Accessories

Technology has evolved not only in smartphones, but also in sports accessories. Over the past decade, new inventions have emerged thanks to ingenious processes and the discovery of new materials.

Let’s discover these revolutionary new sports accessories.

1/ The sports belt

You can use an abdominal belt during your workout. There are several models of fanny packs, but be careful to choose one that won't hinder your movements.

Do you need a belt that won't move while you jump, without bouncing your belongings? And do you want to be able to keep your keys, your papers, your phone? The Flipbelt multi-use belt is made for you.

The Flipbelt features multiple pockets for storing your phone, keys, and snacks, and the stretchy material ensures a comfortable, bounce-free fit. You can buy sizes ranging from XS to 2XL to fit your waist size, so you don't have to worry about them slipping.

2/ The armband

Phone armbands allow you to keep your device accessible, whether you're changing playlists or not. With a wireless system and connected earbuds, you can even answer calls while you're exercising.

Another advantage is that their position helps prevent accidental crushing, which could happen if you put the phone behind your back, for example. However, it can hinder your movements if you work your biceps.

3/ The telephone cord

It may not be the best option for sports, but it will do the job for casual use. And it will keep you from having to hold your phone constantly.

You can adjust the length of the cord to keep it as close to your body as possible and secure. By staying at the front, you can keep an eye on it and avoid leaving it on the floor or crushing it by sitting on it.

4/ In the pockets

Most tight-fitting leggings and shorts have small pockets. These are located on the side of the leg or at the waistband. Their size and placement allow you to insert your phone and keep it close to your body during exercise.

Be careful not to inadvertently crush your device when you lie on your back!

5/ In your bra

While shorts can accommodate your phone in the lower back or on the side of your thigh, the space between your shoulder blades is also a good place to store it.

Additionally, the weight distribution is even, unlike when your phone is strapped to your arm. The only drawback is the inconvenience of bending over behind you if you need your phone for some reason. Bras with front pockets eliminate this particular problem.
