    Default Workout Gear


    Recently I've been doing a lot of running to get into shape. I'm leaving for basic training for the Air Force September 20th. Today I tried using CardioTrainer to track my running. The app worked great but I had no way to hold the phone. I literally had to hold the phone in my hand. I'm wondering if there are any good armbands for the Nexus One and figured other people could share there other workout gear recommendations here as well.

    A little off topic, are you going to Lackland? I'm retired USAF. Don't think there's much for the N1, I had an otter box armband for my retired Ipod Touch and it was nice.

    Yep, I'll be leaving out of Chicago to Lackland on the 21st of September. I'm going into Cyber Systems Operations. Getting nervous/anxious/excited about everything. Its a very weird time in my life right now. I think I'm kind of a special case to because they tried to assign me the wrong job and I had to wait to get assigned again. I've been waiting since November last year. Far too long to let your nerves build. Working out everyday is kind of my coping method.

    I have an iPod touch but, that doesn't have a GPS to track my run. I really don't know what to do with the old thing actually. I'll probably try to sell it I guess.

    I got the Arkon armband Doyer posted for my EVO to listen to music while I'm working on my guns. Works great, and is even adjustable enough to fit my developed biceps. You can even use the touchscreen through the plastic window. Great recommendation.
