    Extra bra, knee brace, ankle brace, ponytail holders, deodorant, brush, hairspray, toothbrush and toothpaste, HRM. And $.75 for some odd reason. Plus clean gym clothes.

    I also pack some snack cups of pineapple. Sometimes when I finish working out , I am hungry. Eating the cup of fruit will take the edge off and curb the temptation of passing all those fast food restaurants on the way home.

    I always keep my weight lifting gloves in there with round deodorant balls in them. (Use the deodorant balls; trust me.)

    My HRM, clean socks, an empty plastic sandwich bag, clean towel, sandals and tennis shoes, a travel shower kit, a hoodie... sand. Lots of sand.

    Since i volleyball upwards of six hours a week, i spend so much time outside, I need the hoodie and plastic bag in case of weather (I put my cell phone in the plastic bag if it starts raining, gotta be safe!). I always forget socks, so I keep an emergency pair, and the rest is fairly self explanatory.
