What’s In My Gym Bag? featuring ATL Trainer Jamaal Shields
Below are my favorite items I keep in my gym bag at all times. As a personal trainer, I need to always prepared and ready to get my work on. Let’s dive in:
Jump Rope
One of my favorite forms of cardio! Can bring it with you anywhere you go and so many different ways to put it to use.

Can’t get through a workout without some dope music! Whether you’re hitting a bag, sprints on a treadmill, or even a brisk walk around the city, a little rap will carry you to new heights

Top of the line vibrating foam roller that helps with recovery. I don’t go anywhere without it.

Try you’re best to eat as clean and as often as you can (stay away from processed foods!)
If you’re looking to burn off some extra calories this winter and get into bikini/board shorts shape by summer, come see me at Barry’s Bootcamp! Fun, intense and effective!
