Hey, babes! 👋🏼 I have all the links to everything in the description! ❓What else would you recommend bringing to the gym/your other gym essentials?? Wishing you a wonderful new year! ❤️✨

[@chemicalclowns]

I recommend a towel! A basic one to throw over ur shoulders to wipe your face during or after your workout

[@naomikong]

@@chemicalclowns YES. Also an essential! 🙌🏼

[@Msmarlene0619]

A lock for a locker!

[@missscarlet7902]

@@naomikong do most people not shower or change clothes when you're done working out? I've seen lots of gym bag videos and rarely do they include a change of clothes, or things for a shower. I'm a person that hates sweating so I couldn't imagine staying in the same clothes or not getting a shower directly after lol. But I don't want people looking at me like I'm weird for showing at the gym 🤣

[@naomikong]

@@missscarlet7902 In my experience, I typically see most people to go home right after their workout without showering at the gym, but that’s also what the showers at the gym are for-showering! There’s no right or wrong! Do whatever works best for you. 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@aaliyakhan5370]

I really appreciate that Naomi tries to make the gym accessible for people, especially for women because the gym really is a such dude-heavy space

[@naomikong]

Appreciate you, too, babe! Thank you! 😩❤️🙌🏼

[@jasminewhelan]

I completely agree, I went today to a new gym for the first time and it was all men except one woman. I went and worked out next to her lol

@@danacernei4834 I’ve been to two gyms that didn’t have them but it definitely depends on the gym you go to

[@claireerodriguez3533]

Just found this channel! Love it! I really appreciate you making these videos for ppl like me who want to work out but don't know where to even start and how to navigate the gym without feeling stupid🤣😂

[@naomikong]

Awh, so happy to help, babe! Thank you! ☺️🙏🏼

[@absolutewarrior4253]

Slippers for showers, towel to wipe your face, all in one shower gel because carrying multiple cleaning things in your bag take up space and lifting gloves because most gyms equipment is really dirty they don't clean after each person using the equipment. As for gym things straps water bottle and earphones are my usual things.

[@seonona]

Thankyou so much Naomi. 🕉️🌻

[@topeoluwole1904]

Just saw that little comment you made about living in Minnesota and so do I! Small world especially when you’re someone I really look up to❤️

[@kenicke579]

Do people normally carry their gym bag around the gym with them? Or is it proper etiquette to put your backpack in a locker and take things out when you need it?

[@tatianabritton6258]

For etiquette and safety reasons you’re supposed to leave you gym bag in the locker

[@chengchankong]

Can’t wait to add these to my bag! ❤️

[@winglessfairy564]

Sameeee

[@artiyadav9554]

Hii tomorrow is my 1 day at gym I'm so excited 😊

[@naomikong]

Good luck! ✨

[@NekoRen811]

I use a backpack that I used to use for school a few years ago, now its my designated gym bag

[@naomikong]

I did the same for years! 🙌🏼

[@NeliaBedilia]

this was the perfect beginner bag ! this is just how i started lol

[@naomikong]

Yes, same! 🙌🏼

[@nmurdock3153]

I see in this video you are using Cira products. Do you have a preference or noticed a difference between the Cira and IdealLean? Which would you choose?

[@SugarPlumMamas]

I’ve been meaning to get me a good resistant band.

[@chenebotha6132]

Have you ever done a video about excersices with those resistance tubes/resistance bands??

[@naomikong]

Yes! You can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/faPLgKt-fch7hsk

[@breannaj7688]

I always wanted to bring a gym bag but I was always unsure about what to bring. This video helped me a lot, thank you 😊 but do you carry this bag around with you everywhere in the gym or do you put it in a locker and take out your essentials?

[@naomikong]

I do bring it around with me, but most people do leave them in their lockers. ☺️

[@suziebee4240]

I've seen several people carrying their gym bag from machine to machine.

[@sailormoon4289]

Can you please do a kettlebell focused workout? Thanks :) Just suscribed

[@lostheaven21]

do you recommend any brand for weight lifting belts? I am about to purchase my first one but I am not sure which brand o what should I pay attention to...

[@naomikong]

Inzer is a great place to start, but I absolutely LOVE my SBD lever belt and wouldn’t trade it for anything! 🙌🏼

Not Timbs in the gym omg😂😂😂😂

[@phoebemahen5358]

Are those the best headphones to wear to gym ?? I’m looking for headphones that won’t absorb your sweat… If you anyone has any suggestion please let me know :)

[@degisan54]

Hiiii, i just started gym and i used to do some sports and dancing but i feel like my form is shitty in gym. But do i need protein shake for glute growth ?

[@simransingh8856]

You'll need to increase your protein intake for that..and to a certain extent your calorie intake too..in whatever form..if you don't wanna take protein shake then just go for food protein!

[@lililou288]

hello quick question do you use your running shoes also to run outside or just for the gym?

[@naomikong]

I also use them for any activities outside of the gym that require me to be on my feet for a long period of time whether that’s walking or going to the park with my nieces & nephews, etc! 🙌🏼

[@sleepykat9]

My bf advised me to wear flat shoes when it comes to weight lifting (wish he had told me before i bought a pair of brooks running shoes) 😅. Is that why you wear Converse?

[@naomikong]

Yes, exactly why! 🙌🏼 But you’re always welcome to wear whatever feels most comfortable for you. 💕 Feel free to DM me on Instagram (@naomi.kong) if you have any questions! ☺️

[@TheSteph152]

The one thing I’m always unsure about is whether I should bring a towel to wipe down equipment???

[@beekah992]

Maybe some sanitizing wipes? I'm not sure myself just an idea

[@naomikong]

I would say that these days, most gyms will have sanitizing wipes/sanitizing equipment throughout the gym already for you to use, but if you want to bring your own, you definitely could! 🙌🏼

[@sengalive3412]

Don't you sweat into your Bose headphones. I have the same headphones but after sweating into the earpads, they wear off or?

[@naomikong]

I definitely sweat into them, but just wipe them off after every session and I haven’t had a problem after having them for years! 🙌🏼

[@sengalive3412]
