From Gym Rat<br />

to Clean and<br />

Put Together<br />

in Ten<br />

Minutes<br />

or Less<br />

By Tanya Rosen<br />

IS THE NEED TO BE<br />

DRESSED AND PUT<br />

TOGETHER SOON AFTER A<br />

WORKOUT STOPPING YOU<br />

FROM WORKING OUT?<br />

BEFORE<br />

Here’s how I do it in five<br />

to seven minutes…<br />

sometimes several<br />

times a day!<br />

PREP!<br />

I have a written checklist<br />

of everything I need to<br />

bring with me in my<br />

gym bag, such as:<br />

• Deodorant<br />

• Body spray<br />

• Perfume<br />

• Sneakers<br />

• Socks<br />

• Even things I may<br />

forget, like a belt and a shell<br />

and extra stockings in case<br />

they rip.<br />

PACK IT the night before and go over the<br />

checklist in the morning.<br />

MAKE COPIES of this checklist instead of<br />

writing it over every time.<br />

KEEP THINGS IN THE GYM BAG<br />

instead of packing it each time. Yes, it’s<br />

doubles, but it saves time and error.<br />

NO DISTRACTIONS, only getting ready:<br />

Avoid checking your phone or getting into<br />

conversations or making to-do lists.<br />

Get ready first.<br />

MAKEUP SHORTCUTS<br />

When there’s no time at all I just put on<br />

bright lipstick and a little bronzer. I also<br />

put on waterproof mascara and liner in<br />

the morning so it stays on throughout my<br />

workout.<br />

SHOWER SHORTCUT<br />

No shower available or no<br />

time for one?<br />

I love fitness wipes and<br />

shower spray.<br />

These are almost as good<br />

as a shower and are<br />

available on Amazon.<br />

<strong>Winter</strong> Issue<br />

AFTER<br />

HIDE THE<br />

EVIDENCE:<br />

Don’t leave your gym<br />

bag and its contents out.<br />

Stuff everything in and<br />

put it away. (Spray air<br />

freshener in the room<br />

too.)<br />
