The Power of Music for Workouts

Because music can affect your mood, it also affects the way you workout. Just the same as slow, mellow music can put you to sleep, the fast, upbeat music can get you moving. When you think back to the last time you played music while you cleaned the house, did you listen to Jack Johnson or did you have Beyonce playing? Chances are you had something loud and bumping to keep you motivated to clean. 

Smart Armpocket Carry-All

I have been in the market for a new iPhone workout armband so I can easily listen to Pandora or iTunes while I workout. The last one I purchased was a cheap rubber phone case with an elastic band that was not comfortable and the rubber stretched out in no time.

I just so happened to be reading SHAPE magazine and in the holiday gear section they featured the Smart Armpocket. It looked pretty cool so I checked it out on the website: www.armpocket.com. This was just what I was looking for! It has a memory foam like cushion with non-slip technology and pockets to hold my key, credit card, ID, chapstick or whatever...along with holding my phone of course! And the protector was touchscreen. What else is that it is eco-friendly, I was surprised by this.
