For over a year now, most of us have had to reconfigure our workout routines, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Having the ability to work out wherever you want, and not just in the gym, provides an opportunity to stay consistent, while new surroundings add much inspiration.
With the right travel equipment, you can snag a solid sweat sesh wherever you decide; lacking nothing in your workouts. Whether it’s resistance training or overall conditioning, creating a “gym-in-a-bag” can be a total game-changer.
Here are some ideas to keep your workouts strong wherever you train.

Hand Protection – GloFit Gloves

GloFit gloves are lightweight, breathable, and have a cushioned pad with silica anti-slip points. Their anti-friction construction enhances comfort, durability, and can protect your hands from training abrasions.
