Wipe Down

Bringing a clean and dry towel or deodorant wipes to the gym is a must if you don’t want to take a shower after a workout. Use the towel or wipes to clean your face and wipe off sweat after exercise and then you can change into clean clothes.

Use Dry Shampoo

Our hair usually gets pretty sweaty during workouts and chances are that you don’t have time to wash it every single time. That’s why using dry shampoo is a quick and easy way to clean and volumize your hair after exercise.

Hydrate

Staying In Your Gym Clothes

Sweaty workout clothes are a perfect breeding ground for bacteria, so it’s not the best idea to stay in your gym clothes. Make sure to shower and change clothes immediately after a workout to avoid bad odors and infections.

Getting Lazy

Just because you had a great workout doesn’t mean you should spend the rest of the day in bed or sitting in your living room. Staying active by taking a short walk is the best way to refuel and recover after a workout.

Doing Heavy Chores

Light activities like walking are recommended, but doing heavy chores after a workout is not a good idea because it can lead to injuries. It’s best to give your muscles time to recover and avoid lifting heavy things while you’re tired.

Overdoing Calories

Some athletes think that intense workouts and burning major calories give them license to eat whatever they want. This, however, is far from the truth, so try to avoid eating fast food, sweets, and other unhealthy foods after a workout.

Cherry Juice

Most people don’t know this, but cherry juice is one of the best and healthiest post-workout drinks. It’s high in antioxidants, which means it’s a great anti-inflammatory drink that helps sore muscles recover faster after a hard workout.

Coconut Water

Coconut water is high in antioxidants and electrolytes such as magnesium and phosphorous, and it’s also low in sugar. All of this makes coconut water one of the most popular and flavorful sports drinks.

Black and Green Tea

A cup of tea can also help you rehydrate and recover after exercise. Black and green tea specifically are good for recovering muscle strength and reducing soreness, and they are great for relaxing after a long and hard workout.

Water with Fruit Slices

If none of the above mentioned drinks sound interesting and you still don’t want to hydrate with plain water, try adding fruit and vegetable slices to make a refreshing and flavorful drink.

This can happen with any workout that requires you to push yourself. While it’s not pleasant, it’s nothing to worry about. The cause is physiological: as your blood starts pumping during the workout, your body distributes it to the muscles, leaving a little for the stomach and making you feel sick.

The most likely situations for feeling nauseated during a workout include doing the work that your body’s not used to. While pushing yourself is important and even necessary in order to progress, you may want to do it gradually if you don’t want to feel sick after every session. When you eat before working out also matters – plan the workout session around 1.5-3 hours after a meal.

Banana

Bananas are one of the best snacks out there. You can find them anywhere, plus they are not expensive at all. Bananas will give you the daily dose of potassium and replenish the electrolytes you need.

Avocado

Avocados are not only loaded with healthy fats, but they also bring potassium to the table. You are probably surprised to see them on this list, but it’s good to know that this fruit is an approved post-workout snack.

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are so easy to include in your daily routine. You can use them in puddings, in your water, smoothies, and more. They contain many nutrients that will refuel the electrolytes you lost while exercising. Don’t hesitate to mix them with the other foods on the list as well.

Kale

Kale and other leafy greens are another source of potassium that you need to have in mind. A healthy salad can be your go-to snack once you come back home from the gym.

Wash Face With a Gentle Cleanser

Your gym bag should definitely have a gentle face cleanser that you should use after every workout to remove sweat and oil that accumulate on your face.

Towel Dry

Avoid wiping your face with a towel, especially if it gets red and sensitive after a workout. Instead, gently tap it dry.

Toner

Reduce redness and bring back life to your skin with a trusted toner that works for you.

SPF

No matter the season or the weather outside – unless it’s already dark – apply some sunscreen that will protect your skin from harmful sun rays.
