On Monday, I went to the gym in the afternoon to work out, and I really thought it would be empty since it was mid-day. WRONG. There were lots of people touring the gym, probably as a part of their new year’s resolutions and goals for 2017. I remember the first time I joined a gym, something I thought I would never do. Now I love it!

If you’re joining a gym for the first time this year, having a nice gym bag that is fashionable as well as functional is key especially if you’ll be changing clothes there. Here are 5 gym bags we are loving right now that are all under $50.

#1 – Under Armour Storm Undeniable Backpack Duffle, $49.99. This bag works as both a backpack & a duffle, and comes in a variety of colors. We like this one with the grey and black fatigue pattern and red accents. Buy here.

#2 – Adidas Studio Duffel Bag, $49.99. I mean, it’s floral after all. The perfect gym bag for the girly girl who goes hard but still wants to keep the feminine flair.
