I go to the gym straight after work, so my outfit, tennis shoes, walking sandals in summer, gel seat for bike, water bottle, and wallet all have to fit. Its a beast to stuff into the locker though!<br /> I also have a seperate smaller pool bag for the days I swim-but I found out last night it wasn't big enough to stuff my work clothes + two wet towels to carry home :(<br /> Both those bags live in my car, so I have no good excuse to not work out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995460 Thu, 24 Jan 2019 07:03:43 +0000 Cee 1995460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've heard of gyms...

They call it a yoga bag. I found it at Winners 2 years ago. Fits loads and can double for travel. Because it is a tote - which can fold over- it fits in the gym lockers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995407 Thu, 24 Jan 2019 01:36:49 +0000 Brooklyn 1995407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use a black leather backpack from Ash. It’s starting to fade now from years of sun exposure but I still really like the look of it. It’s just big enough for my gear (with a little cramming). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995389 Thu, 24 Jan 2019 00:09:37 +0000 Style Fan 1995389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I go to a Yoga Studio that has cubbies.&nbsp; I generally don't use a gym bag.&nbsp; I do have a gym bag from the early 90s that is rust and black and is made from some sort of sturdy fabric (obviously).&nbsp; I love that bag and use it for traveling.&nbsp;<br />I have thought of getting a smaller bag to carry around Yoga things like water bottles, etc but so far haven't.&nbsp; Mr SF uses a backpack.&nbsp; I leave a mat at the Yoga Studio. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995386 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 23:38:30 +0000 LaPed 1995386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No gym for me, but during the winter DS and I swim at the pool about once a week. I hung onto some zippered "wet bags" from our cloth diapering days and use those to transport wet swimsuits and towels. I just stuff them in whatever tote bag or backpack I'm carrying that day. Oh -- and I like to use thin cotton Turkish towels for pool days (and beach days!) because they are so low-bulk compared to terry towels. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995377 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 23:06:45 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1995377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have an MZ Wallace mat bag and metro tote that I love. &nbsp;Mine are blue camo. &nbsp;I use the tote nearly every time I travel, as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995366 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 22:42:51 +0000 Suz 1995366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh. I like the one Lisa showed. But it wouldn't fit in the lockers at my gym.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm lucky in that I live really close to my gym and shower at home rather than there. So I just take my old Zara faux-leather knapsack. It fits my water bottle, indoor shoes/socks/ change of clothes (if I wear or bring one) and wallet etc. should I need that. Plus, it's waterproof.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sometimes I have also used my La Pliage.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995346 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 19:23:43 +0000 Cardiff girl 1995346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My gym bag looks a lot like yours except it’s bright pink .l m pretty happy with it .It holds all I need and has 2side pockets for toiletries and the like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995339 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 18:34:20 +0000 Anonymous 1995339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My gym has no lockers; only open cubbies. My DD gave me a roomy handbag that she was getting rid of (never used) and I am able to carry a hand towel, my lifting gloves, head band, bottle of water and that is all I need (I carry my protein shake container in my hand) I live close by so I don't need to change my clothes at the gym, luckily. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995324 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 16:08:02 +0000 cjh 1995324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the exact same problem. Backpack too small for everything especially in winter, and the duffel that everything fits into is either too big for locker or too heavy since I put EVERYTHING in that I could possibly need. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995312 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 15:07:21 +0000 Angie 1995312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't go to gym, but LOVE my yoga studio. No need to schlep anything but my citron yoga mat. Take layers and shoes off inside and shove it all  into a cubby hole.  </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995311 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 14:56:27 +0000 Anonymous 1995311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lockers at my gym are a good size. This is my bag, below. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995305 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 14:10:30 +0000 anne 1995305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My bag us the same backpack I use for cycling to work. It's too big to fit in my gym locker so I leave it out and just put valuables and shoes in the locker. My gym is just for people in the building and the security risk isn't high. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995302 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 14:04:23 +0000 RobinF 1995302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just have a slouchy fabric bag that I use. It fits everything but doesn't look very nice and is kind of hard to put things in because it is so slouchy. But it works for now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995301 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 14:03:03 +0000 Helena 1995301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not a gym girl, but when needed I have a gray canvas backpack I grabbed from Indigo for a steal (I want to say $4 on clearance). It looks neat and holds plenty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-gym-bag#post-1995298 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 13:55:09 +0000 Carla 1995298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do you use to schlep your stuff too and from the gym? Are you happy with it? Could it be better? </p> <p>Below are photos of my gym bags and the usual items I carry. I used to carry the smaller bag (in #1) all the time. It is perfect for swimming and fits easily in a locker, but it never fit a full complement of regular stuff so I couldn't zip it and my stuff spilled over the top. I use a bigger bag (#2) for the regular gym stuff now, but I have to fold, bend, squish, and shove to get it in the locker - and worry it might snag or become abraided. It accepts a full complement of gear - and when I choose to wear my gear to the gym, it accepts a change of clothes and a pair of shoes.</p> <p>Until gyms start making wider lockers, a perfect gym bag is a very elusive HEWI! </p>
