Going out in public right after the gym?

davebreal · #1 08-18-2007, 02:55 AM

My strategy is to go to the gym usually around 11AM and sometimes I like to stop at the grocery store or the nearby Walmart on my way home to pick up whatever I need afterwards.

Main issue is that I have a very low sweat threshold, and I cardio+weights when I go to the gym. Basically, I come out of there looking like absolute hell, and shower when I get home.

Anyone else ever run errands while still profusely sweatty?

How bad is this?

I have a girlfriend, so I'm not concerned with impressing random women.

Shower at the gym.

I do that a lot. Well, not a lot, just on the super rare occasions that I actually go work out. Whatever, it's not a big deal. If it makes you uncomfy then just shower at the gym.

Show your pump. Also, try to get at least semi-hard before you get out of the car.

I sweat like crazy but I don't stink up usually. If you smell like butt you should probably do your fellow man a favor and take a shower.

Who cares about random people you'll probably never see again.? Do whats best for you.

btw, this is bad but not nearly as bad as people who get onto the subway covered in sweat. they should be fed to lions or something.

i think this is fine, as long as you don't see anyone you know

seriously though i always go to the Vons next to 24 Hr after I work out; it's nice and airconditioned and I consider the walking aroudn to be like a cool down!
