Are you a man? Do you carry a “MURSE”?
I was watching Nightline the other evening and they had a clip on men who carry a bag similar to a purse…called a murse.
I’ve seen guys, including myself, carrying these “man-bags” for years on the gym floor, especially during my time I was working at Bally Fitness in Hollywood.
Some of these bags look classy, made of smooth leather. Some have a canvas feel to it or a blend of several fabrics. Most are compact and durable, big enough to carry Blackberry or large PDA and some change.
Most guys carry them over their shoulder or come with a belt strap and worn similar to a fanny pack. I use one with a handle, similar to this:
If you carry one to the gym, pack it with the right gear for a great workout experience.
Here is what I suggest you carry:
Notepad and pen (for notes or your workout journal)
Small towel
Pair of workout gloves
Workout straps or lifting hooks
Cell phone (though I prefer to leave this in the car)
Your wallet or a few bucks (just incase you need to grab a protein bar or drink at the gym shop)
Your Gym ID and driver license, locker keys etc.
Make sure you keep you murse closeby when you do your exercise. I prefer to carry it around with me from station to station…you can easily forget where you last left it.
So lighten those pockets and go ahead and carry a manly murse instead!
Make it a great day,

P.S. This guy’s fashion beat with a murse started it all...
