KRISTOPHER JUNIEL: After a good workout,
those clothes will leave a reminder of all your hard work.
Here's how to get those odors out of sweaty clothes.
All your workout apparel should be handled separately
from your other laundry.
Any sweaty clothes, you should let them air dry completely
before putting them in a hamper and then try to wash those gym
clothes as quickly as you can and not
let them sit for days or weeks.
Best to wash everything inside out.
You can pre-soak your items in some cool water
and about a cup of white distilled vinegar.
Let the soak for 20-30 minutes to get
rid of all that bad bacteria.
After that, just drain and wash like normal.
Too much detergent and softener can actually leave
a residue on your clothes.
And right into the wash, you can add some baking soda,
which does wonders on odors.
When it comes to washing and drying, choose cool settings.
Bacteria loves heat so you don't want to give
them an environment to grow.
UV light and air drying is going to be
the best for your clothes.
So if you can, set them outside in the sun.
