Gym Bag Basics

Gym Bag Basics

Are you ready for your visit to our Portland gym? We want to help you save time and make sure you have everything you need packed up and ready to go as you dash out the door.

Your gym bag should be durable, water resistant, and lightweight — but big enough to carry all of your fitness essentials. Pack in items such as:

  • A comfy exercise outfit like shorts or leggings and a loose fitting, comfortable t-shirt
  • Socks and sneakers — we’ll address the best shoes for your workout in a later blog
  • A refillable water bottle to stay hydrated

Non-essential personal care items that you might want to throw in your bag include shower shoes, deodorant, and a high protein snack (like a bag of almonds or a bar) to refuel your body.

For your convenience, our locker rooms also provide complimentary items such as:

  • Hair elastics to keep hair pulled back while you exercise
  • Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash
  • Q-tips and cotton balls

Club Name in Portland provides hand sanitizer stations throughout the club for your use before and after jumping on/off our equipment.

In case you forget anything, our Pro Shop is open daily and stocks gym bags, apparel, swim caps, protein bars, and more. The Smoothie Bar is also open daily and is a great place where you can recharge and refresh.

You’re ready to rock your workout, so the rest is up to you. Whether you exercise in a group fitness class, our indoor pool, or in the company of a personal trainer, you’ll have everything you need to be comfortable and dressed for success in our Portland gym.
