The Common Gym Phone Mount Struggle
Recording your workouts shouldn’t be a workout in itself. Yet many fitness enthusiasts – especially gym influencers – know the frustration of dealing with flimsy phone mounts. Have you ever stuck your phone to a rack with a cheap adhesive or weak magnet, only to watch it wobble or crash to the floor during a heavy lift? You’re not alone. Most gym phone holders on the market have some major drawbacks that make filming your sets harder than it should be:
-
Unstable Mounts: Adhesive pads lose stickiness and basic magnetic mounts often wobble or fall off under the impact of heavy squats or deadlifts. A big lift can send your phone tumbling if the mount isn’t rock solid.
-
iPhone-Only Designs: A lot of solutions cater exclusively to Apple’s MagSafe system. Great for iPhone users, but if you’re on Android (or even using an older iPhone without MagSafe), you’re usually out of luck or stuck with a clunky adapter.
-
Lack of Universal Fit: Many mounts aren’t versatile. Switch to a thicker phone case or a different device, and suddenly your holder doesn’t work. There’s little flexibility to adapt to different phones, angles, or exercise setups.
For gym content creators and everyday athletes alike, these pain points can be a real hassle. No one wants to interrupt a workout to reposition a fallen phone or deal with a mount that only works for certain devices. The good news? Blaubeck set out to solve all of these problems with a fresh, modular approach to gym phone mounts.
Blaubeck’s Unique Two-Product Solution
Blaubeck has taken an innovative route by offering not just one, but two complete phone mounting products – designed to cover every need. Instead of a one-size-fits-all gadget (with compromises for some users), they created two specialized mounts that work on a shared system:
-
MagSafe Magnetic Mount: A mounting head that magnetically attaches to your phone (perfect for iPhone users and quick swaps).
-
Adjustable Clamp Mount: A mounting head with an adjustable cradle that clamps around your phone (ideal for Android users, bulky cases, or extra secure grip).
Each version comes as a standalone product with its own high-strength magnetic base. That means whether you choose the MagSafe head or the clamp head, you get everything you need in one package to firmly mount your phone to gym equipment. Importantly, both mount heads attach to their bases using the same magnetic interface. In practical terms, if you own both the MagSafe and the clamp versions, you can swap the heads freely between the bases. It’s a modular design without forcing you to buy a single expensive kit – you can start with one and later add the other, seamlessly expanding your setup.
This approach is unique in the gym mount market. Blaubeck essentially gives you two tools that snap onto equipment magnetically, and those tools can share parts. The benefit? Total flexibility. You can use the magnetic snap-on head when you want speed and convenience, or switch to the clamp head when you need extra security – all without having to juggle completely different mounting systems.
MagSafe Mount: Snap-On Speed and Convenience
Blaubeck’s MagSafe-compatible mount is a dream for those who value speed and simplicity. If you’re an iPhone user, this mount will feel like second nature: just tap your phone onto the magnetic head and it clicks into place, leveraging the phone’s built-in MagSafe magnets. No fumbling with brackets or screws – your phone is up and ready to record in a split second.
This quick attach/detach capability is ideal when you’re moving fast between exercises or capturing different angles on the fly. Say you’re supersetting between the squat rack and the pull-up bar – with the magnetic mount, you can pop your phone off and slap it onto the next station instantly. The mount’s strong magnetic grip keeps your iPhone securely in place, yet releases with a firm pull when you’re ready to move.
Importantly, Blaubeck hasn’t forgotten Android users here. Every MagSafe version of the mount includes a thin magnetic ring accessory that you can stick onto the back of any Android phone (or non-MagSafe case). This ring effectively gives your device MagSafe-like capability, so you can enjoy the same snap-on convenience. In other words, even if you carry a Samsung, Pixel, or other Android phone, Blaubeck’s magnetic mount has you covered – you’ll get that same quick “lift and go” usability that iPhone folks love.
