Утром я всегда беру дезодорант в спортзал.

Утром is the instrumental singular form of утро and is used in a very common time expression meaning in the morning.

In Russian, some words for parts of the day are often used this way:

• утром = in the morning
• днём = in the daytime / in the afternoon
• вечером = in the evening
• ночью = at night

So here, Утром is not the subject of the sentence. It is acting like an adverb of time.

Yes. По утрам means in the mornings and very clearly emphasizes a repeated habit.

So these are both possible:

• Утром я всегда беру дезодорант в спортзал.
• По утрам я всегда беру дезодорант в спортзал.

The difference is mainly in nuance:

• утром = in the morning
• по утрам = in the mornings, morning after morning

Because the sentence already has всегда (always), the habitual meaning is clear even with утром.

Беру is the present tense of the imperfective verb брать. Russian uses the imperfective present for regular, repeated, habitual actions.

Since the sentence includes всегда (always), a habitual verb is exactly what you want:

• я всегда беру = I always take

By contrast:

• возьму is from the perfective verb взять
• perfective present forms actually refer to the future
• я возьму = I will take

So:

• я всегда беру = I always take
• я возьму = I will take

Yes, беру means I take here.

But many learners notice that in English we often say take with me or bring along, and Russian often makes that explicit with с собой:

• Утром я всегда беру с собой дезодорант в спортзал.

That version can sound a bit more natural because it clearly means I always take deodorant with me to the gym.

Without с собой, the original sentence is still understandable, but с собой often makes the idea more complete.

It is the direct object, so it is in the accusative case. But for masculine inanimate singular nouns, the accusative looks exactly like the nominative.

So:

• nominative: дезодорант
• accusative: дезодорант

No visible change happens.

This is normal for masculine inanimate nouns. Compare:

• Я беру дезодорант. = I take deodorant.

But with a feminine noun, you would often see a change:

• Я беру сумку. = I take a bag.

Because Russian uses:

• в + accusative for motion toward a place
• в + prepositional for location in a place

So:

• в спортзал = to the gym
• в спортзале = in the gym / at the gym

In this sentence, the deodorant is being taken to the gym, so в спортзал is correct.

Compare:

• Я иду в спортзал. = I’m going to the gym.
• Я в спортзале. = I’m at the gym.

Спортзал usually means gym or sports hall.

Depending on context, it can refer to:

• a school gym
• a sports hall
• a workout gym

In everyday translation, gym is usually the best choice.

If someone specifically means a weight-training gym, they might also say:

• тренажёрный зал = weight room / fitness gym

But спортзал is very common and natural.

Yes. Russian often drops subject pronouns when they are clear from the verb ending.

So this is also possible:

• Утром всегда беру дезодорант в спортзал.

Because беру already means I take, the я is not strictly necessary.

Including я can make the sentence slightly clearer, slightly more explicit, or a little more contrastive, but it is not required.

Yes, Russian word order is flexible.

The original order is natural because it starts with a time frame:

• Утром = in the morning

Then comes the subject and the habitual marker:

• я всегда беру = I always take

Other orders are possible, but the emphasis changes a bit. For example:

• Я утром всегда беру дезодорант в спортзал.
  Also possible; slightly more emphasis on I first.

• Я всегда беру дезодорант в спортзал утром.
  Grammatically possible, but less natural in many contexts because the time phrase often comes earlier.

Russian often puts known/background information like time at the beginning.

Russian does not have articles like a, an, or the.

So дезодорант can mean:

• a deodorant
• the deodorant
• just deodorant

And в спортзал can mean:

• to a gym
• to the gym

The exact meaning comes from context, not from an article.

That is very normal in Russian, and learners need to get used to reading definiteness from the situation rather than from a separate word.
