Why is it important to wash your gym clothes properly? When you exercise, you sweat. That's completely normal! But that sweat can cause stubborn odors and stains. By washing your gym clothes properly, you not only extend the life of the fabric but also stay feeling fresh during your workouts.

10 Handy Tips to Get Rid of Sweat and Stains in Gym Clothes

  1. Change out of your workout clothes immediately. Remove your sweaty gym clothes as soon as possible after your workout. This prevents bacteria from spreading and helps prevent infections.
  2. Don't pile up your gym clothes. If the washing machine is full, hang your sweaty clothes up instead of piling them up. Bacteria thrive in damp piles of clothing, so airing them out is a better option.
  3. Turn your gym clothes inside out. Turn your gym clothes inside out before hanging or washing them. This makes it easier for dirt and sweat to come out.
  4. Wash your gym clothes quickly. Wash your gym clothes as soon as possible after exercising. If you leave them lying around for too long, sweat and stains will set into the fabric.
  5. Wash at 30°C (86°F). Always wash at a low temperature, such as 30 degrees Celsius. Hot water can cause gym clothes to shrink and damage the elastic.
  6. Don't use too much detergent. Too much detergent leaves behind residue that bacteria can cling to. Use less rather than more, and try special detergents for sportswear.
  7. Skip the fabric softener. Fabric softener clogs the fibers of gym clothes, preventing them from getting clean. Skip it to prevent bad odors.
  8. Grandma's tip: vinegar. Soak your gym clothes in cold water with a splash of vinegar for 20 minutes. This helps remove old sweat odors.
  9. Avoid the dryer. Air dry your gym clothes, not in the dryer. Many fabrics shrink in the dryer, and air drying is also more environmentally friendly!
