Sweaty Betty and Drippy Trippy

A tell-tale sign of a brilliant workout is your post-workout sweat factor...unfortunately, it really sucks ass when you go immediately to the office after your session and you find yourself equally as wet, or perhaps even more so, than you were whilst lifting...do you really want to be known at the water cooler as the person with hyperhidrosis?

To help prevent unwanted, yet entirely well deserved, underarm stains and Rorschach-like back splotches, you should take a cold shower. Of course, the first few minutes should be warm and soapy to kill of odor causing bacteria, but continually lower the water temperature until you feel your body's heat dwindle to a comfortable level...unless, you think your office mates are into that sorta thing.

If you continue to have excessive post-workout sweat, take a bit more time to cool down before your shower: a few extra minutes on a bike or a stretch mat is a great idea, though a luxury not many can afford...in which case, I suggest getting a head start on your emails and send off a few from your crackberry, drinking your protein shake before instead of after, etc
