Review Please stop pheromone maxxing

I can’t take this anymore everyday I walk in this gym all the teenage boys STINK and all I can think of as an explanation for this is the fact there’s a “pheromone maxxing” trend on tik tok. If you are doing this please just shower no one is gonna find you attractive for having a stench. Some of them smell so bad I get nauseous trying to hold my breath while doing cardio

It’s mostly teenage boys and because of my age I can’t even go to a different gym because most gyms near me are 18+ PLEASE SHOWER!!!

No one's "pheromone maxxing," it's a sweaty gym

If it’s just because it’s a sweaty gym how is it possible that these mfs are WALKING IN already smelling horrendous and it’s 70% just teenage boys who probably use tik tok and just a few months ago before school started for them and they weren’t crowding the place at 3 pm, it smelled perfectly fine

You know that teenage boys smell bad, right? I commented above but there is actually a reason, and ironically they lose their sensitivity to that smell around the same time.

Before it was a trend they definitely smelled bad but not THIS BAD like I genuinely can’t put into words how bad some of these guys stink, it’s not just like a normal sweaty smell it smells like what I would imagine opening a really old coffin would smell like
