You know how active I am! I’ve been working on trying out different workout classes with my trainer and also different cardio options on my own, so what goes in my gym bag matches my workout that day! Incorporating latin music, dance classes to beat the boredom!
It’s important for you to feel comfortable and protected as you go about your day. However, there is one thing that can stop me in my tracks – lack of ‘down there’ freshness, you know what I mean!
I do have some fitness essentials which are usually in my bag and I always carry! Let’s get started!
My first must have item is a Workout Bra, because I need to have the support and freedom to tackle any activity without worrying about my outfit!
My Water Bottle with mint leaves or lemon is also a must have instead of the plain water bottle options I find at the gym! I usually make an infused water pitcher and pour it in my bottle right before going to the gym! Here is one of my favorite recipes: Infused Water
Now I’m letting you in one of my most favorite parts, my wipes! Always Wipes help you feel clean and fresh throughout the day. They are conveniently packaged in individual wrappers, so perfect for use on the go, after activities or anytime you just want to feel refreshed. I usually use them before the gym and after. Since sometimes I go to the grocery store and run errands without the time for a full shower!
My Toe Socks are also another great accessory to carry to the barre and yoga and play classes.
I have long curly hair, so Head Bands, accessories to make sure my hair stays out of the way when I’m exercising are also essential to me!
The summer is here, so I choose sometimes to do my cardio outdoors in a park or local trail. My moisturizer with spa in a travel size is also always with me to protect my skin from the sun and the heat!
I normally carry a Snack Bar and a Fruit and eat the snack bar before the workout and the fruit afterwards to avoid that temptation of hitting the fast food around the corner to curb my hunger!
I
I usually carry a pack of Mints, because the heat and that after coffee taste in the morning will remove the freshness of your breath! I also carry a travel size lip gloss, usually in a closed container which will not open, nor spill in my bag!
My Wireless Headphones are my new favorite item, since they allow me to take brisk walks without worrying about hanging wires! I have all my favorite Latino songs that make me go the extra mile!
Since I’m always on the go and gym time for me is in between my daily routine, I always carry a travel size deodorant.
But are you ready for my most kept secret???? The Always Sheer Dailies which is a flexibly thin panty liner that is so comfortable you can wear it all day, every day to stay “shower fresh.” With no feel protection, and a thin design; Always Sheer Dailies is so discreet that I often forget I am wearing it.
Exercise for me, it’s my way of keeping my body healthy, so it’s an important part of my life and my Gym Bag gives me the essentials to live the active life that is so important to me!

I’m a big fan of infused water. I have my own favorite blend that is my go to choice. The modal bag is lovely too – I have one myself at one point. Very spacious. Thank you for sharing your essentials. xx
I don’t have a gym bag but this is a great list of things to keep in your gym bag!
I am fairly new to going to the gym. I do carry several of the items you have in yours. I think the Always wipes are a smart addition I will be putting in my bag.
I love infused water like this. It is so refreshing and tasty. Sometimes I need the flavor but don’t want the calorie. This is perfect.
I love that purple gym bag. You can’t even tell its a gym bag lol Good tips on adding a snack in the gym bag. The few times I went to the gym I’d be so hungry after!
You have all of the essentials covered and your gym bag is cute in a non-traditional way. I love that. I freaking love toe socks, they are so comfy.
Oh, I need to try your infused water. That sounds so refreshing! Love what you put in your gym bag. Seems like you have a little bit of everything!
I love your purple bag! I need to get myself some of those toe socks, great idea!
I love that gym bag. It actually looks really spacious! I am going to need to start infusing water myself.
I’m totally loving infused water now, but I still have to get me that kind of pitcher though. 🙂 Nice workout bra. Like it!
these are some great essentials! I always have my bathing suit, gym shoes, new outfit, & ear phones!
This is a great breakdown of what you carry in your gym bag, I carry similar things. I love having lemon water when I work out, it’s so delicious and really hits the spot when you get really into your workout.
I’m ashamed. I don’t keep a gym bag. I take my water, towel, and keys. After my session, I wash my hands and leave. Luckily, I’m about 5 minutes or so from the gym. I may have to start keeping one though. – Yolonda
Great items to include. I belong to one of those in and out gyms so I don’t carry a gym bag but these are great essentials to keep on hand at all times.
This is a great list of gym bag essentials. I need to stock up on hair elastics. I always keep a spare change of clothes.
Love this list! These are all such essentials when you head to gym.
I always keep snacks, hair bands, and deodorant and body spray in my gym bag. I hate the idea of other people being able to smell me at the gym!
I think those are all great ideas for a gym bag. Water is a must for me, as well as a couple of snacks. It’s always great to keep extra clothes too.
These are great items to bring to the gym. I always make sure to bring a face towel and wipes.
This is a great list of gym bag items. I always make sure to have face/body wipes and hair ties.
I always keep a couple of nice terry cloth towels in my bag for after I get all sweaty. I can’t stand be sweaty for even a few minutes after I’ve finished working out.
Love this list for you gym bag!! My wife recently started going to the gym quite a bit so it gives me some great gift ideas for her, love the idea of Cottonelle wipes for it.
