Choosing a gym water bottle is so easy after you read this article
For many, going to the gym has become routine. One of their most essential items to bring along is a gym water bottle. Given a variety of water bottles in the market, it's important to pick up the right one as each person may require a specific size, not to mention the shape and the material. Based on the personal training intensity and our personal taste, we could consider the following points in choosing the right gym water bottle.
The size of the gym water bottle
It's important to choose the right size of the water bottle for our gym workout
The suitable size of a water bottle for those who usually do moderate intensity exercises of between 30 minutes and an hour at the gym would be 500 ml to 1 liter. People with larger bodies, or doing high intensity exercises would need more. For them, the best gym water bottle should be able to hold 1.5 - 3.0 liters. Among personal water bottles, the 3-liter size is the biggest for a normal person to hold and drink directly without a cup.
The shape of the bottle
Gym water bottles come in different shapes
The water bottle should be in the shape that can fit in our bag for other gym wear so that we don’t have to worry about forgetting it elsewhere. If the 3-liter bottle is too big to fit in, it should contain a hanger or handle for us to hand-carry.
We sweat during the training, so do our hands. Thus, it’s important that the bottle body or handle is rough enough to avoid being slippery. Some bottles are not rough but the body shape is designed to support the wet hand holding.
We should notice the cap or lid type too. It should be easy to open once we are too tired for the workout and can be mad if we have to be stuck with the bottle just to get water. Some bottle caps are designed for users to open and drink just with one hand pressing a button.
The material of the bottle
Plastic

If you love the lightness, a plastic water bottle is simply the best. Make sure to buy one which is made of high-quality food-grade plastic because the low-quality one will have its shape deformed and release toxic chemicals when exposed to hot water.
Glass
A glass gym water bottle can retain well the taste of the beverage
If we consider the taste of the drink important, a glass water bottle is the best option. A glass bottle won’t change the taste of the drink no matter if it is hot or cold. The original taste is retained thoroughly so the glass bottle is suitable for holding colored or flavored drinks. However, given its fragility, we should use it with caution.
Stainless steel
Stainless steel gym water bottles are the most durable, yet the heaviest ones
Finally, stainless steel water bottles are for careless people or even the clumsy ones because this material is so durable that the bottle can fall dozens of times while remaining intact. But it’s heavier than plastic and glass, a factor we should consider before buying.
