5 Ways to save time on your post-gym routine

For most people, the day doesn’t end after they leave the gym. You could be hustling to finalize a presentation for a client meeting, rushing to catch up to after-work drinks with officemates, or praying that you get to the restaurant earlier than your date. How do you fit all that in your schedule, all while looking fresh and smelling your very best?

If you're running late and showering isn’t an option anymore, you can follow these quick post-training grooming tips:

Be selective with your workout gear.

Wearing cotton clothing while working out feels comfortable at first—until a ton of sweat builds up in the fabric. Dri-fit material not only soaks up all the moisture, but it also prevents that sticky feeling after an exercise.

Regularly wipe off that sweat.

Why eliminate body odor when you can avoid it in the first place? Regularly toweling off to stay dry while doing some physical activity reduces the time you need to freshen up afterward. It’s as simple as that.

Stock up on wipes.

Where there is sweat and grime, there is bacteria and odor. Some wet wipe variants are specifically made for post-training, with ingredients like tea tree oil and mint. Wipe off with that, and don’t forget to use facial tissue to dry off. If you want to stay fresh, you can also put on some baby powder and deodorant.

Use dry shampoo.

Freshen up after training using by rubbing this grooming essential, which does an excellent job at cleaning up that straight-outta-the-gym grease in your hair. Just be careful with the amount that you put on, so you don't get spots on your fresh change of clothes.

Wear perfume.

Of course, putting on perfume will seal the deal and ensure that you still smell good hours later. A sweet scent could go a long way, especially when the stakes are high, and you’re out to impress at a meeting or on a date.
