how are these in the gym or running?

I think they are good-- just like any other in-ear earphones-- the rubber part really stick to the ear and holds it well.

Theyre not bad but along with any in ear you can here yourself breathe along with wind. Also the mic for me doesnt work very well at all. But other than that yes they could work well.

I haven't worn them for running but with the foam tips they really stay put. You can also wear them over your ears for a more secure fit. That being said these are not specifically designed for exercising so I don't know how they handle sweat. They sound fantastic though so I'd say it's worth a try.

Yes, I use them when I go to the gym and I have had no troubles running or lifting weights when using them.

I am a runner too. These headphones don't really work for me. I run with my ipod in my hand so it might be different for someone who uses an arm band. But I don't like the volume control. It is heavy and bounces around. I try to use the clips to prevent this...but the clips are in awkward places that dont really work. And sometimes my arm catches on the cord and the buds and clips go flying everywhere and I start swearing. Also if it a hot day and I get sweaty, there is no hope, the buds slip right out. I do however Really like the Sennheiser CX 685 Adidas Sports In-Ear Headphones. These do not have the volume control and clips... much more simple. The buds always stay in. I am a runner too.

I use mine for running and it never falls off. It's a pretty tight fit. I never had a problem with them at the gym.

Well, these actually have a special way of wearing for running, you'll find about it with the manual that comes in the box. They stay in your ears most of the time, but they could slip out with sweat, i'd recomend using a head band while exercising, hope this helped.

After having them for a while, they are very good for running. But the trick is to have the stabilization tab set for your ears. I always have to readjust them for the perfect fit. As a matter of fact I just got through cutting grass and sweated pretty good. No problem with them staying in my ears. If you get them once you and play with them a while you will figure out what angle to put the stabilizer in for the perfect fit. You will also know when you got a good fit because they sound awsome! They are best I have had so far. I have LG730 and they always have a tendency to fall out after sweating, so I stopped wearing them for workouts. I think these are a good buy.

Hi John, I bought these mainly for TV viewing when my wife wants quiet, the volume control was a big plus for me. They have good sound, great noise cancellation, but are pretty bulky. They are fine for working out , including rowing and elliptical, and lifting. I think they would be uncomfortable to run with, and probably would slosh around. Although they do have a snug yet comfortable fit. Hope this helps. Steve

I'm not a runner so it's hard for me to answer other then to say the fit is snug and I do use them at the gym on a spinning bike and on the eliptical machines. I have had them for a while now and still love them. Hope that helps.

Probably not great for the gym. Even @ the smallest, they still move around if jogging in place.

They probably won't be a very good choice for wear while you're in the gym. As for moisture I can only tell you my experience. I wear them onstage and during a show I sweat buckets. I normally take them out between sets and dry them off but I have never had them stop working. I assume that sweat is OK but I won't guarantee it. They stay in my ears just fine but for a workout, I don't know. Maybe.

They don't move in my ears at all while running unless I pull on the cord by accident. The clip on the cord keeps that from happening. I think these are great for working out. They also come with additional sizes of the ear buds to help them fit best.

I use them for running. They stay well but sound quality is not excellent. I use them for audiobooks

My experience is that they're pretty good for the type of headphone they are: quite snug for this style. I find them too bulky and hot to consider ideal during a workout. They don't seem like they're designed to deal with sweat, etc., so the getting them wet with sweat kind of grosses me out too. For normal use I don't consider them too bulky or hot, but to workout I think I prefer an earbud style over these.

I've used these for running, working out with weights, biking and other activities. They are great!

I occasionally use these to work out. They are decent if you want to use them for weight lifting or something else where you aren't moving very fast. I run in them occasionally but they do fall out a lot once I start to sweat.

They aren't heavy but I don't know how well they'd work for running. When the headphones move it is unnaturally loud in the earbuds whether or not music is playing - they work great for weightlifting, but I still haven't tried them out for running.
