My husband had that issue with his workout shirts. We figured that after five years, it was time to buy more shirts.

    Gonna try the vinegar trick with my gym towels. They are really suffering from having to be rolled up while still damp and then left in my bag while I go about the rest of my day and then have an hour and a half's commute home...

    If you use them often for a long period of time they will eventually get manky and will need replacing.

    I have a football (soccer) shirt I used to play in and then went to the gym in on/off for 5 years and eventually it just had to be binned!

    Great value shirt and it still looked great but stank!

    I was proud of it though!
