Putting a towel over the machine you're using is crucial so it can soak up the sweat. Make sure to pick out a good towel to complete its purpose here. You want something absorbent yet comfortable as your body will be touching it. We strongly advise against using gym equipment without a towel.
If you have time to spare after working out or showering, hang the towel on a wire rack in the locker room for at least 1 hour. If your gym doesn't have wire racks, a hook will work just as well, just be sure to rotate the towel after about 30 minutes so the folds aren't holding moisture for an extended period of time.
The Gym is a communal environment and it's therefore important to keep hygiene at the forefront of your mind. Carrying a sweat towel and bringing it to each workout session gives that extra bit of cleanliness and means you can wipe down the machines for the next user.
While it says it's a 'yoga towel,' you can use it during any type of exercise that gets you hot and sweaty, like a HIIT (high-intensity interval training) session or during a run. Simply wet it in the sink and go.
