Here's the Gear You Need for Your Next Workout, and It's All Under $25
Let's be real here. Workout gear can get pretty pricey. And when you're trying to stock up on everything you need for your fitness routine—leggings, weights, mats, resistance bands, etc.—it can all add up. While we won't say no to those workout gear splurges (since most of them are expensive for a reason and you're getting quality, long-lasting products), we'll always be down for a deal. Plus, it doesn't mean that these more-affordable finds are crappy quality. Some are just as good as their pricey counterparts.
And because there's nothing better than the thrill of saving some money, we took it upon ourselves to do some research and find affordable workout essentials for your yoga practice. We're talking mats, blocks, towels, leggings, and more under $25. Yes, $25. Take a look at our discoveries below.
Mats
When shopping for yoga essentials, you're going to need to start with a mat, of course. This one is highly rated on Amazon: It has over 14,000 reviews and 4.5 out of 5 stars. And it won't cost you more than $20. It also comes with a handy strap for easy transport. I have this mat at home, and I find it's cushioned enough and has a good, nonslip grip.

Straps
Yoga Towels
Activewear
Water Bottles
There's an autoseal button on the lid of this bottle that prevents spills and leaks. It's also got a spout cover that keeps out dirt and germs.
