We talk a lot about getting your best body, and how the best way to do that is by using workout enhancers like sauna suits in a safe and effective way. One other thing that we don’t often talk about but should is how to care for your sauna suit. Your sauna suit is a tool. Just like other tools, you want to take proper care of it. The better you maintain your sauna suit, the longer it will last and higher benefit it will offer you to get closer to your best body. There are just a few things to keep in mind when thinking about how to care for your sauna suit.
Cleaning Your Sauna Suit
Most plastic sauna suits are hard to clean. They easily rip, and it's challenging to flatten them out completely. That’s why we recommend going with a neoprene sauna suit for maximum effectiveness. Neoprene is not only more durable, but also way easier to clean than its plastic counterpart.
Immediately after using your sauna suit, you'll want to wash it. Otherwise, it’ll start to build up bacteria and odor, especially if you’re using a public sauna or gym. The good news is, neoprene sauna suits are fairly easy to hand wash. You can mix a bit of soap and hot water and do this in a basin, or you can even just hang them up and scrub them down with the same mixture. Once you’re done, simply hang your sauna suit to dry.
Keeping your sauna suit clean is important for its cleanliness and useful lifespan, which is why you should generally clean it after every use if possible. It’s also important to let it dry thoroughly. Allowing it to stay moist or damp for long periods of time can help cultivate bacteria, but it can also cause damage to the seams. The better you care for your sauna suit, the longer it will last.
Storing Your Sauna Suit
When storing a neoprene sauna suit, you should make sure to hang it in a place where the temperature is consistent. Hanging allows the suit to relax and does not put unnecessary stress onto the threads and sewing at the joints. A consistent temperature will ensure that the neoprene quality is maintained and does not become weak.
Overall, caring for your sauna suit is a simple process and one that all people should take pride in while they are working to get their best body. Neoprene sauna suits are by far the best choice due to their durability, and the ease with which you can clean them. To keep your suit strong, simply clean it after each use, and store it by hanging it in a place with a consistent temperature.
