Holidays are the perfect time to relax, unwind and forget about the stresses of everyday life. However, just because you're on holiday doesn't mean you have to completely neglect your fitness routine - in fact it can be a great way to feel good no matter where you are in the world. Here are some of our favourite must-packs to help find your fitness:

1 La Pochette Resistance Bands

3 La Pochette’s Whenever Wherever Workout Mat

Whether you are a yoga or barre junkie, this is a must-have for any adventure. Lightweight and able to fold up to fit into your suitcase, yet still big enough to use at the hotel gym or beachside yoga class. This mat is the best of both worlds - limbering up has never looked so luxe.

4 La Pochette’s Wet Bag in Ox Blood Rose – Large

You can't beat the hotel pool when it comes to a chilling out session, soaking up the sunshine, listening to a great podcast, or reading a ‘can't put down, just another page’ book. However fun laying entirely horizontal can be, try squeezing in a pre- breakfast full body workout with a swim. Not only will a few lengths boost your metabolism, but it will also help to get you ready for the day ahead. Of course, remember to pack your Wet Bag. Our signature fabric is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles, machine washable at low temperatures - a sustainable and more practical alternative to single use plastic bags dispensed in swimming pools and spas.

5 Barre Ball

Not only is it easy to pack in your luggage, but a barre ball can also provide you with a great workout while you're away from home. The ball is used to add resistance and instability to exercises, which helps to engage your core and improve your balance.
