Bottle Light, Bottle Bright: Cleanest Bottle I See Tonight

Do you have a water bottle that’s hard to clean? Or a travel coffee mug that’s beyond gross? Or a CamelBak hydration pack you used when hiking that could be studied by a 6th-grade science class for a lesson on bacteria growth? Um, yeah, me, too. Which is why when Clean Ethics emailed us about [...]

FBG Tish’s Letter to Dudes Everywhere: The Not-So-Sweet Smell of Hard Work

Remember how last year Gal Josefsberg wrote this amazingly inspiring letter to women of the world telling us all that we are perfect as we are? Well, this year for Fit Bottomed Dude’s Week we’re taking that concept and flipping it. Every day this week each FBG will share her very own personal letter to the guys of the [...]

7 Ways to Avoid Gym Germs

You’re headed to meet your girls at the gym for Zumba class. You can’t wait to be surrounded by hot tunes, good friends and…germs?

Fit Tip Friday: Keep Your Water Bottle Clean With This Cool (Literally) Trick!

You probably carry your water bottle with you here, there and everywhere. Which means that it gets a lot of use. (And that you probably pee a lot!) But does it get a good scrub down? What about in those hard to reach areas like the straw and the lid? Well, self-admitted germaphobe FBG Tish [...]

How to Remove Those Yucky Yellow Armpit Stains

Confession: I purposely don’t buy a lot of white shirts or tanks to work out in because, well, they just get gross in the armpit region. And yellow. And did I mention gross? I’ve heard my girlfriends complain of this, too, but it’s a huge bummer to have to ditch some of your favorite white [...]

Going Natural in the Wash with Vaska Herbatergent

We’ve been rather verbose about our, ahem, odor from time to time. Be it wet-dog smell after a run, pits that could use extra deo or workout clothes that get rank after a Bikram yoga class, getting sweaty can get stinky. We’ve tried special laundry detergents that are made specifically for laundering workout clothes, but [...]

How Ridiculous Is the Summer’s Eve Ad Campaign?

The most ridiculous thing to hit the advertising arena since…well, ever, is this bit of idiocy from Summer’s Eve. I won’t go on too much of a tirade because others have said it much better than I could (just check out the comments in link above). But seriously, when Jenn sent this to me the [...]

Body Wipes: Two Fixes for When You Just Can’t Shower

Whether you’re out camping, hiking or even just going from the gym to work, it’s easy to not feel your freshest after getting your sweat on. No matter if you’re going an hour or, ahem, six days without a shower, we put these two get-fresh products to the test to see how clean they really [...]

So Fresh. So Dry. So Many Ball Jokes.

Today’s extremely humorous post is written by Scott Barton, personal friend of the FBGs living in Lee’s Summit, Mo. A few months ago he stumbled upon an—erm—unique product, which we coerced him to sample and write about. Mwahahaha! When I was first approached to write this review (which I have to admit is odd to have your friend’s wife [...]
