How many of you carry while you workout and if you carry what do you carry and how ??? I carry in a kydex IWB holster when I workout and use my Keltec P32. I started carrying before the pandemic as Planet Fitness was open 24 hours and I would sometimes workout at odd hours with just a small handful of people in the gym.

Are you talking about a public or private gym and carrying a firearm while working out with other members in the confines of that gym? | |||

Still finding my way |
I carry the majority of the time I'm awake. Exceptions are made though. When I'm jogging, biking, or weight lifting all I have on me is ear buds and my fitness tracker. A pistol or anything else is too cumbersome. I guess if the ninjas choose those times to attack I will have to resort to my superior hand to hand battle techniques. | |||

You need a DE if you are working out amongst great big muscle men.. . | |||

Fighting the good fight |
I work out most of the time at home, so concealed carry isn't an issue. When I work out at a gym, my street clothes and carry gun go into my gym bag after changing into my gym clothes, and my gym bag stays next to me the whole time. | |||

That’s smart, I’ll never trust a gym locker after what happened to my buddy recently. A guy followed him in from the parking lot, told the guy at the desk that he left something in the locker room and was let in, picked my buddies lock and took his car keys, went out to the car and stole the wallet and racked up a big bill. | |||

When I still had a gym membership I did not carry on the floor. I work out at home, now, so it's no longer an issue. "America is at that awkward stage.

Yup, exactly what I do, though I arrive at the gym already dressed for working out. My gym bag is a Maxpedition Octa Versipack. Easily keeps my wallet, keys, pistol, spare mag, liquid chalk, bar clamps, phone...all in one place and right next to me. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

Ignored facts still exist |
My workout consists of swimming, but I'm open to suggestions. . | |||

I carry concealed on my person. Kind of a pain, but I tried carrying it off body, and just did not feel comfortable at all doing that. A snatch and grab could easily be done, now you have to chase someone down and potentially get into a knock down drag out to try and recover your weapon. No thanks. Tony | |||

Glock 43 in a Kavu Belt pack just like any other time I am not wearing a belt. It is nice and flat and hides underneath a tshirt. I have a kydex trigger guard with a string on it the string gets looped around the belt pack strap. To draw I just unzip and a quick pull of the pistol the kydex holster pops off since the loop is connected to the strap. I can easily rotate the back to the front, back, or either side to accommodate whatever exercise I am doing. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad.

Prepared for the Worst, Providing the Best |
Not the gym, but I run and work out daily with an S&W 640 in a Hill People Gear chest rig. It's not the most discrete, but it stays out of the way and lets me carry my gun, phone, wallet and keys on my body without interfering with what I'm doing. | |||

It's been many years since I could run or do the gym. The gym was easy. While the early belly bands were just above garbage, IMO, I carried Smith 37 or 38 in one with a baggy T-shirt. Running was a little harder. My friend and I ran 4.2 miles every evening and 9.8 during the day on Saturday (just happened to be the route we took, not that we picked that distance for any particular reason). I tried the belly band but the darned gun would try to escape and finally, I just gave up and didn't carry when running. In colder weather (this was Fort Myers Florida, so colder is relative, I guess), I tried a garrison belt fastened over my sweat pants, with IWB, and a baggy sweat shirt. Sadly, no joy, so just didn't carry. Bob | |||

Small fanny pack works for me with a G43 with a trigger guard cover on it or my LCR. Works OK and does not get a second glance. A couple of years ago, I found an actual small waterproof waist pack that I used when I went to the beach. I cant recall who made it but it was more splash proof than fully waterproof.

Laugh or Die |
I figure if I ever do, I'll get a weighted vest and take all the weights out, and sew a pocket in for a firearm. Hide it in plain sight, as it were. ________________________________________________ | |||

P365 in gym bag that by my side. Not worried about a grab and go as when I'm at the gym its relatively empty and any 'new' person will really stick out. | |||
