How a great leg workout turned into an embarrassing nightmare
I typically wear pull up style diapers when at the gym, but my flow has been much heavier recently and I didn’t feel I could trust them. I wore an M4 the other day, with no issues. Today, as I was finishing my leg workout with some planks, I suddenly felt my shorts become wet. I had already had two accidents since I arrived, and this third one put it over the top.
I looked down at the mat I was using, and sure enough it was wet as well. I panicked and quickly used the gym provided towel to wipe it and got some disinfect wipes to do a cleaner job. While walking over though, some of the absorbent material fell out my shorts leg. This happened several more times as I frantically tried cleaning up. I cleaned up as much as I could see, but fear I could have missed something. Thankfully, I was alone in that specific room, but still had to make my way downstairs and to the locker room. I can’t go a gym session without seeing someone I know, often students.
I walked as slowly as possible, to be sure nothing else fell out. When I got to the locker room, I went in a stall and accessed the situation. I had worn briefs over the diaper, to prevent sagging. They were wet, but I couldn’t see the issue with the diaper. I had a fresh pull-up style in my bag, but I avoid changing there if at all possible. I changed my shoes, and abruptly made it to my car. It felt like another piece of absorbent material fell out on the way, but I was too embarrassed to glance.
This happened a few hours ago, and it’s still racing through my mind. I hope I did a good enough job cleaning up, and that no one (especially that I know) noticed anything on the way out.
Does anyone have recommendations on how to avoid this in the future? Perhaps cloth backed would be better suited for all the leg movements of gym day? My fear is cloth never absorbs the smells as well.
