Antimicrobial Shirt: 7 Gym Essentials

The days of heading to the gym in nothing but your plain cotton t shirt with yellow pit-stains is over!

Here are 7 gym essentials that will provide both added style and performance to your next workout.

1) iPod/mp3 Player Holder

Are you still carrying your mp3 player in your pocket? If you are, get an arm band iPod holder that will keep the headphone wires out of your way.

2) Sport Headphones

When you’re running and moving around at the gym, make sure to get a pair of sport headphones that go around the ears to prevent the headphones from slipping out.

3) Performance Socks

Nothing is worse than a sticky, sweaty sock. Go for a breathable pair with wicking technology to keep your feet dry and stink-free. Some can also support your arch and absorb shock for maximum performance.

4) Heart Rate Monitor

Heart rate monitors can be a bit intimidating at first, so if you’re not training for an Ironman its best to keep things simple. These devices can quickly tell you how many calories you burned and also tells you when your fitness is improving based on your heart rate.

5) Lightweight Duffel

When your’e carrying all your “stuff” (sneakers, towels, water, etc.) it’s best to have a duffel that’s light and compact. Also, look for ones that have lots of pockets to help you stay organized.
