Best Belt Bag for Exercise & The Gym

Written by Connor Bringas on May 17, 2024.

Whether you’re hitting the gym, going for a run, meeting up with mom friends at the park, or going to a workout class, you probably have some belongings you need to take with you. A belt bag or fanny pack is a convenient way to store your things while working out, or just on the go. Trying to imagine how it works or what you might want to bring? Read on as we paint the picture of wearing a belt bag during exercise. We’ll review details such as the size and features to consider and the best belt bag for working out, The Pack. Featuring plenty of room, durable design and materials, a hideable water bottle holder, zippered storage pockets, and more, The Pack is an unbeatable player in the belt bag space.

How to Choose an Exercise Fitness Belt Bag

Can you wear a fanny pack while working out at the gym?

Fanny packs are incredibly versatile and can absolutely be worn at the gym. With your focus on your workout, it can be distracting to worry about your personal belongings. Some of us carry a backpack but are forced to leave it unattended from time to time. Some of us stuff our pockets and empty them by or on the machines or weights, leaving our valuables vulnerable to being taken. But, there’s a better way to keep the things you need close and safe while working out at the gym. That’s right, a belt bag or fanny pack. 

There are some belongings, like your phone, keys, earbuds, and wallet, that you might not want to keep in a locker. Or, you might need one of these items to support your workout, like your phone or resistance bands. With a spacious fanny pack that’s just the right fit, you can store your things securely without your bag interrupting your workout. Belt bags or fanny packs can be worn crossbody or around the waist or hips, so you can choose the right style based on your workout. The Pack has an adjustable strap (up to 60 inches), making it easier to wear crossbody or around your waist or hips for the most convenient fit. With a hideable water bottle holder, you can also carry your water bottle from station to station while keeping your hands free or full with other things like your equipment. 

Is a belt bag good for running?

Some belt bags are designed for running and are often referred to as running belts. Typically, these belt bags are thin and lightweight, designed to store the basic essentials such as your phone, a few cards or cash, a car key, and so forth. A belt bag can keep your things safe and your hands and pockets empty while running. So, how do you find just the right belt bag for running? And what’s the difference between a running belt and a fanny pack? 

To start, you may try a few belt bags for running until you find the right one. If you’re a runner looking for a belt bag exclusively for running, searching for a belt bag for running can help narrow your options. Most running belts are more compact than fanny packs, and usually offer more flexibility for running, too. Some runners prefer a smaller belt bag while running, while others may prefer a larger one with more convenience and storage. 

The length of your run can influence how much you need to keep on hand. For example, if you’re going a mile or so, you may not stop for a water break. However, if you’re going for a five-mile run, you may need to stop to hydrate, apply sunscreen, stretch out cramps, or eat a quick snack, so you may need a bigger belt bag to store all your things. 

The Pack offers ample storage and convenient features like zippered pockets on the front and back of the exterior, an elastic strap for keys, a hideable water bottle holder, and much more. The Pack is ready for any adventure, and it’s designed to make sure you’re ready, too. 

How to wear a belt bag to exercise

Belt bags can be worn around the waist or hips or crossbody for exercise or everyday wear. When exercising, how you choose to wear a belt bag is up to you. You may want to consider the exercise(s) you’re doing and what might be most convenient. With The Pack’s adjustable strap that glides with ease, you can switch up how you wear it in seconds. 

How do I choose a belt bag for exercise? What to consider

Our main priority while exercising is to feel good and ready to put in the work—and looking good can be part of that! Belt bags can help us feel good and look good while being prepared to focus on a workout. As you shop for just the right belt bag, here are some things to consider. 

  • Type of exercise activity: Gym workouts can call for more things than you may need to hit a local exercise class, just as going for a long run can call for a lighter belt bag than one for strength training at the gym. If you’re hitting the gym, you may want to bring your resistance bands, gloves, hand sanitizer or wipes, car keys, cell phone, water, and more. The Pack is equipped with zippered storage pockets on the front and back, which are ideal for things you need quick access to. It also features an interior zippered pocket to store everything else. As for your water bottle, just pop it into the hideable water bottle holder and carry it with ease.

  • Comfort: Comfort is important at all times. Your belt bag of choice should fit comfortably and be adjusted to fit your body just right. The Pack features a padded strap, lightweight design, and adjustable strap (up to 60 inches) so you can wear it comfortably all day.

  • Size and space: A versatile belt bag can be used for workouts and everyday life. When choosing a belt bag you intend to use for working out, you’ll want to ensure it has adequate storage and features. Who knows, you may even find belt bags like The Pack with features you didn’t consider, such as a hideable water bottle holder. 

What to carry in a belt bag for exercise and trips to the gym

The type of exercise you’re planning for can influence what you might want to bring and keep on you during your workout. The Pack offers functionality and style, all in one, with no shortage of space to store your things. Here are some things you might want to carry in a belt bag for exercise and gym days. 

  • Gloves
  • Resistance bands 
  • Ankle straps
  • Water
  • Headphones
  • Cell phone
  • Car keys
  • Hand sanitizer and or wipes 
  • Chapstick 
  • Hand lotion
  • Protein bar
  • Sweat towel
