Are these headphones good for the gym? Looking for a good set to keep me in the zone while lifting weights. I know it probably won't do well with running.

Question

I prefer to use earbuds at the gym because I sweat a lot and over ear headphones would get pretty gross. These ones have a lot of padding so they are comfortable for a long time but I probably wouldn't wear them at the gym because they may start smelling. They are awesome Bluetooth headphones though.

They work great for the gym unless it's running... Even elliptical

JThom · Answer

Really good at the gym. I run on the treadmill often, and I have NO problems.

They are much bigger than earbuds as they fully cover the ear but they stay put during activity and long wear. You cannot hear much around you but you also don't have a cord to deal with getting in the way while lifting or running.

Yes! They do tend to fall off when laying down and doing abs or what not, but they stay on very well if you're doing arms or if you're running on the read.

Happy workout!

No, they move around... But I guess it'd depend the size of your head and how snug it fits.

The headphones are certainly not a "loose" fit however, I think you would be better served with in ear headphones.

That is why my husband wanted them, he loves the quality of the sound, without bothering me with his music. We love them.

No

Yes, they are snug fitting and dont fall off easily. They are not super expensive so it makes it a better choice for the gym where any amount of bad things could happen to them. Buy the Geek Squad if you want to use them at the gym.
