4 essentials you need in your gym bag

With so many products on offer, it can be overwhelming trying to figure out what to bring to the gym with you. So, to make things easier for you, here are the top 4 gym essentials that you need to add to your gym bag.

When you workout, you’re putting a lot of load on your feet, which can lead to discomfort during your session. Also, when it comes to health and fitness, it is important to consider longevity – take care of your feet so that you can stay active for longer. Our socks are cushioned in all the pressure points, providing optimal support for all your big lifts. Also, our sweat-wicking technology helps protect against infections like athlete’s foot.

Unless you’re Popeye, there is a good chance that other muscle groups such as your legs or your back are much stronger than your forearms. When doing movements such as deadlifts or rows, you have probably found that as you increase the weight, your arms are giving out way before the muscles you’re trying to target.  In order to take these muscles close to failure on these movements, you need wrist straps.

 

Hydration is an often-forgotten factor in gym performance. You should be adequately hydrated before you get to the gym and continue to hydrate whilst you exercise. Having a quality, reusable water bottle is extra important post-Covid as gyms are restricting the use of the water fountains to bottles only.

Whether you’re struggling with gym anxiety or having a hard time staying focused and motivated during your workouts, a good pair of headphones can make all the difference. So pop-on your favourite music or podcast, and enjoy your gym session
