So I nearly had a "I need a gun and I don't have it" moment. I've been getting in my sessions late at night recently. This time, I discovered a number of police cars in the parking lot. It turns out that someone was shooting a car (no one injured as far as I know). If I had been a little earlier, they could've been shooting at me.
I'm not a fan of off body carry, but it looks to be my only option. I can't see how to make on body carry work without the gun getting in the way. |

I see people who keep their gym bags with them and I just assume they’re carrying.
I’d think some kind of off body is the best option. Unless you can find a “cool” fanny pick. |

Have you thought about a gym in a different location?
That would rub me the wrong way and I would not be foccused while on the treadmill and lifting. |

They usually don't want you carrying bags in to be with you.
I see people doing it all the time, and they don't say shit. Just hang it on whatever machine you are using. I carry a CRKT mini karambit on a lanyard under my shirt and then another lanyard with my car keys over my shirt. Gyms do seem to collect various shitbirds hanging out in the parking lot or lobby. Not all of them do anything about it. |

Well, it's like a mile from my house  It's actually a nice gym all things considered. A a large variety and quality equipment, a pool. Pretty much anything I could want in a gym. There's an official "no bag" policy, but I've never seen them enforce it. |

The past 3 years I've carried an LCP2 either AIWB in gym shorts or I'll wear cargo shorts and carry it in my pocket.
No sweatidah. |

I used this for years
It's won't fit anything larger than a double stack sub compact, and a single stack is probably ideal. But it is a fast draw, and won't give you away long as you remove the badging. |

Ruger LCP in holster in right front pants pocket. Spare mags and keys in left front pants pocket.
Simple but effective. |

I prop my rattler against the squat rack.
I built a home gym though, and it's also where I dryfire, so may not relate. that said I have carried an LCP or 365x IWB while lifting. it isn't really fun or anything and gets in the way of some of the stuff I want to do. If I was really concerned I would do a fanny pack or genuinely switch gyms. |
