Really interesting seeing an American perspective about this. I've never had to worry about collars or cable handles which apparentely is a thing in US gyms? Here in The Netherlands, and I suppose the majority of Europe (?) these things are the most basic things that are always present at commercial and private gyms. Foam rollers are not that common, but not an uncommen thing to find in gyms either.

[@bluepurplepink]

They are usually present but they are sometimes worn out or loose.

[@dappernecromancer5364]

Yeah, what BluePurplePink said. They'll be there, but there's no guarantee that they'll be in good condition. Or even available if someone else is using another cable

[@jlammetje]

Cable handles are sometimes hard to find in my gym (NL as well), but collars are always available, basically enough for every barbell in the gym.

[@alainkovacs2007]

I live in Denmark and here in my local gym (which is part of a big national chain) there is everything you mentioned, in a decent condition. As far as I know it is not even allowed to bring your own equipment to the gym (apart from towel, water bottle, gloves and I would say other really personal things). I guess that the reason for this would be people considering something their own and taking it home with them :)) So the gym provides everything you need, and you don't need to bring anything. I would probably not even go to the gym if I had to bring half of the gym with me from home...

[@FrankZen]

Back in the day I ended up buying my own because they were really loose at my gym. Now I'm in a home gym so not as much of a factor.

[@mrswitbooi]

I have a small spray bottle with rubbing alcohol to sanitise equipment and as an alternative for chalk for better grip especially on kettlebells. Soft surgical paper tape to prevent calluses from ripping. All except belts, sleeves and wraps are found in our gyms as standard although some gyms have lifting belts.

[@majoraustininskeep5086]

I keep a wrist roller in my bag. It's a phenomenal piece of equipment for developing forearm & grip strength and (in my experience) extremely few gyms have them.

[@porkchop3989]

I would say microplates are the most important for me, not all gyms have 2.5 LBS/ 1kg plates

[@pickleyeet8844]

I even got some 0.5kg plates recently and they're brilliant for prog overload on lat raises, wrist extensions, and rotator cuff work.

[@luminous9777]

I love these videos so much a amazing mix of both educational value and entertainment. You’ve helped me understand so much starting out including supplements and how to train, please keep up the work!

[@mikehawk3472]

Climbing straps(a loop of strong fabric, not grip assistance/lifting straps) and carabiners for adding weights on hanging exercises. They can also be used to convert the lat pulldown bar into a neutral grip, as extensions on the rope handles to improve the pull angle on face pulls, to anchor resistance bands on different objects without damaging the bands, or just a slightly awkward substitute for handles if the ones provided by the gym are all in use. Also CHALK CHALK CHALK! There is no reason to use lifting straps or gloves to assist your grip if you havent tried using chalk first. If your 1rm deadlift is beyond what your hand strength can hold, go for it. But dont use them as a crutch when you dont need them, it just keeps your hands weak for absolutely no reason.

[@Rip0scarBlack]

microweights to get exactly the weight you want on the bar. I usually only go down to 2.5lb increments (1.25lbs per side of the barbell), but I could do 0.5lb increments if I really wanted to.

[@ktzalpha]

Really odd seeing this because I get the feeling this may be an American thing. I literally go to the gym with a small hand towel (to wipe my perspiration off of equipment and myself), earphones, my phone and my water bottle. Every one of the items mentioned in this list (excluding the bonus menthol rub) is freely available in every commercial gym I've trained in and are also usually very easy to find. It has never crossed my mind that I'd ever need to (or could) buy my own collars. This obviously doesn't include apartment building gyms as these are usually fitted with the bare minimum in terms of equipment.

[@kbak7852]

I can aknowledge a difference between chalk and gloves but I still prefer good lether, fingerless gloves that don't limit the feeling but support the grip. Some cushioning from the material also helps with pullups. Then your own small workout towel is also advised to avoid eye flooding during the sets.

[@Jackson-hw3en]

You trying to keep your hands soft to give hjs to your bf?

[@vincentlee7359]

If you are in USA: Don't forget your Freedom tool (Gun). That is also a must have for any gym goer.

[@Npc1488-wc1kf]

Yes

[@Jaypc06]

4 sets of freedom till failure.

[@BBoyFury]

I’m a big fan of menthol rubs right under my nose, thought I was the only one. It’s like a milder but persistent version of the ammonia salts, which hit harder but fade fast. I particularly like it for strongman events that involve a timed or multi-lift component.

[@carlpacquing2575]

I always have small weight plates for microloading, like 2.5 lb plates. It's not a problem with my current gym, but some of the ones I've been to in the past didn't have very many.

[@cloy1785]

I’d recommend a lacrosse ball rather than a tennis ball. Tennis balls collapse under pressure so you’ll get a lot more out of it

[@noahmidgette3943]

Liquid chalk is something I can't recommend enough. It saves on a mess a lot too. I plan on getting some knee sleeves this summer. Any good bang for your buck recommendations?

idk about y'all but bringing cable handles is like bringing dumbbells to the gym

[@mr.jds-_-]

My gym bag has a lifting belt, gloves, 2 muscle rubs, knee bands, a jump rope, deodorant, cologne, ear buds, an empty water bottle and mints. Sometimes I carry an extra shoe in case there's rain so that my lifting shoe won't get wet. The sole is flat and relatively thin so if the floor is wet, water might wet the inside of the shoes from the sides.

[@roymustang08]

lifting gear... LEGAL lifting gear lol

[@WarDragonsTRDEMIRCAN]

[@IanHeydecke]

Liquid chalk, Ready to go funnels (to hold my supplements). I carry most of the stuff you have in your bag

[@chriskent3286]

Plus some climbing rope and a carabiner - few simple knots and youve got yourself a way to hang weights off your belt for weighted pull ups.

[@lufox0148]

I generally chew a piece of raw ginger on my way to the gym to get a little pump and might even swallow it if too sleepy.

[@bigpicturegains]

More advanced, but I bring yoga balance pads. Place them behind me to get a bigger stretch on pressing & fly machines. More stretch is scientifically known to improve gains 💪

Funny, nearly everything on that list is available in all gyms I visited in Germany, even lifting belts. Chalk or liquid chalk is rare. Is this a US thing?

[@blcrsn]

A lot of the barbells here have their grip worn down so chalk or straps help a lot when gripping them

[@mikehawk3472]

Chalk is typically only provided at the more hardcore gyms with tons of free weights and fewer machines. Some of the more casual gyms dont allow it at all. Wrist straps are nothing but a crutch, use chalk first.
