Here are the ten best fashionable accessories to wear the next time you visit the gym. 

10 Best Fitness Jewelry Products


1. Apple Watch Bands

With the Apple Watch, you can set goals, track your progress, and measure calories. You can even watch your steps per minute and track your heart rate.

Wearable tech is popular at the gym because its designed to take your workouts to the next level. Unfortunately, it's not always stylish.

Are you disappointed with the original bands? You can switch them up with something more exciting or sleek.

Go traditional and classy with a leather band or opt for a silicone band in your favorite color. You can even match your workout clothes to the color of your watch.


2. Fibit Bracelets

Depending on the version you have, a Fitbit can track your steps, sleep patterns, heart rate, and more. It's also water resistant, making it a good accessory for the gym or swimming pool.

Like the Apple Watch, the Fitbit is wearable tech that you can customize. Moving beyond the traditional silicone bands, there are now stainless steel and designer options to choose.

Keep in mind you'll be sweating, so the sport styles or paracord designs are best for exercise.


3. Barbell Necklaces

If you're looking for a necklace that's both fun and stylish, finish off your outfit with a barbell necklace. Gym-themed charms are super popular when it comes to workout jewelry.

These fitting charms look great whether you're lifting weights or hitting the elliptical. Smaller charms are also less likely to get in the way while you run or stretch.


4. Motivational Cuff Bracelets

Cuff bracelets are great because they're both light and decorative. Not only are these bracelets comfortable, but they don't bang against your wrist when you're working out.

For an extra boost of motivation, get a bracelet with a motivational word or phrase on it. It can be as simple as "Mind over matter" or "Strong", whatever resonates with you. Sometimes you can even customize what your bracelet says.

Not only do these look fantastic while you're working out, but you can wear them outside the gym as well. Plus, you can gain even more inspiration by listening to fitness radio podcasts.


5. Tennis Bracelets

If you want to look glamorous in the gym, you can't go wrong with a tennis bracelet. Diamond tennis bracelet history goes back over a hundred years. These diamond-studded pieces became known as tennis bracelets after a mishap at the U.S. Open. 

Diamond tennis bracelets are expensive, so if you wear one to the gym make sure it has a safety clasp. A tennis bracelet is a chic accessory that can take your workout outfit to the next level.


6. Braided and Corded Jewelry

Braided jewelry made with nylon, leather, or hemp is both durable and casual. Depending on the material, most of this gym jewelry can get wet so you can wear it while working out, swimming, or hitting the showers.

If you add charms or beads, you can add extra glitz and style to your workout bracelets or necklaces. Since this style of jewelry is lightweight, you can wear it doing almost anything including workout video routines at home.


7. Weight Loss Goal Charms

Are you trying to lose weight and get in shape? Keep track of your journey with weight loss goal charms. Each charm marks five or ten pounds, all the way up to your weight loss goal.

Whatever your number is, remind yourself of how far you've come. This is also a great conversation starter at the gym. You can attach the charms to either a bracelet or a necklace, depending on what you like best.


8. Natural Stone

Whether you believe in the healing power of gemstones or not, many people wear natural stone jewelry because it looks and feels good against the skin. Plus, the color possibilities are almost endless. You can always match your jewelry to your workout outfit.

Natural stone jewelry can also look casual or elegant depending on the stone and design you wear. Always make sure to clean your jewelry well afterwards and remember not all stones can be soaked in water.


9. Dog Tag Jewelry

No, not the kind worn by your pets but the identification tags made popular by the military. This kind of jewelry has been popular for years, and it can be stamped with any type of design.

Personalize your jewelry with a favorite quote or power words that motivate you. While dog tag jewelry is usually casual, they can also have crystals or gemstones for a glam look.


10. Weight Plate Charms

Similar to the barbell jewelry, this workout-themed charm resembles a weight plate. Both fun and fitting for the gym, you can put these on earrings, a bracelet, or a necklace.

Combine this charm with other workout-themed pieces to create your own unique necklace. Fitness is more than a hobby to a lot of people. Let the world know that you're passionate about getting healthy.


Hit the Gym in Style with Fitness Jewelry

Who said you needed to sacrifice style to workout? Fitness jewelry makes a statement and looks amazing, too.
