Don’t be a stinky partner

05.26.11 By Danelle 1 Comment

Deodorant - I haz it.
Let’s be honest—no one likes working with someone who doesn’t smell fresh.

With summer temperatures already here, there is a lot of sweating going on. Please be courteous and make sure to wear deodorant to class. Better yet, go the extra mile and throw an extra stick in your bag. That way, you always have it with you!

Do I also need to mention that you should wash your workout clothes after every class? Sweat in your clothes promotes bacteria growth, which causes odor. I’m talking all of your workout clothes (boys—groin protectors too! girls? bras!!).

While you are out buying an extra deodorant for your bag, pick up some Febreze too, and make sure you spray down your gear after every use.

Keep calm and be clean, people!
