Cool Your Core After A Lunchtime Workout!
If lunchtime is the only time you can fit in a regular workout, there are several simple things that you can do to cool down so you don’t return to your desk too sweaty.
On the night before your workout apply Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant to your underarms before you go to bed. Your pores will absorb it at night and a morning shower won’t diminish its action. Sold over-the-counter, Certain Dri Antiperspirant contains 12 percent aluminum chloride, the most effective active ingredient used in prescription antiperspirants. Yet, Certain Dri Antiperspirant is water-based (vs. alcohol-based as in prescription antiperspirants), gentler on the skin and available without a doctor’s prescription.
Here are few other things you can do to combat noticeable sweat and body odor after some lunchtime exercise:
- Cool Down period of workout – time may be short during your lunch hour workout, but it’s important to account for the cool down period. This gives the body a chance to “throw off” some heat before getting into the shower or before you get back to the office.
- Cool Your Core - Drink cool water or some other beverage as it’s the body’s internal temperature that you are trying to cool.
- Cool Shower –Taking a cool shower after your workout will help cool your body temperature down quick and wash away odor causing perspiration.
- Cool Your Soles: According to the new Certain Dri Feet survey*, 30 percent of U.S. adults admit to suffering from problematic foot sweat and odor. A lunchtime workout can only exasperate this problem. Certain Dri recently took perspiration control one step further, literally, and introduced new Certain Dri Feet Moisture Control Pads, which are recommended by the American Podiatric Medical Association, and Certain Dri Microsponge Powder, with a patented Microsponge® Delivery System that is triggered into action with heat, friction or moisture to release five odor fighting ingredients all day long. The two new products can be used together to offer maximized results in controlling excessive foot perspiration and odor, helping to maintain a feeling of fresh, dry feet all day.
- Back up System – And for those who want added odor protection apply your favorite daily deodorant after you shower.
If over-the-counter options don’t solve the issue of excessive sweating/odor of the underarms or feet, speak to a dermatologist, podiatrist or other health professional about a stronger prescription antiperspirant or other options available.
Please be sure to check out the latest “in the news” postings. We are also excited to announce that Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant was recommended by dermatologist Dr. Jeanine Downie in a “Solving Summer Skin Issues” segment on Today Show on July 9, 2008.
