What to pack in your gym bag
If you're heading to the gym before or after work, or in between errands, a gym bag is essential. But which items do you actually need to pack? Here's a handy list:
- A change of clothes: No time to shower? Spare your fellow supermarket shoppers by changing your clothes before heading off to tackle your to-do list.
- Supplements & snacks: Don't leave home without your pre-workout powder, a tasty protein bar or a healthy snack, especially if you're not heading straight home.
- Water bottle: Sure, you could make 20 trips to the water fountain during your workout, but a refillable bottle is much more convenient. If you plan to make a post-workout protein shake, be sure to pack a shaker bottle, too.
- Towels: Keep your sweat to yourself! Bring two towels, one to wipe down gym equipment and one to use on your body.