Despite its convenience, the MagSafe mount is no flimsy gimmick. Blaubeck built it with high-strength magnets in both the base and the phone head, so your device stays put through most workouts. For typical lifts, moderate movements, and quick filming needs, this version shines. It’s about as effortless as it gets to mount your phone and start recording or watching your workout app.
Best for: iPhone users (zero extra parts needed), fast setup and repositioning, and anyone who wants a minimalist solution. Android users can enjoy it too via the included ring, making this option surprisingly universal. For casual to moderate-intensity training sessions or when you’re frequently moving the mount, the magnetic head is a perfect choice.
Clamp Mount: Rock-Solid Security for Any Phone
If you prioritize absolute security – or if you’re an Android-first user with a bulky phone – Blaubeck’s adjustable clamp mount is the answer. This version trades the quick snap of MagSafe for a universally compatible, vice-like grip. The mount head features an adjustable cradle (basically a robust clamp) that extends to fit virtually any smartphone, even those in thick, rugged cases. From plus-sized Android phablets to a big iPhone in an OtterBox, this clamp can handle it. You simply place your phone in the cradle and tighten it down for a firm hold. There’s soft rubber padding inside the clamp, so your phone stays scratch-free and secure once locked in.
The clamp mount still uses Blaubeck’s magnetic base to attach to gym equipment, which means setup is quick: slap the base onto a metal surface, then insert your phone into the clamp. It adds maybe a few seconds more than the MagSafe version to secure your phone, but in return you get maximum stability. This is the mount you want for high-vibration workouts and all-out heavy lifts. Doing heavy deadlifts, power cleans, or explosive box jumps? The clamp’s physical grip ensures your phone won’t jiggle loose or rotate out of position even if the equipment shakes. The strong magnetic base anchors to the rack while the clamp locks your phone in from the other side – a double assurance that nothing’s going to slip.
Android users will especially appreciate this design as a primary option. There’s no need for any special rings or magnetic cases; it’s truly OS-agnostic and case-agnostic. And if you’re an iPhone user with a preference for extra security (or perhaps you use a non-MagSafe case), you might opt for the clamp mount as well. It’s also great for those who share the mount with multiple people/devices – for example, if you and your workout partner alternate filming sets and they have a different phone model, the adjustable clamp accommodates everyone easily.
In short, the clamp version is all about dependability and universality. It’s slightly more old-school in that you have to secure the phone in the holder, but Blaubeck made that process quick and easy with a good spring-loaded design. Once clamped, your phone is effectively part of the equipment – ready to record your most intense PR attempts without a worry.
Best for: Android users who don’t want to fuss with magnetic adapters, anyone with a very thick or heavy phone/case, and lifters doing very intense workouts (heavy lifts, plyometrics, etc.). If you need the most secure hold possible, the clamp mount is your go-to.
Modular System Benefits: Flexibility Meets Reliability
Why offer two separate mounts that interconnect? Because this modular-but-separate system brings together the best of both worlds. Here are the key advantages that Blaubeck’s approach delivers for gym-goers and content creators:
-
Choose Your Setup (and Upgrade Anytime): With Blaubeck, you’re not locked into one style of phone mount. You can start with the version that suits your current needs, and later expand your kit. For example, maybe you begin with the clamp mount for your Android phone. Down the road, if you get an iPhone or just want the convenience of MagSafe, you can pick up the magnetic head kit. Since both heads work on the same base interface, you can mix and match easily. It’s like building your own ideal mount over time, rather than having to buy a completely new device if your needs change. This flexibility to upgrade or add on gives the system a longer life and more value for you.
-
Stability You Can Trust: Both Blaubeck mounts are engineered for the rigors of serious training. The magnetic base in each uses high-grade magnets that cling fiercely to any steel surface in the gym. That base is the foundation of the system, keeping your phone steady on racks, machines, or benches. The MagSafe head securely grips compatible phones (with extra magnetic support for Androids via the ring), while the clamp head physically locks down your device. Whichever you use, you get a rock-solid hold. No more mid-set phone crashes or constant readjusting – even during intense lifts. For content creators, this reliability means you can focus on nailing your squat or bench PR, not worrying if your camera angle is about to collapse.
