What is the best way to bring my iphone with me while working out? Does anyone have any product recommendations? I have somewhat small arms if that helps.

    I didn't like the armband cause it's keep falling off my arm while running; and I tried two different type of armband. They work just fine on my husband but his arms are a bigger. I haven't tried the belt.

    I have an armband made out of neoprene that holds my iPod nano... don't know if they have one for the iPhone. However, they're very stretchy, yet snug and have worked well for me.

    Thanks Angie. That is something I was worried about.

    The armband slipped on me also. I use a running belt that's not specifically made for the phone but it seems to work well. I got my wife a new Ipod nano so she leaves her phone behind and still gets the music and the Nike plus app.

    I have an armband for my xperia. its vecro so you can make it as snug as you need. I use it running and I clip the headphones around my back. Other than that, I would just hold it in my hand when I went for a run.

    I have a Nike armband. It's not specifically for iPhone but it fits in it very snuggly and adjusts quite well. Got it from the Nike outlet but recently saw it in Sports Academy.

    i've tried 3 different kinds of armbands for my iphone and finally had some luck with the last one!! the other 2 fit me at the beginning of my weightloss journey and now, i couldnt get them to stay on my arms even if i'm wearing a hoodie!! (i'm 5' and 115lbs) i've tried the belt thingie and it just bugged the *kitten* outta me while i was running--it kept creeping up and pulling my shirt with it!! anyways, right now i'm using a belkin brand and i love it! :)

    I have an new ipod touch (very similar to the ipod phone) and I got an armband at Best Buy. I have fairly small arms and mine stays pretty snug. Before I had the armband I just either held it (which is quite annoying after an hour or so) or wore pants with pockets.

    I have a running pouch (Nathan is the brand I believe), where I keep snacks, a couple of dollars an ID and my phone. I could put it in there and I wouldn't see a problem.
