I just sold my old 2nd gen nano and bought a nano video and an ipod touch (posting from it now) both are hot as shit, what do you use?
-
Use my 80g ipod. Gets in the way sometimes but its a must at my gym because of the horrible music they play.

I considered that but found it a little large
-
60 gb ipod.

I got a small 512 MB thing from sam's club. It's about the size of a AA battery, maybe a little bigger.
I love the ipods, but they just seem to big and fragile for the gym. I've dropped this thing 1000 times and still works. Cost was like 30 bucks, and it holds 6 CDs worth.

Bingo. I bring a little 40 dollar piece of crap to the gym.
Why fuck up my nice one

zen stone
its super light and holds a lot of songs. if you always have your playlist on random anyway its ideal. you can put it pretty much anywhere and you'll forget its there. also very loud and great sound quality, way better than ipods.

ipod shuffle 1 g

4gb new ipod nano video, enough for workout.
Im not even able to listen all the music loaded, so more than 4gb is like a waste of time.

Creative Vision M (30 gig)

60g ipod

I've got a silver 4GB Nano (not the video one yet) for the gym because the sound level out of the iPhone's headphone jack is nowhere near what it needs to be. The Nano's sound is much louder. But that's the only gripe I have with the iPhone...well, that and the battery life if you're online with it. Sucks it up fast. I can run it down in less than 5-6 hours if I'm really active on it, but I mean that thing must require quite a bit of power to fuel. You've just gotta keep a charger everywhere you're gonna be (home/work) and one in your car.
Only thing is now that I think I'm still gonna have to take both of them into the gym with me because I need the iPhone to play on the internet and text while I'm on the treadmill while I listen to the loud music out of the Nano on there and while lifting weights. You know texting is the newest best aerobics diversion, followed by internet. They're putting browsers on treadmills now I hear.

4g iriver T60 - it's flash based - bring HD based technology to the gym is a mistake as sooner or later the HD fucks up

Im going to guess you are in the EU and your Iphone is Volume capped, just hack it and you can take the cap off as well as alot of other shit.

When I do take one its an 80gig ipod with rockbox installed, no irritating ID3 issues for me.

Actually we go to the gym to train a bit, not to hear music, thats gay....grow up take off these pink earphones, ignore everyone, concentrate and train!
No need to "hey i brought my ipod with me, and have my laptop over there in the corner so i can post on getbig while training...also it would be a good idea to have a ups with you, in case of a blackout so to look trendy" ::) get serious.

They mostly play Celiene Dion and Michael Bolton in my gym, so there's no need for me to take an IPod to the gym
-
Mine has the new club "hits"...i like them, so why bring mp3's and ipod's. Useless

its too bad the whole world cant be like you "mezo z" and crank club hits all the time.
its much easier to remain focused and dissuade others from approaching you if you have headphones on.

I use the Sansa Sandisk...just like the old Ipod Shuffles but this has a screen, super cheap..Highly recommend it!

good songs can be real motivating. you obviously train like a 60 year old paki woman.

I use a cassete sony walkman
Me too. I have the yellow sport Sony cassette walkman (same earphones from 1995 too!) loaded up with Firehouse "Don't Treat me Bad" or some Iron Maiden on the elliptical. I can usually play the song about 4 times per workout if you include the rewinding time.

60gb ipod but all i need is a nano...who needs 60gb or 80gb?

The mp3 player on my Blackberry.

anyone worried about getting scratches on their ipod should try one of those covers from bestskinsever.com
you really cant even see it once its on. much better than carryin around one of those bulky cases imo.
-
Just get one that wraps around your biceps and you will be fine

The ipod shuffle is the best mp3 (mac type) player to use for the gym. You prearrange your playlists in Itunes (there are automatic playlists that generate from the last songs you downloaded from limew---uh I mean bought from itunes store) ahead of time and load the ones you want before you go....The size is awesome and it clips to whatever article of clothing you want. How many times has your phone or ipod fallen out of your pocket when you're getting up from a bench? Happens to me all the time
McF,
Texting in the gym? ADHD acting up, eh? ;)
-
Anyone here have a video I pod with porn loaded onto it?
-
I bought some tv shows from i-tunes not to watch at the gym but it i just wanna get it on my ipod
-
i use a 30 Gig microsoft zune In My Car... I use a 2 Gig Sandisk Sansa for the gym.. The Zune is to big to use for the gym...
Ah, the one person that actually bought a Zune! Kinda like the existence of Bigfoot or Area 51!
-
40 gig iPod and also a Shuffle. I don't use either at the gym though.
-
