Whether you're a newbie in the gym or you've clocked in some serious pump hours, a gym bag can help make sure that you've got everything you need for a good session.
What to Pack In Your Gym Bag?
Of course different workouts will require different items, but here are the core gym bag essentials that you'll need with you for every gym sesh:
- Water bottle: This one is the most obvious hence why we have it at the top of the list. You want to keep as hydrated as possible whilst doing any physical exercise. You want to make sure that you're replacing any fluids that are lost from your body, mainly in sweat. Avoiding dehydration also means you can avoid any unnecessary cramps, fatigue or dizziness.
- Gym clothes: Some people go to the gym in their workout clothes and other don't. If you're straight after work for example. Ensuring you've got everything clothing-wise means you can set yourself up for a good workout. You've got the basics, gym tops, leggings or shorts and sports bra. Don't forget a fresh pair of socks. And weather depending, you might want to bring an extra hoodie or joggers for the journey home after.
