Before going to the gym, a good piece of advice is to pack your bags with all the essentials you need to give you that feeling of refreshment after an awesome workout. There should not be any compromises when preparing for the gym. As men, we need to take every precaution not only to remove the stench of sweat but to also be sure we get rid of disease-causing bacteria and viruses. If you are fortunate enough to have a personal locker, the following essentials or gym locker accessories are things men should have on hand.
-
Dirty Clothes Bag and Shoe Bag
To prevent your sweaty gym attire from contaminating the rest of the content of your gym bag, be sure to pack in a separate bag to store them in. Do the same with your shoes if you have a separate pair to wear outside.
-
Zip Pouch / Zip Bag
Isn’t it just annoying to have all your toiletries just scattered there in your bag? To prevent this you should have a separate pouch to store them in. This will also provide you with easier access to all the showering/cleaning up essential when you are in a rush.
-
All in One Shower Wash
When you’re in a public gym shower you would want to get in and out as soon as possible, that is why getting a product that can get you clean all at ones is something you might want to consider.
-
Portable Shaving Cream / Gel
For easy gym packing, get a travel size of your favourite product and place them in your zip pouch.
-
Disposable Razors
For an easy shave, you will need an effective, light, and disposable razor to get the job done. Look for one that comes with a flex ball for expert countering around your jawline and under your nose.
-
Styling Gel / Wax
To enhance that clean look, you may apply wax or gel unto your locks to keep them in place. You can choose your favourite product when it comes to this, opt-in for a portable and easy to carry one.
-
Deodorant
Of course, after taking your shower you would want to apply in a deodorant else suffer body odour by the end of the day. Avoid aluminium based products as they tend to clog pores, instead go for a natural deodorant that uses the lest ingredients.
-
Powder
We all know how sweaty we all get on our private area after an intense workout. Keep the feeling of stickiness and avoid chafing by applying powder and keep the area dry and fresh.
-
Cologne
Cannot forget about smelling good now, can we? If you are not a fan of bottles breaking or spillage, you can opt-in with a solid cologne. It is easy to use, simply dip your finger into the balm and apply it on the spots you would normally apply your liquid cologne on. Another good place to apply it is on an area where it tends to be warm such as your pulse points, wrists, neck and behind the ears.
-
Flip Flops
Probably one of the most important items you should have to carry with you. You should never go into the men’s locker room without any foot covering and you should, definitely, not go to a public shower area without them either. Doing so could expose you to bacteria or even fungi that may lead to athletes’ foot or any other diseases.
