How To Safely Carry Concealed During a Workout
Exercising Your Right To Carry Doesn’t Have To Stop You From Exercising!
Team iconcealed.com likes to hit the gym after a long, hard day helping our members resolve all their CCW questions or concerns.
Here are some fundamentals to keep in mind while you pump up, do reps, and sweat up a storm… WHILE ARMED!
FIRST
Make sure you have permission to carry concealed at your gym. You don’t want to do anything to violate policy and lose your membership!
SECOND
Dress & Draw For Success!
Wear a workout holster. A shoulder or IWB holster offers the kind of retention for training while armed.
An IWB holster has an adjustable belt that fits snugly around your waist underneath your workout clothes. If you clip your holster on gym shorts or yoga pants, you’ll realize they’re not made to support the weight of a gun. And wear longer or baggy gym clothes to avoid printing or exposing your weapon while moving!
Practice drawing your weapon in your workout clothes (at home) to make sure they don’t slow down your speed!
THIRD
Get a smaller gun! Downsizing to a less obvious profile allows you to better hide your weapon.
FOURTH
Wait until you get home to rinse off the sweat. That way, you don’t risk someone breaking into your locker and stealing your gun!
LASTLY
Now that you know how to carry concealed while working out, you can stay protected while you get ripped!
