<\/a>So, the key to a successful workout is successful planning! I actually keep two gym bags… I know it’s insane… But I do not want to entertain that excuse that \u201cI do not have what I need\u201d EVER!<\/p>\nIn my gym bag I have 10 essentials:<\/p>\n
1.\u00a0 A Fitbook<\/a><\/strong>: An amazing journal\/planner to track all of my calories and workouts and MORE!<\/p>\n 2. A GOOD pair of shoes<\/strong>: I had my feet analyzed by a shoe company that told me the best shoe for me. You can get this done at many running stores, and yes it is worth the financial investment! A good shoe can save you many injuries!<\/p>\n 3. A pair of workout capris<\/strong>: For me, shorts ride up and pants are too hot, so capris are a perfect balance.\u00a0 I have also found that the more fitting they are the less chaffing they cause.<\/p>\n 4. A breathable material top<\/strong>: I am not a “gear head,” meaning I don\u2019t have to have a specific brand I wear, so I buy $2 tanks on clearance from wherever as long as they are thin and loose.<\/p>\n 5. An awesome pair of socks<\/strong>: I use the ones from Asics that are anatomically supporting! This helps my archless-ness. They are left and right, so no getting dressed in the dark!<\/p>\n 6. A good sports bra<\/strong>: I buy a size smaller for extra support and I know a good one by the fabric – the thicker the fabric the better support.<\/p>\n 7.\u00a0 A few hair bands<\/strong><\/p>\n 8. iPod<\/strong>: with some uplifting playlists<\/a>!<\/p>\n 9. A schedule of classes<\/strong>: When you are feeling like you are lost (happens to ALL of us) join a class and have someone else tell you what to do and get on a GREAT burn!<\/p>\n 10. Water bottle<\/strong>: Hydration is super important folks! Toss some lemon\/lime slices in for some vitamin C, flavor and it looks snazzy, too!<\/p>\n Also Read:<\/strong><\/p>\n Pack Your Gym Bag for Your Best Workout Yet<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Best Sports Bras for Busty Girls<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n The 5 Best Yoga Accessories<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There are a few items that are must-have arsenal when living a healthy lifestyle.
