How to Bring Your phone To The Gym Without Breaking It

You know what food blogging has turned me into?

Well, aside from someone who needs approximately eleventy billion refrigerators and more friends who like to eat leftovers, that is?

It’s turned me into someone who is OBSESSED with her cell phone. I mean, I used to be pretty in love with texting. But, that’s about it. I could go for longer than .004 seconds without having my phone AT MY SIDE.

But then not-phone-obsessive Taylor turned into Food-blogger-always-need-to-have-phone-because-what-if-I-get-THE-email-and-I-have-to-respond-RIGHT-NOW. You know that email. The one where you magically win 1 million dollars. Or something like that.

Anyway.

Now I even have to workout WITH MY PHONE. Like, right beside me. Near my feet that could step on it and CRUNCH it at any moment. OR, even worse, I could be doing my most favorite leg day EVER and drop a plate on it when trying to load the bar for my deadlifts.

Pretty sure it would no longer be my most favorite leg day ever then.

BUT, that’s where Corning® Gorilla® Glass 4 comes in. Have you guys heard of this product? It’s a super tough glass cover that helps protect electronic devices.

After my deadlifts I gotta move onto my squats right? Right. BUT how would I know exactly how long to rest between sets without my phone timer? I mean I could just count in my head. BUT, we all know that’s just way too much work.

Which means I’m usually holding my phone in my hand, watching the timer AND trying to set up the squat rack at the SAME TIME. If you know me, you’d know that I rank about -100 on the “graceful” scale so I typically end up dropping something with all that muli-tasking going on. LIKE MY BELOVED PHONE.

Good thing Gorilla Glass 4 helps protect my most favorite little device of technology because it improves protection DRAMATICALLY against drops. YES PLEASE I NEED THAT.

Plus, we all know the kind of music they play at the gym right? AKA: Those annoying tunes that get stuck in your brain ALL DAY LONG, so it’s ULTRA important to tune them out.

With music. Which, SHOCKER, happens to be ON MY PHONE. Seriously, obsessed with that square little cellular device. How did we survive without it?

You may have already guessed that my phone falls out of shirt where I store it (hey, you do what you gotta do to avoid Spice Girls in your noggin’ all day) when I’m bending AT THE HIPS (good form people!) to finish up my super-fun leg day with some Good Mornings.

I mean, Gorilla Glass 4 to the RESCUE. Umm, AGAIN. I think I should just buy its own superhero cape FOR REAL.

Just like phones, how did us fitness-fanatics survive without it?

And I’m okay never really knowing.
