Training clothes are perhaps the garments that need the most hygiene care. You wear the clothes at the gym or when training on the street, the clothes move close to your body at times when you sweat heavily. Find out how to keep your parts clean and extend their useful life!
Keep reading to learn 4 essential tips for properly caring for your training clothes.
1. How to wash workout clothes
Workout clothing is generally lightweight and made to absorb sweat. Therefore, they should not be washed with products that impede their breathability. Therefore, it is preferable to use a neutral soap. For cotton clothes, using fabric softener may be a good option. In addition to the detergent used, it is important to pay attention to the water temperature. Always prefer room temperature or colder water, so as not to harm the elasticity of the fabrics.
2. How to dry your workout clothes
When you finish washing, “squeeze” the clothes well to remove excess water, but DO NOT WRING. When twisting sensitive fibers they can lose structure. So, after squeezing, let it dry naturally.
3. How to store workout clothes
Never store wet gym clothes. Too much water can damage the fibers and degrade the clothing.
4. Extra care
It may also be advisable to wash training clothes inside out, as what is exposed to washing will be the part of the fabric that will initially be dirtiest. On the other hand, a good solution for yellow stains in the armpit area can be leaving the clothes to rest in vinegar.
