Summer Gym Bag Essentials

No matter the weather, you love to work out - whether it's indoors or outdoors. During the hot summer weeks though, you might want to take a little extra care to pack some products that will help you cope with the heat and your busy social schedule. The team at HERS suggests a couple of must-have gym bag essentials to always keep on hand.

So, let’s start at the beginning, your GYM BAG. Look for a gym bag that has convenient compartments and is suitable for dry and wet storage. One of our favourite gym bags is the Nike Radiate which sports a separate shoe compartment that is ventilated and durable. The ventilated zip pocket in the front can store your wet and dry essentials and the coated bottom panel will help to keep your gear dry. The main compartments open wide for easy access and there is also an internal pocket that will protect your valuables. R750, nike.com
