What’s in My Gym Bag

Fitness has been more important to me lately than ever! I have finally been getting back into the shape I want to be in, and feeling better about myself in general. Some days it can be really hard to motivate myself to make it to the gym, but with the right items, I am ready to go, pumped up and motivated!

So here is a look into my gym bag:

I need a cute workout outfit because, even thought it sounds silly, when I am excited about what I’m wearing, you better believe I’m more motivated! That includes my workout shoes! I love these because they are bright and fun and go with anything I wear to the gym.

Next, I have to make sure I have my tunes and my heart rate monitor! I either listen to Pandora (Lady Gaga is my favorite station) or one of my playlists on YouTube. Since I am usually lifting weights, I like to have an accurate count of how many calories I’ve burnt to keep track of my week by wearing a heart monitor watch. I always enter this information on MyFitnessPal.

Of course I need a water bottle to keep me hydrated and a towel to wipe the sweat. When you’re sweating, you know you’re getting a good workout.

Now, there is something I just added to my gym bag: the Venus Snap from Target! Whether I am wearing a razorback tank top and leggings, or a long-sleeve top and shorts, the Venus Snap is my new best friend at the gym, ensuring smoothness on the go!

I mean you can seriously take this with you anywhere, and it comes in this cute, compact case and has an easy-to-grip mini-handle! So it is convenient and just what I need for touch ups before hitting the gym. After all, it can be embarrassing to discover your pits are out of control while doing tricep extensions or you notice your legs need a touch up while doing seated calf raises. Now I have no worries, this is my perfect new gym accessory and a must have for all last minute situations, or when you’re on the go!

Find the Venus Snap at Target and make sure to add it to your gym bag, or wherever you might need it for a touch up!

And don’t forget, when it comes to your fitness goals, never quit!
