BO change after starting to lift Anonymous 04/26/26(Sun)20:25:37 No.77226627

I used to have normal armpit BO after a long day, accidently forgeting to use deodorant or using bad deodorant. But now I smell different -- not necessarily worse. Parts of my body that didn`t have a characteristic smell now do.

After starting to lift two months ago my BO changed. At some point I started to notice a general odor on my upper body as soon as I start sweating-- probably emanates from arms, back and shoulders. It has faint 'sweet' note to it and other notes I don`t know how to explain.

I don`t remember this kind of smell before lifting. I remember sweating a lot after walking outside on a hot sunny day and no noticeable smell would hit my nostrils; not even my sweaty shirt would smell. Now I smell different and my shirts get funky after a few hours in my backpack if I change them for fresh ones.

Have I caught someone else`s skin flora bacteria in the gym or is there another explanation? I wasn`t taking any supplements when I started to notice the smell.
