Gyms may be back in action after a long hiatus, but for anyone who has found a new love for workouts beyond those four walls, we’ve got just the equipment that will allow you to take your sweat sessions anywhere you like. Cue PTP’s portable training systems. From resistance bands to recovery rollers, model and boxing instructor @shannon_lawson shares her must-have equipment in her exercise bag, plus, the most important thing she looks for in activewear (hot tip: coverage is key when you’re working out in public!).

What’s your favourite pre-workout snack?
“I’m so basic. I love peanut butter toast with banana slices on top. If I’m feeling extra, I'll add honey.”
What about your ultimate cheat day indulgence?
“I love a glass of wine with chocolate while watching Real Housewives.”

What are your top 5 essentials to keep in your workout kit?
1. A Micro Band kit with a variety of different strengths for my glute/leg exercises
2. A Skipping rope. I have a weighted one to add resistance to my skipping for a full body burn
3. A Superband. I use a medium for deadlifts or upper body
4. A Massage Therapy roller for recovery
5. The Yoga mat and exercise guide to make my workouts more efficient
Why do you like incorporating PTP equipment in your workouts?
“During lockdown I fell in love with the PTP equipment range as I bought so many goodies for my home workouts. I love the premium quality and variety PTP has. My husband has stolen half my equipment because it’s so user friendly and comes in a variety of strengths that we both can use.”

What do you look for in good activewear?
“It has to be squat proof and boobie proof! If my activewear can’t keep up with me then it ruins my workout so quality performing activewear is a must. I need support and the ability for it to feel like skin so I’m not distracted by the pinching and pulling off my garments.”
What motivates you to work out?
“My activewear hahaha. It’s true, if you buy new activewear you really do want to be seen in it and it gives me a kick up the bum to go train.”
