I was just wondering what you guys have found as the easiest way to listen to music, such as it not getting in the way, when you work out. You guys wear fanny pacs or you put your mp3 or cd players in your pocket or whats the deal?

pocket allthough it pulls my sweats down
buy one of those sports tummy packs made for them thats the best idea
some people wear them on a strap on their arms but that looks annoying too

I use a hip sac or fanny pac because it stays out of the way. I listent to a walkman because they don't skip and batteries last longer. Tapes don't scratch either. If I keep it in my pocket, it pulls down my pants or I hit my walkman while doing curls. Or it falls out of my pocket while I'm lying down. The last thing I want to worry about is my walkman, so it sits on my waist in a $2 fanny pack that I've grown to love.

I used to keep it on the floor and just carred it around, (my cord was extra long so I wasn't restricted) but then i guess i lost it cause it's not in my locker anymore

I got one of these at Best Buy and it has worked wonders for me. It clips on to the waist of your pants and is fairly lightweight. Also, I slide my headphones under my t-shirt and pull them out of the collar to ensure that they stay out of my way when lifting.Originally Posted by Tom

pocket is the only thing that works without being annoying. I had a waist clip for my ipod but it kept getting in the way and falling off.Originally Posted by kaoslegend

If my shorts have pockets I just put my iPod in there but if I don't have pockets I place the iPod between my waist and my shorts. I wear boxer briefs so my underwear is tighter than boxers so it has the ability to hold my iPod in place.

Haha I was wondering the same thing.....what's a walkman?lol jkOriginally Posted by WeezTheJuice
I use an armband for my ipod. I hated keeping my ipod in my pocket. It was difficult cause if I stretched any, my cord wasn't long enough so my headphones would fall off.

Best way is to buy a DLO action jacket. It clips to your hip and connect your headphones and run it under your shirt. Its the best way without it being a hindrance.
