dorm friendly fitness gearFor all of you college students out there: as you settle into your new dorm room, going to classes, club meetings, and studying, it may seem like there will be no time to get a workout in.

If you’re like me when I was in college, I was never one to get myself over to the gym…as close as it was (oops). Bring the gym to you instead by adding a few exercise items to your room. Try out these easy-to-use workout essentials to help you keep up with your fitness regimen:

This one is for the yoga lovers out there. This item is essential to being a successful yogi, so if you can’t make that class at the gym then you’ll be set to do some exercising in your room.
