Until the invention of FlipBelt, many athletes used fanny packs, phone belt holders and armbands which, while providing the safety of your gadgets, still lack some important thing - universatility. You can't use the same holder for two phones with different screen sizes; it will fit only one of them. Plus, they can't carry several items. With the appearance of the FlipBelt, it's become possible to bring around a lot more essentials. The belt has been tested for its compatibility with the phones:

iPhone 3, 4s, 5s, 6s, 6s plus as well as iPod; 

Galaxy Note 2, 3, 4, 5, Note Edge, Galaxy S3, S4, S5, and S6; 

LG G3, Vista, Lancet, Escape; 

HTC One Max, One Remix, M7, M8, and M9; 

DROID MINI, MAXX, and Turbo.

Thus, you can be sure that it will fit your phone or player perfectly well!

1. This comfortable belt doesn't chafe nor twist due to a soft Velcro.

2. It fits waist sizes up to 43" in girth. Even if you happen to gain a few extra pounds, it will still fit you well due to its excellent adjustability. 

3. 4 elastic straps can securely hold keys, headphones and other small items.

4. Reflectors will make you visible in the dark.

5. Simple minimalistic unisex design. This fitness belt will match any sportswear!

According to the recommendations of the National Athletic Trainers' Association, it's necessary to drink 20-30 ounces before a workout and 20-40 ounces after. During training, you also need to drink 6-8 ounces of liquid every 10-20 minutes. Thus, two bottles that come with Hydration Running Belt will be enough for a 20-60min training. 

Note that if you're exercising longer than 45 minutes or perform weight training, NATA recommends you to drink liquids containing carbs or isotonic energy drinks rich in vitamins and minerals. 

Neoprene is a soft and flexible type of synthetic rubber that is often used for sports gear production, and the Dimok Running Belt is no exception! The manufacturer opted for this material because of its special properties:

- Elasticity and flexibility. Neoprene is light, thick and resistant to tear and wear and deformation. 

- A wide temperature range. The material is both thermal and heat-resistant, and therefore, isn't easy to damage by the weather. 

- Resistance to mechanical and chemical damage. It's almost impossible to tear neoprene, moreover, it's also resistant to a large number of aggressive chemicals.

- Water resistance. Neoprene is waterproof, so it's good for swimwear, wetsuits, phone cases, camera bags, gloves, etc. 

This is a wear-resistant, hypoallergenic and pleasant to touch material, so the belt from neoprene can be comfortably worn over or under your clothing. 

If you are going to run a marathon, you should take some essentials with you, and here is a list of some of them:

1. The documents, including registration and payment for participation, a printed marathon route, a medical certificate and, if necessary, your ID card.

2. Oversleeves which can be worn over the shirt in cool weather and taken off in hot. You can find cheap options that can be simply thrown away after use.

3. The cap with visor protecting from boiling sun and a raincoat in case of rain.

4. The medicine for emergency cases (headaches, injuries, etc.)

5. An MP3 player or a mobile phone with headphones.  (if you can't run with comfort, not listening to music).

6. Sports watches.

7. PowerBank that can charge your phone, player or watch.

8. A bottle of water (choose one from our best sports bottles review) and/or isotonic.

9. The patch, sun screen, gels, wet wipes and other small items for a comfortable race.

As we've already mentioned, the Buddy Pouch is very easy to attach. To do this, you only need:

1. Insert the back flap into the waist band of your clothing (just to the edge of your skirt or trousers).

2. Next, align the back flap with the front flap.

3. Finally, gently press them together to fix in place. That's all!

With the Buddy Pouch, you will have no reason to worry about the safety of your personal belongings. 

For those consumers who love running, we'd recommend to start using a running watch that can tell you of the efficancy of your workouts by tracking your progress. 

We would like to dispel the myth about the damage that magnets cause to credit cards and phones. Practically, this would not even be possible due to the fact that none of the modern gadgets, including flash drives, iPods, etc. contains magnetic elements. GPS performance isn't affected by magnets too as GPS devices work off the satellite signals.

So, what about credit cards? To prove that it's safe to keep credit cards next to the magnets, the manufacturers have conducted an experiment to observe the behaviour of the credit cards and electronic keys put face-to-face with the magnets for three years.  None of the things demagnetized. 

The hotel cards, however, may be prone to damage, and therefore, should be stored separately. 

Since the Sport2People Running Pouch Belt is made of waterproof neoprene and equipped with waterproof zippers, it won't let the moisture in! So, you are welcome to enjoy the benefits of a winter run training! The benefits? Yeah, winter runs can boost your energy, let you stay fit all year round, and strengthen your immune system! However, following some simple rules still would be sensible:

1. Revise and correct your training program: reduce the speed and intensity in winter. Don't panic! You'll burn even more calories running on wet, slick, icy or snow-covered surfaces. 

2. Pick winter trainers with non-slip soles. Plus, special running socks can prevent shifting and keep your feet warm.

3. While running, lower the foot on the surface, from toe to heel. This can slow you down and reduce the risk of falling.

4. Shield your face from biting winds with a balaclava. Hands also need protection, otherwise, you will experience redness and dryness.

5. “There is no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing”, and the layering is a way to go! Wear several layers of garments, one on top of the other. The first layer should be breathable to not make you sweat, while the second one should regulate your body heat. And, of course, the top layer ought to protect you from the elements.

The Sport2People Running Pouch Belt is a great accessory for those who train or just like to walk in the dark, since it's equipped with a special reflective logo and a strip running along the perimeter. However, if you plan to hide the belt under the shirt, it's desirable to wear additional reflective elements on your clothing or footwear. Also, here are some tips how to make your night jogging safer:

• Run against traffic so that you could see approaching cars. 
• Do not listen to loud music in your headphones since you can skip warning sounds. 
• Wear bright clothes. Dark black, gray and brown sportswear might make you almost invisible in the dark. 
• A cap with a visor will come in handy as it can protect your face from branches at nighttime. 
• It's better to run with your partner who can give you due warning on hazards you might not see. Plus, a companion can also give you a helping hand, if the need be.
