My favorite must have items for the gym include my own personal go-to items when it is time to sweat. Having all the right things in your gym bag is so important, and can make or break whether or not you have a fulfilling workout. Check out the following gear that will make your stash of women’s gym gear better than ever! 🙂
1. Nalgene Water Bottle
Nalgene makes really high-quality, yet super affordable water bottles. I bought my first one earlier this year and it is so sturdy and never leaks. I have been so happy with it that I bought another one that has a wider mouth so that I can easily put ice in it and let me tell you, these are so helpful at the gym.
Get one now! (Pssst, the light pink one has mini sparkles on it)

2. Adidas Gym Bag
I. LOVE. Adidas. I also love pink so when I saw this I fell in love instantly. *sigh* it was meant to be! They offer different sizes, styles and colors so you will likely find one that you will love as well. It has just enough compartments and space for a change of clothes, hair products, make-up, towels and shoes.
Get one now because these will never go out of style. EVER.

3. Waterproof Bluetooth Ear Buds
One of the problems I have had at the gym is listening to music without tripping on the cords, or the cords getting caught on one of the machines, resulting in embarrassing, awkward moments of getting myself back together. (Dorky girl problems).
So, I invested in these headphones that I can connect to my phone so that I don’t have to worry about any mishaps with the cords. You can adjust the cords on these to be snug to the back of your head, while also having the clip on ear pieces that stay in place. You will never have to worry about them pesky cords ever again. BEST FEELING EVER. LOL.

4. Running Armband
Whether you use wireless headphones or headphones that have wires, you can benefit from this in so many ways. I have tried plenty of these and they tend to slip off, or have weak Velcro. This one hasn’t let me down yet and the best part is that it is actually big enough for my gigantic phone.

5. Slip-Proof Weight Lifting Gloves
These are not only helpful if you lift weights but can benefit you when you do workouts like plate pushes or preventing blisters from using the rowing machine. The fact that they are black and pink doesn’t hurt either. They also have little tabs you can tug on for easy removal. (Also, these won’t leave you will chalk residue everywhere, haha).

6. ROCK YOUR HAIR Spray It Clean Instant Dry Shampoo
I just recently discovered dry shampoo and it is such a life saver for when you are all out of time. If you do a workout that is not vigorous, it is a perfect way to freshen up without having to take a full-on shower. This brand never lets me down but honestly whatever brand you choose should be fine. This one smells super good though. I have damaged hair so when I can, I try to skip shampooing every other day so this also helps with that. This should be one of your emergency go-to products!

7. Wordlock Pad Lock
You will need a lock to secure all your awesome gym gear in the locker room. I hate number combinations so I found this beauty. A padlock that uses words instead! You can make your password booty, loony, silly, willy or pooch – whatever you want. That is so much more fun than 1835, which is why this is on the women’s gym gear list!

8. Galaxy Bluetooth Fitness Watch
I am a fairly new owner of this watch and I must say that I love it so much more than the Fitbit! It is worth the little extra money to be able to play music from your watch (and Spotify streaming), receive texts, change the background to custom designs, download apps to, and of course check the weather, track your sleep, steps, calories and heart rate. It truly is the ultimate all-in-1 watch.
I also must note that the battery life is great! I use mine a lot to check texts and stuff and it still lasts 2 days until I need to charge it, and even then it charges super fast on a convenient wireless pad that comes with your purchase. 🙂

9. Motivating Music
Oh yes, last but definitely not least. You need some good music on your workout playlist. Like this one:
