I always find that buying some new kit is the best way of getting me motivated to hit the gym, especially if it's been a few months. Somehow a Netflix binge just seems like a much better way to spend a Sunday afternoon - just me?!
Anyway I'm always much more excited to go for a run when i'm sporting a shiny new pair of Nikes or splashed out on a new pair of bluetooth headphones. Workout clothes don't need to be expensive or flashy, just have the right fit, style and fabric for you. Sometimes just a refreshed gym playlist can do the trick! Here's my top buys:
- Nike LunarGlide 7 running shoes
- Bose SoundSport in-ear headphones
- Nike Run Camo Print T-Shirt
- Iffley Road Crew Neck Running T-Shirt
- Athletic Propulsion Labs Jersey Running Shorts
What gets you motivated to hit the gym?

This 100% leather bag is perfect for the office or for school. It includes numerous compartments for storing documents, laptop and anything else you need! It also comes in a variety of sizes from 10 - 18 inches so there's something to suit everyone. Yet another steal from just £24 plus shipping.

I don't know why but I love massive vintage clocks! This one is originally from the 1970s and is 36cm in diameter. Perfect for an office or lounge wall. Ships worldwide from Ukraine.

These are great fun and ideal if you want to show some personality underneath a smart suit or jeans.
