Sweating a lot in the gym...

[abhi_w92]

I drink about 6-7 litres of water in a day (thats close to 2 gallons)

In my intense weight training sessions, I sweat like a pig. People look at me with a disgust but I really cant help it. What should i do?
Although I follow and maintain proper hygeine, use my towel with me and wipe off the sweat from the machines with my leg to make it less awkward

Secondly, Can I drink water immediately after my cardio. If yes, then how much? (since the body is warm after the workout)

Do you sweat as much if you dont drink water before or during work out? It may not make a difference but you can try. I would defiantly still drink water during the workout.

It's funny, I didnt use to drink water at all when I was a teen or in my 20s and I mean not at all but I also never sweat, even when jogging in warm/hot weather and also never got dehydrated or felt light headed but I'm sure it was probably still not good for me.

Now I drink water all the time but probably not as much as a lot of people like you but I do sweat easily and find even after taking a shower after the gym I will still sweat for another 15 minutes or more.

I am not sure about that, since I sweat all the day in summers (outdoors) , even while not training. But as you said, i will try cutting some water in a day or so or check if it makes any difference

Don't worry about it, as far as I know the best thing you could really do is bring another towel. Do you wipe the machines with your towel as well?

Yes you can drink water straight after cardio, it's advised.

Thanks for the water advice.
I keep towel in the pocket only for hygiene reasons.
And no I just wipe of the sweat that dripped on the machines with my lower instead
