Are You Worth It? Inside My Gym Bag

Thursday June 23, 2011

Don't Forget my stevia GIVEAWAY for NuNaturals stevia products. Four (4) winners will be chosen to get some!




Yup, the saying is backwards cause I took the pic in the mirror but this is my Inperspire towel that says - I AM WORTH IT!  OK, it was backward until the wonderful Cammy sent me the first pic cause she figured out how to flip it!!! Cammy, you are amazing & THX!!!! Had to leave both to share!

Anyway, Inperspire have great towels so check them out! Yes, those are my life saver Hoka shoes too - THX Sheri & Hoka! I have been putting them to the test big time & they ARE WORKING! LOVE THEM! 

Off to the side, my bag full of goodies. This is what is in it:

1. I bring 2 water bottles - One you see on the floor there (review in the future) & the other in the side pocket of my bag. With my loving it Go Caddy, hidden behind my bag, so I took a separate pic of it with my water bottle in it. I now carry my second water bottle in that along with my keys, cell phone & drivers license & important cards like that. It stays by my side in the gym! You can see the cool pockets & the clip for keys or something else. At the gym, I put my keys inside it.

2. I have 2 large towels for the benches & machines and at least 2 smaller towels. I do cardio first & am a hot, sweaty mess during & afterwards so I need plenty of towels! The gym towels are too "scratchy" for me. I use them to wipe down equipment & benches.

3. I also have an cable ankle strap to do inner/outer & butt moves, 2 exercise bands, my own triceps rope from years ago & I store my Harbinger weight lifting gloves & my iPod shuffle in there too.

3. Of course I have my hand sanitizer (even though the gym has machines), a hair clip & those Goddy non grab-the-hair rubber bands. I also have my FJ wristband in there too! I store my BEXRunner (that cooling device I reviewed) by my water bottle until I am ready to use it.

I add or take out various other goodies depending on the day..

So, yes, I am worth it - ARE YOU???? Tell me how you are worth it! What is in your workout bag?

    I am SO worth it =) I don't actually even have a gym bag though haha. I just bring my towel & water bottle (and amino acids if I am taking them that day), and put my keys & IDs and anything else in the cubbies we have (gym is on a military base with 589675 cameras so I'm not too worried about safety!)

    Well I don't go to the gym anymore so I don't have a workout bag. However, when I lift I must have some water, my Harbinger gloves, my iPhone and my laptop to show me my workout routine for the day.

    Good morning! Ha! You are more than worth it and so am I . I am so happy you love your towel. It means a lot to us and, as you know, "I Am Worth It", has gotten me through some rough times. Love the Hoka shoes. I think it is funny that you bring the big and small towels cause I'm a sweaty mess at the gym too and I always think I need to have a change of clothes after my cardio and before weights. Love it!

    I don't have a gym bag just now, but I do have a gym shelf in my workout room that houses anything I might need.

    When I do go to the gym, I generally just carry my towel, my gloves, my iphone/earphones, and keys.

    We are ALL worth it! Thanks for driving that point home Jody! As for my gym bag? I shower there before coming to work, so I have all my makeup, hair stuff, towels, flip flops, etc, etc. I fell like I'm packing for the weekend on the days I go there really early. Oh well, THAT is worth it too! Have a good day!!!

    My workout bag is my bike bag, so it has some of that stuff in it too LOL.

    I have my stop watch, hand sanitizer, workout pad and pen, a hat, plus my lifting gloves if I haven't worn them biking in.

    Also in there is a spare bike tube, pump, and tire lifters - but I hope to never need those doing a deadlift!
