As the world opens up with trepidation, we’re slowly going back to the things we used to do, like hitting the gym. Of course, getting back to our old routines means you need to get the essentials you need to get back on track. But don’t worry, we’re here to help you get back on your gym game with some gym bag essentials.
We’re not highlighting workout attire or product to distract, these gym bag essentials will make your workout (and life!) easier in and out of the gym. We’re highlighting six essentials from Cooling Cuff, RiO, HydroJug, STNKY, ATTITUDE, and August + Monroe.
Cooling Cuff – The Solution to Excessive Body Heat, $34.95
We absolutely needed this American-made, wonder product when summer temperatures reached the all-time highs. A veteran-owned business, Cooling Cuff is solely focused on helping your body cool down properly. Wear it on your wrist for the optimal place to cool down after a workout. Cooling the body at the wrist can alter thermoregulation, rapidly lower core body temperature, and quickly restore temperature homeostasis. That means athletes can train longer and recover faster without their bodies using all their energy to cool down. Get a set now on www.amazon.com.
