    Seriously I have never left the house in the morning with out brushing my teeth, I even do a quick brush before I do my weights with my man, he's my spotter, and I don't want to do my heavy breathing all over him, that's just bad taste!

    OMG YES! It feels nasty to have slimy teeth while you're working out (and anytime, really!)

    slimy?

    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:

    By the time they realize I have yuckmouth, I'll be conscious.

    I do sometimes ... but who is getting that close to me at the gym that they can smell my breath???

    *edit: plus at my gym at 4:30am there are like 5 people and I don't talk to any one. I brush my teeth after my breakfast and coffee after the gym.

    I even brush my teeth when all I've got to do that day is work from home in my jammies...I may be a dirty dilbert, but my teeths are clean!

    I AB_SO_LUTE_LY POS_I_TIVE_LY 100% of the time brush my teeth before I go to the gym. I actually don't walk outta the house EVER before brushing my teeth. My family makes fun of me because I carry dental floss in my car. <SMH> that this even had to come up in a thread but thanks for posting it for those who do NOT brush.

    I don't usually smell people's breath...and if they're that close to me, bad breath is going to be the least of his worries!

    I clean my teeth before dragging myself in to open the gym at 6am - THEN I eat breakfast and drink a coffee but I just can't leave the house without cleaning my teeth.

    I have had a couple of early morning people in with stale (not really bad) breath so at least rinsing out their mouth would be preferable.
