What to take to the gym - Check list with the gym esssentials
Make sure you pack what you need to take to the gym. Look at our gym bag essentials checklist for help and inspiration, and ensure you're fully equipped for every workout session.
- Workout clothes (of course) – a good tip is to choose breathable fabrics that keep you cool and comfortable during those intense workouts. That goes for the underwear too, here at Björn Borg you will find lots of sports underwear for him and training underwear for her. And also, for the ladies – don’t forget your sports bra, an essential piece to give you the right support and making sure you’re comfortable.
- The right sports shoes for the type of training you’re going to do. Also add a great pair of sports socks with a stylish design and a fit that’s making sure the socks stay up during intense workouts.
- Water bottle – it’s always super important to stay hydrated!
- Pre-workout snack: Fuel your body with a balanced snack containing carbohydrates and protein for sustained energy. Eat it on your way to the gym and get ready for your workout.
- Post-workout nutrition: Pack a protein-rich snack or shake to aid muscle recovery and replenish energy stores.
- Headphones to turn the music up and get the motivation going throughout the workout session
- A lock for the locker if they’re not the kind with code locks
- Small things and training accessories like for example hair ties, resistance bands and workout gloves and belts for weight lifting
- Towel and toiletries like shampoo, soap and deodorant - store them nicely in a practical toiletry bag.
- Extra clothes and underwear – why not a comfortable sweatsuit set?
