<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The reason is pretty simple. When you carry something in your hands, even something small like a water bottle, your body can get a little off balance, allowing for less natural movement. \u201cHands-free is always the best option for stability,&#8221; Gatlin says. &#8220;The arms provide natural balance and allow the body to move naturally.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Hands-free walking is the best way to walk.&#8221; \u2014April Gatlin<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Not having to hold anything also allows you to better focus on your stride. You can pay attention to the terrain to avoid falls, or ensure you\u2019re moving your arms for an intentional power walk. \u201cFree arms help with mobility and stability, providing balance to the body,\u201d says Gatlin.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the ease of carrying your water also, well, makes you more likely to actually carry water with you. \u201cIt&#8217;s a great reminder to have the water bottle in view as much as possible to aid with daily water intake,\u201d Gatlin says.<\/p>\n<p>The HydroBag not only keeps your water bottle out of your hands, it also allows you to safely and comfortably store a few essentials like your phone, credit cards, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/airpods-pro-second-generation\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/airpods-pro-second-generation\/\">AirPods<\/a> in a couple of sleek zipper compartments that are water resistant to keep everything safe. You could even stash a small snack in there if you&#8217;re crafty. Meanwhile, the two inch\u2013wide strap helps comfortably distribute the bottle&#8217;s weight evenly over your shoulder so it doesn&#8217;t pinch your skin in one particular spot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe company made an item that most people get for a specific function into something beautiful as well,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FWanderFull-Carrier-Quilted-Crossbody-Adjustable%2Fdp%2FB09NCM321P%3Ftag%3Dwgtrx9813-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.wellandgood.com%252Fwanderfull-hydrobag%252F%26asc_source%3Ddirect%26asc_campaign%3Dno-campaign&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fwanderfull-hydrobag%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/WanderFull-Carrier-Quilted-Crossbody-Adjustable\/dp\/B09NCM321P\" data-type=\"affiliateLink\" data-aff-intermediate=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/WanderFull-Carrier-Quilted-Crossbody-Adjustable\/dp\/B09NCM321P?tag=wgtrx9813-20&amp;asc_refurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fwanderfull-hydrobag%2F&amp;asc_source=direct&amp;asc_campaign=no-campaign\">one reviewer<\/a> wrote about the bag, giving it five-star praise. \u201cI got it for festivals because I always like to have water with me, but also like to have my hands free.\u201d Yes, you can use this bag anytime you want to stay hydrated on the go without having to manually carry your water.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s official: Oprah\u2019s fav bag is now our go-to walking companion.
