how are these working out/exercising? do they easily fall out of your ears with movemenor do they stay securely in the ears (without any discomfort)?

I use mine for my motor cycle. Phone music etc. they took se getting use to because one of my ear canals is small, very small. The kit didn't quite fit. BUT you will have to see; however, they have been durable. I'd buy them again for my use. Discomfort? Relative. The Bose are more comfortable by 2 X. Good luck

So here is my experience (the squeamish might want to stop here). I use the silicone "cone" earbuds. When I go to put them in my ears I do a quick "lick" to lube the silicone with a little saliva. Yes, sounds gross, but a little moisture helps seat the buds deep in my ears. I wear these in many different circumstances from sitting quietly on an airplane (and quiet is the right word since they block a great deal of external noise) to various forms of exercise and most chores around the house. (Note that I've gone through one pair because I failed to adequately "protect" the loose wires running from my iPhone to my ears - not unique to Etymotic, but something to be careful of.) I really like these buds - they have excellent sound quality IMO and once in the ear, they stay put and they are, for me, very comfortable. One last comment - I started out with my originally Etymotics using the flesh-colored foam plugs and after six months switched to the silicone plugs. A "second last comment" - you should plan on changing out the "ear wax filters" (eeyuuuh) 2-3 times per year depending on usage and your ear physiology. Last word - should I destroy these in a moment of carelessness I won't hesitate to purchase another set. ghl

They work very well and will not fall out. The key is to putting in the correct size ear pieces for comfort. The only thing to watch out for is do not allow the little mic/button pod to get wet with sweat. It's probably best to just seal it in electrical tape.

The stock earbuds stay pretty solidly in place come hell or high water. Also, I purchased the custom-fit earbuds Etymotic offers through Sonus. These will not come out of my ears even if I catch the cord and rip the headphone from the earbud the earbud itself will remain firmly in place.

BY FAR the best workout earbud on the market. I've been wearing Etymotic for over a decade at the gym. Running, biking, lifting....sweating severly....and as long as you don't pull them out while working out - they stay put.

As long as you use the clip attached you should be fine. Due to the design of these being canalphones, they stay pretty fixed into your ears. Finding the right tips will help prevent discomfort. Make sure you don't jerk the cable, that can hurt your ears as it will pull out of your ear canals, causing discomfort. I prefer the foam eartips to the silicone.

The earphones will stay put. The level of comfort will vary as each person has a different shaped ear canal. Keep in mind there are other manufacturers eartips that will fit these earphones. You have a lot of options to get a good fit. I prefer the 2 flange eartips made by another company. You can always go the high-end route and have a set of custom eartips cast specifically for your ears.

Once you find the right earpiece (from the selection provided by Etymotic Research) they fit fine during exercise.

As previously stated, these do stay on without issues but I would not wear them while exercising. Not only would you not want to bump them (especially with a metal barbell or something similar) but your ears would get a little hot and the Beats are not sweat resistant. I recommend you look elsewhere if you want headphone a for exercising. Bose makes a few sweat resistant earbuds that I recommend, Sennheiser has a sweat resistant earbud, and even Beats make similar earbuds though they weren't comfortable for me and their sound quality was lacking.

Lol it gets a lil sweaty but they stay pretty secure as long as u have them tucked behind ur ears well. B-). Ive used mine on the treadmill for about an hour n mine stood in place without any slipping and or falling off. Hope this helped.

I use the optional attachments that help secure the buds within the outer ear, and I've never had a problem with them falling off. I use them trail running and, though I don't make sudden movements, I do look all around me and not just straight ahead.

I find they generally stay on my head when being bounced around, if you put them on right. I would probably pick earbuds over them if you're worried about them slipping off, though.

Not bad, not great. I've been alternating between light jogging and fast walking and for that they work pretty good. However I find that I have to readjust them every couple of minutes because they don't stay as deep in my ear as I'd like. To be fair, I have always had a problem with finding earbuds that fit my ears well, so you may not have that problem. I've only had them actually fall out of my ear once though, so I think that's pretty good.

First, I am not a person who works out, and I can only imagine you are referring to being in the gym, running etc.so that it quite a bit of movement. I do use these daily, in fact I often go to bed wearing them, listening to music, for sleep and relaxation programs. I turn often in my sleep and am forever moving my pillow. These pretty much stay in with this kind of close contact and are consistent over time. I would consider that also a function of how good the ear bud cushions fit your ear. Mine have worked out well. I still find the chord is great since it does not tangle into the usual nightmare ball that other ear bud do. That of course, may be a plus or minus for you, because I don't know where your chord will be during any potions of your workout. I do use these while in my workshop, while cooking etc. often by throwing the long length of chord over my head so it lays on my back and stays out of my way. Hope this helps.

Yes! In fact, I go jogging and go to the gym with them as my primary. I find they stay put much easier than the traditional in ear buds everyone uses. It's also nice to leave my phone in the locker and walk freely about the gym still playing music. The only time where they started slipping off my head was when I was doing very quick ab workouts, but otherwise they are great.

The outer covering of the wires are great, they're water resistant and easy to tangle. I've used them for workouts and they've been fine. They don't fall out because the headphones come with 3 different sized earbuds; so u can pick whichever one fits ur ear best.

Hey Russell ! - Yes, they DO stay in place in your ears. No problem with that. This set comes with the option of a Memory Foam piece to fit in your ear. I use that option, and they stay in place all day long. If you read my review, you will learn more about them.

These earbuds stay put. Really. Between the design of the ear piece and the included clip, they stay in place for me. I wear them working out on a treadmill and for work outside and have not had them fall off once.

I rock mine on the elliptical, rowing machine, lifting, core work...they move a little on a treadmill but that is because there is more impact with running/jogging. I can't keep ear-buds in my ears, my beats saved the day!

Hey Kevin, they are pretty good for running as I know this from experience. The ear cushion is soft, so it won't rub your ears roughly. Their only downfall, I think, when it comes to fitness is that they may make you ears sweat a little because of the material the cushion is made of. But I will deal with that part because of how soft the cushion is. Other than that, they are A1 in my book!!

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.

Yes, provided you use the correct rubber piece to fit in your ear. It can sometimes slide out if you don't clean your ear prior, and it can be pulled out if you don't use the clip and happen to snag it on something. I have never had them fall out while cycling, hiking, or walking as long as I made sure they were clipped to my shirt and fit snugly.

Agreed with the other responders - there is no problem with these staying in your ears. I run with them, I've rowed with them, etc., and have never had an issue.

I have zero issues with them staying on. No problems with squats, dead-lifts, decline bench, running, or even burpees. Your ears do definitely get hot though. I just pop them off between sets and wipe the ear cups every now and then. Just takes a couple seconds and the sound is definitely worth the hassle.
