3-21-13 Flipbelt - An awesome product! Review & Giveaway!!

It's no secret, I have lost over 100 pounds....and now I am exercising regularly. This is a new lifestyle for me, and part of it is learning what new products to use with these new activities.

I started walking on my treadmill, which turned into jogging....and now I am hooked. The progression then took me outside....the treadmill just got a little boring.

When running outside, I discovered that I was having a difficult time figuring out how to run and carry my "gear".  I started looking for running clothes with pockets that could hold my cell phone and keys. It is hard to choose running clothes based on a zippered pocket being a "make or break" feature of a running shirt or a pair of running capris.

Then I saw the flipbelt and I thought WOW, that solves all my problems!
 With the Flipbelt, I can wear ANY running shirt and pants....pocket or not!

I contacted flipbelt and they were generous enough to send me one to review. I ordered a nice, bright PINK flipbelt! They come in S. M. L or XL. They have tons of colors and it is exactly what any runner needs to hold cell phone, ipod, gels, car key, money....anything you can think of! There are two front openings and two back openings. You just put your items inside the flipbelt and take off. If you want to "flip" the belt, it locks everything in place, but everything stays in place for me whether I flip it or not.
 
I use it to hold my cell phone and car key when I go on a run. I plug my headphones into my cell phone to play my music. The flipbelt stays in place. There is no jiggling or shifting. The flipbelt is an awesome running accessory! Now I can choose any outfit and then add my flipbelt and I am ready to go running! I am thinking about ordering a few more colors to coordinate with my running outfits!
  I haven't worn it to the gym yet, but I plan on it....with it being flat, you can wear it during all kinds of workouts. I love having my music on me while I train in the gym, this is the perfect answer!

    1. Thanks so much for your review! I hate running with other belts as they shift and ride up the entire time I am running. I feel as if I spend way too much time adjusting the belt during the run. I am ordering a Flipbelt tonight!

    2. I think this is where I'm supposed to leave a comment about my favorite running or workout accessory for the contest? Right now it's my brand new Garmin watch! But I'm sure if I won the flipbelt, it would rate awfully high on the list!
