The right gym accessories can transform your training experience. From shakers and straps to socks and supports, these essentials help you train more effectively, stay organised, and recover better between sessions.

Myprotein's range of training accessories covers everything you need for a well-equipped gym bag. Whether you're mixing post-workout protein, protecting your hands during heavy lifts, or keeping your kit fresh, quality accessories make the difference between a good session and a great one.

Who Should Try These

Fitness accessories suit anyone who trains regularly, whether you're lifting weights, running, doing CrossFit, or following home workouts. From complete beginners setting up their first gym bag to experienced athletes who know that small details matter, the right accessories support better training habits.

These products work particularly well for people who mix shakes regularly, train with heavy weights, or want to keep their workout gear organised and hygienic. If you're serious about training, having proper accessories isn't optional – it's part of showing up prepared.

When to Use Training Accessories

Shakers come into their own immediately after training, when you need to mix protein powder quickly and cleanly. Lifting straps matter most during heavy pull exercises like deadlifts and rows, where grip strength might limit your performance before your target muscles are fully worked.

Training socks and other clothing accessories should be part of every session – fresh, supportive gear helps you move better and stay comfortable throughout your workout. Keep your gym bag stocked with the essentials so you're never caught without what you need.

Training Accessories Benefits

Better Preparation

Having the right accessories means you're always ready to train. Quality shakers let you mix protein powder smoothly without lumps, while proper gym bags keep everything organised and accessible.

Enhanced Training Sessions

Lifting straps allow you to focus on working your back and shoulders without grip strength becoming the limiting factor. This means you can push harder on the muscles you're actually trying to develop.

Improved Hygiene and Organisation

Fresh training socks and clean shakers aren't just about comfort – they're about maintaining standards. Proper accessories help you keep your gym kit hygienic and your training routine consistent.

Long-Term Value

Quality gym accessories last for years when properly maintained. Investing in durable shakers, straps, and clothing means you won't need constant replacements, making them genuinely cost-effective additions to your training setup.

FAQs

What are training accessories?

Training accessories are practical items that support your workout routine. This includes shakers for mixing protein powder, lifting straps for enhanced grip during heavy pulls, gym socks for comfort and hygiene, and various other products that help you train more effectively.

Why do I need a protein shaker?

A protein shaker lets you mix powder supplements quickly and smoothly, eliminating lumps and making it easy to consume protein immediately after training. The built-in mixing mechanism – usually a ball or mesh insert – ensures consistent texture every time.

Quality shakers feature leak-proof lids and measurement markers, making them practical for use at the gym, at work, or while travelling. They're an essential piece of kit for anyone who regularly takes protein powder.

How do lifting straps help my training?

Lifting straps wrap around the bar and your wrists, providing extra grip support during heavy pulling exercises. This allows you to focus on working your back, shoulders, and legs without grip strength becoming the limiting factor.

They're particularly useful for deadlifts, rows, and shrugs when you're lifting weights that challenge your target muscles but exceed your grip capacity. Many advanced lifters consider straps essential for maximising training volume on pulling movements.

What's the difference between standard and mini shakers?

Standard shakers typically hold 600-700ml, providing enough capacity for larger protein servings or meal replacement shakes. Mini shakers around 400ml work well for single-scoop servings and fit more easily into bags and cup holders.

Both sizes use the same mixing technology – choose based on your typical serving size and portability needs. Many people own both, using the mini version for convenience and the standard size for post-workout shakes.

How often should I replace my gym accessories?

Replace shakers when they develop cracks, persistent odours that won't wash out, or damaged seals. Quality shakers can last years with proper care – wash them thoroughly after each use and let them dry completely.

Lifting straps need replacing when the material shows significant wear, fraying, or loss of grip. Training socks should be replaced when they lose elasticity or develop holes, just like regular socks.

Can beginners use lifting straps?

Yes, though it's worth developing natural grip strength first. Many trainers recommend learning proper form without straps initially, then introducing them once you're lifting weights heavy enough that grip becomes the limiting factor before your target muscles are fully worked.

Straps become increasingly valuable as you progress and start handling heavier loads. They're a tool for enhanced training, not a replacement for developing foundational strength.

How do I clean and maintain my shaker?

Rinse your shaker immediately after use to prevent protein residue from drying and creating odours. Wash it thoroughly with warm soapy water, paying attention to the lid threads and mixing mechanism.

Let all parts air dry completely before reassembling. Many shakers are dishwasher-safe, but check the manufacturer's guidance. Periodically soaking in bicarbonate of soda solution helps eliminate stubborn odours.

What makes quality gym accessories worth the investment?

Durable accessories last significantly longer than cheap alternatives. A quality shaker won't crack, leak, or retain odours after a few months. Properly padded lifting straps protect your wrists and maintain grip over hundreds of training sessions.

The small price difference between basic and quality accessories is quickly justified when you consider how long they last and how much more effective they make your training routine.

Who developed Myprotein's training accessories?

Myprotein's expert team designs these accessories with input from athletes and regular gym-goers. Each product is developed to solve real training needs, from leak-proof shaker seals to properly padded lifting straps that won't dig into your wrists.

The range reflects years of feedback from the fitness community, ensuring that every accessory delivers practical value for actual training situations.

Which accessories should I buy first?

Start with a quality shaker if you're taking protein powder – it's the most frequently used accessory in any gym bag. From there, add lifting straps if you're training with heavy weights and your grip limits your pulling exercises.

Fresh training socks and proper gym clothing follow as your training becomes more regular. Build your accessory collection gradually based on what you actually need for your specific training style.
