What's In My Gym Bag

I work full time therefore my work bag is my most used. However, I go to the gym after work so my work bag is actually my gym bag at the same time. I tried using two separate bags the first few weeks but it just didn't work for me, I had to somehow incorporate both in one functional bag and this gym bag from Under Armour was the best bag I found! It has the functions of a gym bag that I need as well as an everyday work bag that I can carry and use at work everyday.

Before I share what is in my gym bag, let me quickly talk about the bag. I found it on Amazon in the Under Armour shop and instantly fell in love with it. It is the Under Armour women's essentials 2.0 duffle. The size was just perfect for me to carry around everyday as it is not as bulky and heavy as my other gym bags that I used to wear. It's 100% polyester with zip closure and delivers and element-battling, high water resistance finish. It has a large main compartment with full-length zip closure and adjustable cross body straps for multiple ways to carry. I also love the pockets that it has especially the external slip pocket for easy, on the go storage. And did I mention that the pockets are fleece lined?

So, enough of the bag. Here is what I carry in my gym bag.

Toiletries bag

My toiletries bag has the essentials that I need like hand sanitizers, disinfectant sprays, a hairbrush, some wet ones, Chapstick lip balm and my Potpourri. I also carry with me some mints for fresh breath.

Water bottle

Gym towels

Apple watch series 3

My watch has the apps I need to track a lot of health and fitness stuff like my steps, the number of miles I walked and my heartbeat. I also downloaded a tracker for my period which helps me keep track of my monthly visit.

Apple Airpods 2nd Gen

I have to have music playing when I run the treadmill and do my exercises to keep me motivated so I always have my airpods with me. I prefer the airpods because they are hands free which gives me the freedom to do my exercises without having headphone wires in my face.

Truwomen Plantfueled Protein Bars

Nike gym shoes

A set of active wear

Your workout wouldn't be complete if you didn't have any cute outfights right? Some of my favorite ones are from Fabletics. I love this brand because it's like Lululemon quality without the Lululemon price! It always feel better when you wear good quality active wear that not only gives you the support and comfort you need but also the extra added cuteness! Other than this brand, I also love NIKE's active wear and between the two that I use when I work out, I really cannot say more about the quality and the comfort of these pieces when I use them.

These are what you will basically see in my gym/work bag everyday. I'd add in my lunch too but that changes everyday and maybe that's another blog topic that I could share with you guys-what I prepare for lunch for me and the hubby- hmm.. that would be nice, right?

So, these are basically the things I have in my gym bag aside from the things that I specifically use for work.

XOXO,
