We love wearable tech here, and we love fitness trackers too. Since we all carry phones anyway these days, and they’ve got just about all the tech you’d ever need to track your fitness, why not combine the two and make your iPhone a wearable fitness tracker!

We are partial to the Belkin EasyFit Plus Armband. It’s protective, it’s comfortable, and it has a sweet little key pocket too. You can easily fit everything you need from keys to credit cards, IDs, and Cash in this baby and go for a run. Made from neoprene and Lycra, it’s light and breathable and is sweat and water resistant. The arm band comes in two different colors- Black or Day Glo with pink. It has a very low profile shape, and fits firmly on almost any sized arm.

To complete the transformation from iPhone 5 to wearable fitness tracker, you need to get an app. As far as fitness tracking apps go, there are dozens of them out there… Each has it’s own strengths and weaknesses. From Nexercise to Fitocracy, from Runtastic to a whole gamut of Nike and Adidas apps, there’s something for everybody in the fitness tracking app department.

The iPhone 5 is a very cool piece of tech that basically already falls into the category of wearable technology. It can track you footsteps, location, speed, altitude, even your heart rate using the camera! With a bit of research, you’ll find the iPhone 5 case that fits you best and lets you either carry your phone in your pocket or on your arm for all of your wearable technology needs.
