For those of you who grapples, how do you guys wash your clothes? In super hot, or do you think that warm will do the job to prevent staph. So far nobody has gotten it in our gym, but nowadays you have to be very cautious. Our instructor mentioned that some other gym in Chicago has suspended all grappling for now.
warm w/ a little bleech and detergent will do the trick
This website explains what you are talking about... I think you will find it to be very educational

i make sure to put my gi in an air tight bag after class and only take it out seconds before putting it back on, i also never wash it. i find bacteria helps me tap people.
thanks joker
lol @ al4a
got me there buddy.
Sorry that was to perfect a set up... lol
LOL @ washing clothes.
What're you, a woman?
I wash my gi in hot water with 1/2 scoop of detergent and 1/2 scoop of clorox-2 bleach, which is easier on the gi than regular bleach.
I go no gi, but i do change shirt and shorts everyday. so far so good. Right now, I just use regular detergent and no bleach so I don't fade out the colors. I made it through 5 years of rassling w/o ever getting any type of skin infection. Of course that was 15 years ago. I don't recall if staph was around then. There were some skin infection going around, can't recall what the were at the time.
TTT 4 serious answer. This place needs a comic forum.
