Do you run outside with your ring?

Bailee, on October 10, 2016 at 11:26 PM Posted in Fitness and Health 0 88

Hi ladies!

So this is a weird question, do you wear your ring when you exercise outside? I go running a lot and I was just thinking if someone were to try to stop me and try to take my ring haha. I live in a pretty safe place but still, you never know what can happen. I have insurance on my ring to get it replaced no matter what happens to it but I just wanted to know what you guys do or if this has ever crossed your mind!

    It's crossed my mind like "what if I'm running and someone sees something shine-y on my finger and try to knock me out and take it off when I'm passed out?!" Then I go anyway.

    I don't wear mine to work out ever. Plus with running you want to make sure that if you start sweating it's not going to fall off. And same for when it gets cold. You wouldn't want to risk losing it. I don't think too many people would try to stop you to take your ring.

    I switch to my QALO ring when I exercise and go to clinicals. Definitely recommend getting one.

    It's best to keep all jewelry inside the house during any sort of exercise.

    One day I taught a Zumba class outside on concrete and I had my ring on. Well I did a move that required me hitting the ground several times throughout the routine.

    Lo and behold when I got home, I had some dents on the palm side of the ring. Nice going.

    I don't do any exercise with my ring, or the ring I've worn on my right hand for much longer. I have a silicone ring that I might wear for exercise once we're married.

    Like PPs have said, it's best to keep your ring off while doing any type of exercise. I always take mine off. Also, what is a QALO?? I'm definitely going to research this now!

    I guess this isn't the popular opinion, but I run with mine on outside. I do take it off for any other exercise (weights, pushups, etc.) because it's uncomfortable for me and I am worried about damaging it. But for running, I leave it on.

    I take mines off when I exercise, wash dishes, or take a shower. I have a little ring holder in the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom room.

    I take mine off when exercising, but sometimes I forget to do so. If you are running outside by yourself, I definitely will not be wearing it.

    I always take my ring off when I run outside. If it's hot out my fingers swell and my ring gets uncomfortably tight, and if it's cold the ring gets loose enough where it can slip off. I usually keep my ring on for other exercise though like yoga, spin, pilates, etc.

    I don't put my ring on until I'm heading out the door for work or play so no I don't run with it on usually but I don't take it off it I'm exercising later in the day. I run at first light so...

    I really really try to take it off before I go to the gym since I'm worried it'll either fall off too easily because of sweat or my fingers will swell because of activity. When I don't remember, I spend too much time during class worrying about it and not enough focusing on getting a good enough workout. :/

    Exercising with your ring on can cause it damage, especially if it's antique like mine! Putting any extra pressure on the shank (like the downward dog pose in yoga) or your fingers swelling quickly can be dangerous. You shouldn't do any type of exercise with your ring on, and you also shouldn't shower with it or sleep with it!
