Wash them ONLY with other whites. Use some all fabric bleach along with the laundry detergent. Use the soak cycle on your washer. Dry on medium, not hot, and use the no wrinkle setting. Simple as that!
Do you really iron your V-neck underwear?
The OP also mentions handwashing in cold... that would not cut the sweat of the men I know.
1. Sweat is water soluble, so the temperature of the water to get rid of sweat is really unimportant
2. It is the bacteria that sweat leaves behind that causes odor. This is what you're trying to get rid of.
Your best bet is to buy 4X the t-shirts that you think you need and to rotate them in and out. I have t-shirts that I have worn for almost 20 years, but the ones I wear regularly are in much worse shape than the others.
If you get enough t-shirts to where you wear (and wash) them less than once a week, then you will probably get a lot of years of use out of them.

I'd recommend Tide whitening/brightening pods rather than bleach. I only use bleach tablet (vs liquid) for things like towels and cotton sheets. Regular bleach might be rather harsh on your t-shirts.
