It's a call to kickstart exercise routines, but also to revamp your sports gear with stylish pieces - whether it's a fresh start or just a change of scene.
Getting ready for your next gym sesh is about being comfortable as well as looking to upgrade your sports style. Check out our favourite gym essentials to snap up now for when the gyms reopen - because there's nothing wrong with looking and feeling on point.
Sports Bras
It's important to get a supportive sports bra: high-support bras are great for running, but lighter ones are perfect for yoga.
Tops
A colourful gym top can help you to get into an active mood. It can also help to cover (or highlight) those arms you've been working on.
Trainers
A comfortable pair of trainers is a must in your gym kit. If you don't wear appropriate footwear when working out you might risk an injury.
Water Bottles
A water bottle is where you can really express your individual style. Think floral and marble patterns, or a classic bold Chilly's.
Headphones
Any workout is better with the right soundtrack. Get a pair of comfortable gym headphones to keep you motivated for longer.
Fitness Trackers
With an array of fitness trackers available, choose the one that reflects your style the most and has all the functions you need. There are also plenty of budget-friendly options available.
Gym Bags
Get a gym bag that does both: look stylish as well as being spacious enough to fit all your gym kit in it.