-
Universal Compatibility: Between the two mount styles, any phone is compatible – literally. Got an iPhone 15 Pro? Slap it on the MagSafe mount natively. Running a Google Pixel with a thick case? Clamp it in securely. Using a smaller phone or switching to the latest Galaxy Note? Either the ring (for magnetic use) or the adjustable clamp will have you covered. Because the system doesn’t rely on a one-type-fits-all approach, you’ll never face the “does my phone work with this?” question. This is a huge relief for Android users who are used to being an afterthought in a MagSafe-dominated accessory world. With Blaubeck, iOS or Android, big or small, naked phone or chunky case – it just works.
-
Speed and Convenience for Creators: Fitness influencers and avid gym vloggers will love how quick and versatile the Blaubeck mounts are in practice. The magnetic base mounts instantly to any equipment – far faster than wrapping Velcro or setting up a tripod. If you own both heads, you can truly optimize on the fly: use the MagSafe head when you’re doing a circuit and need to relocate the camera swiftly for each exercise; switch to the clamp head when setting up for a heavy lift where you want absolute insurance against movement. Filming content often means changing angles, repositioning between sets, or adjusting to avoid other people in the frame – all of which is easier when your mount can be relocated or repurposed in seconds. Blaubeck’s system keeps up with your pace. It’s a boon for anyone recording sets for Instagram, TikTok, or just personal review. You’ll spend less time fiddling with your recording setup and more time focusing on your workout.
In sum, Blaubeck’s two-mount system brings flexibility, reliability, compatibility, and convenience together. It recognizes that gym-goers have different needs at different times, and it delivers a solution for each scenario without making you purchase an entirely new gadget. This modular design is almost like having a multi-tool for your phone: whatever the situation calls for, you have the right attachment at hand.
Extra Perks That Make a Difference
Beyond the core features, Blaubeck’s gym phone mounts come with a few thoughtful extras that show they understand gym users’ real-world needs:
-
Magnetic Base Doubles as a Gear Hook: When you’re not using the mount head, the magnetic base alone can be a handy gym accessory. Snap the mount head off, and you can stick the base onto a rack to act as a temporary hook for your gear. Thanks to the strong magnet, it’ll hold items like your sweat towel, resistance bands, or even your gym bag off the floor. It’s a clever little bonus use – perfect for keeping your equipment tidy and within reach during a workout. Instead of draping your towel over a random bench or piling bands on the ground, your Blaubeck magnet can secure them on any metal surface. (Just one of those small conveniences you’ll quickly grow to appreciate.)
-
Portable and Gym-Bag Friendly: Both Blaubeck mount versions are compact and lightweight. The whole unit (base plus head) is small enough to toss in your gym bag or even a jacket pocket. Unlike bulky tripods or clamp rigs, it won’t weigh you down or take up much space. This means you can easily carry it from machine to machine, or from home to the gym, without any hassle. Doing a travel workout or hitting a different gym? No problem – the mount comes with you. Its portability encourages you to use it consistently, since it’s not a pain to bring along. Essentially, it’s as mobile as you are.
-
Quick Setup, Easy Cleanup: The design is straightforward – there are no permanent adhesives or complicated straps to deal with. You can mount your phone in seconds and remove it just as fast when you’re done. If you’re supersetting or need to change angles between sets, you’ll love not having to spend time screwing/unscrewing anything. And when your workout is over, detaching the mount leaves no marks or residue on the equipment (the base has a protective coating to prevent scratches). You can pop it off and be on your way, with no gym staff giving you the side-eye for leaving any mess or damage.
All these little perks add up to a product that feels really well thought-out for gym use. It’s clear Blaubeck designed their mounts with real gym scenarios in mind – from keeping your space organized to being able to carry the mount anywhere easily.
