    I have a basket on top of my washer that I throw mine in. That way they don't stink up my closet where my laundry hamper is.

    I hang them on hooks in the bathroom to dry. Unfortunately, our bathroom doesn't have windows so it usually smells like a locker room in there. My husband gets annoyed but that's where I shower, so that's where the sweaty clothes are going to be.

    I have to let mine hang dry! The thought of them sitting in a hamper all wet gives me the heebee jeebies!

    I put them in my laundry basket....no issues. Rewearing? Maybe shorts some times....but a shirt? No way I'd reuse a shirt for a workout...far far too gross. lol

    Sometimes I'll re-wear shirts or pants if I didn't get too sweaty (on weight training days), but sports bras never get re-worn-they go straight into the laundry basket. Although I am a fan of not doing as much laundry and making my clothes last longer, I am definitely not a fan of the backne that goes with re-wearing sweaty clothes. Ew. :sick:

    I normally hang them in the bathroom and use them again the next day! And then from there got hung up until dry and straight to the washing machine. I work out 6 days a week! And since it's just me, I only wash clothes once a week.

    i normally lay them on the side of my hamper and let them dry overnight and then the next time something goes in there i throw them on in with it. it does get kinda rank in my clothes hamper, but there have yet to be any still wet clothes when i go to wash them.

    Back in the gym bag!! I re-wear them for some time. I totally test the limits of rankness. It's like my own personal joke. And just like in real life, everyone at the gym does NOT find me funny.

    I hang them usually ON the hamper. I rewear shorts and socks but not t-shirts. Those get waaaay to sweaty.

    Thanks for the feed back.. It's kind of neat to see how others do things and I am sure you picked up a few ideas too.
    I'm hung my shirt on the shower rod tonight and when it dries in the morning I'll place it in the basket. Before I threw them in one "workout" basket but they stayed wet.

    I hang mine because i rewear them because, hell i'm just gonna get sweaty and dirty so why dirty new clothes??

    I am glad I'm not the only person re-wearing their workout gear! LOL I know some people have a fresh, cute, new workout outfit every day, but I workout in my basement or go hiking in the woods. No one cares how I look! The less laundry the happier I am (and it's better for the environment to do less laundry, too.) :-)

    I can't afford to do laundry every day!! I wear each outfit three or four times.

    It depends on how much I sweat. If it's a really sweaty workout then I will let them dry on a door knob or sometimes even on the floor in front of the hamper, before putting them in the hamper. I don't like the idea of putting them wet in there. Same with towels. If I only sweat a little I will hang on door knob to wear the next day.

    Straight in the wash. Husband mountain bikes and coaches big kids soccer, big son plays soccer, mountain bikes and runs, and little man plays soccer and walks with me.

    We always have tons of stinky, sweaty clothes so, in the wash they go!

    Well, apparently I'm a disgusting freak because I just throw mine in the hamper. It's just sweat, people. Dayum. Can't imagine how stressed y'all would be in the 14th century when you'd be lucky to get a bath once/month.

    :laugh:

    Hahaha, I would be SO stressed. Not because my sweaty clothes would be in the hamper (cuz I have a drawer just for gross workout clothes until I do laundry next). But because I'm so ocd and not showering every day makes me very cranky. I'm very bad for the environment, generally. ;)

    I drape them over the hamper and then shove them in with the next dirty thing.
