I'm always slightly puzzled by the people who bring their phones into the gym. I leave mine in the locker. Disconnect and focus on the workout.

Mine has my workouts on, which vary 'as needed'.

My routine has just enough exercises that I don't always remember the reps / timing / order / proper form, so the phone serves as my reference medium. Understood and agreed though - it's ripe for distraction. I should probably just write the routine down.

I think it depends on the type of workout. I do a powerlifting style program that has a 3 minute rest time between sets, so I like to read during them.

If I were doing cardio or a circuit style workout I would forgo my phone and concentrate on the workout.
