The headline may cause you to think I spend a lot of time on weights. I wish, since weight lifting is instrumental to revving up your metabolism and thus, keeping your own weight in check, but I don’t. This is why when I do weight training, I try to make the most of it. Starting with cardio to build up the heart rate, great music to make it fun and a few helpful tools. And I realized that these two accessories truly help me make the weight-room workout work, so I’d like to share my picks with you!
iPhone Armband
Now there are many on the market – from Belkin, iLuvSports, Memorex, Apple, to name a few. The one I like the most is Yurbuds Ironman iPhone 5 Armband. What makes this one a little better than others is the no-sweat, flexible, lightweight neoprene fabric and adjustable design, which stretches to fit any arm. These phone armbands typically have the sheer cover that allows me to easily find music or select and follow one of the many weight training apps. Another nice feature of this and most other iphone armbands is the little pocket for your locker (or car/home) key. Having the phone and the key on me makes it easier.

Bionic Women’s Fitness Gloves
I’m not at all surprised that these fitness gloves were designed by an orthopedic hand surgeon – you get a great natural feel and they help absorb the sweat, almost as if you are not wearing gloves. The reason I wear mine is not only to protect my hands, but also for extra gripping power. Anatomical relief pads on the lower fingers and palm level the surface of the hand to promote a secure grip. Motion zones over the knuckles and web zones between the fingers provide natural movement and help hands breathe. Wearing these Bionic fitness gloves will be second nature once you try them, and I highly recommend it!
