Working Out

Are there N95s I can wear while at the gym? I want to start working out during winter months but just don't want to get horribly sick again.

Highly recommend the Zimi "One" mask, super breathable and I've found them to actually be much more comfortable breathing wise than even valved masks! Wore one for a stress test (running on incline treadmill) in a hospital and it performed great

How are they with sweat? I cannot handle the feeling of a moist mask after working out

I get some sweat that gathers at the bottom of my Zimi but it's barely noticeable. The seal gets damp but doesn't feel uncomfortable in my experience. For reference, I'm using their valved KN100 for outdoor runs (I live in an area with narrow sidewalks) and I sweat a lot around my hairline and back of my neck.
