Planning on Starting the Gym? Here's 5 Items You Need to Buy
Joining a gym can be overwhelming, as there
seems to be so much you need. When you break it down, it is far simpler. There
are a few basics that you'll need, and although they may seem obvious, it'll be
hard to succeed in the gym without them! Each person wants to achieve something
different in the gym, so once you've got the basics, you'll pick up the rest as
you go along.
Water
Bottle
Although a lot of gym's have water fountains,
to save plastic, some gym's are no longer providing plastic cups. So, it is
sometimes better to have your bottle there for easy access whenever needed.
Other people prefer to take short breaks from their workouts by using water
fountains, so this is down to preference. However, it is always advisable to
take a bottle into classes, as you'll almost definitely need it!
Good
Quality Trainers
Having the right support for your feet when
training is a must. This doesn't mean you have to spend hundreds on specialist
shoes, but just having a good quality pair of trainers that you feel
comfortable in, and that feel supportive, will be perfect. As you become more
experienced, if you want to focus on weights, then shoes with a strong sole and
minimal cushion in the heels will be the best option.
Comfortable
Clothes
Wearing comfortable fitness clothing
to the gym is so important to prevent any restriction, whether you're focusing
on weights, cardio or both. Whether you want to opt for gym
joggers, shorts, leggings, t-shirts or vests, there are so many
options out there to make your gym experience as comfortable as possible. Plus,
if you have something stylish as well as comfortable, you might be more
inclined to push yourself to the gym more often!
Simple
Workout Bag
Staying organised by having all your kit in
one bag is the best way to go. You don't need anything fancy, just a simple
backpack or handheld bag will do the job. Even a carrier bag will do; anything
to avoid dropping all your stuff in the gym reception after juggling it from
the car. Having a few compartments can be helpful, but just make sure it isn't
too big, as it's got to go in the locker!
Headphones
Not everyone likes to listen to music when
they train, but others find it key to maintaining concentration and motivation.
To make sure that they do not get in the way, invest in some cheaper wireless
headphones. Whatever your activity, having a good set of headphones can change
your gym experience. When it gets a bit tough, nothing beats some inspirational
music.
