What's in my Workout Bag?
First things first, the bag
itself. I wanted a semi cute bag that I could take from school to the gym and
back again. No duffels or drawstrings here. I ended up with a cute, black purse
from Target. It is on the larger side for bags, and it has a mid-sized zipper
section. It’s just what I wanted- cute, affordable, and large enough to store
all my stuff.
Clif Bar- In
case I need a post workout or study snack, I keep a Clif Energy Bar in my
workout bag.
Single serving packet of protein powder- If I’m on the go after a workout, I can have a
protein shake. I keep this, along with the Clif Bar, in the zippered section.
Water bottle-
This one is pretty obvious. It’s important to stay hydrated both during and
after a workout!
Bullet Workout Journal- I keep a bullet journal full of workout ideas and
meal prep ideas. I have a spread for each major muscle group, along with common
exercises and machines that target each group. In this journal, I also have my
master list of meals. Here, I keep my favorite breakfasts, lunches, dinners,
snacks, and desserts.
Workout cards designed by my trainer- When I worked with my trainer this summer, he put
together 4 workout cards for me, including weight amount to use and repetitions
to do. If I want a really good workout, I pull out one of these and do it!
Ear buds-
This is also pretty obvious. I have to listen to music while I workout. It pumps
me up and keeps me going!
Deodorant-
Also pretty obvious. I use this after a workout if I have somewhere to be and
don’t have time to shower.
Mini hair brush-
Just like the deodorant, I use this when I need to be somewhere and don’t have time
to run home and fix my hair.
Mini mascara-
Same exact reason as the prior two items! Swiping on a quick layer of mascara
brightens up my face and makes me feel more put together.
Travel pack of makeup remover wipes- After a really sweaty workout, I don’t want any
makeup on my face, which is why I keep a small pack of makeup remover wipes.
Pacifica Complete Face Wash- This is great! It removes excess makeup, cleanses,
and tones my skin. It’s also something I use if I need to go somewhere right
after a particularly sweaty workout.
Membership Card-
It’s easier to keep my gym membership card in the bag I always take to the gym.
That way, I will never forget it!
Extra cash-
Finally, its just a good idea to keep a little cash on you. You never know when
you might need it for gas, food, etc. You don’t have to carry too much; even
$10 should be enough in an emergency situation.
I love being able to grab my
bag and go! It’s easy to forget some things (like ear buds), but by having my
workout purse prepped and ready, I won’t forget anything. Feel free to add
anything you have to have when you workout in the comments!
