Do these earbuds work well for running or working out at the gym?

For running there is no better set of headphones that I have used. For the gym they are ok and I only say that because these "headband" style headphones are never great in the gym because laying down on your back will not be possible when wearing these because the band will touch the floor. I have used these for multiple races and I absolutely love them. I use them in the gym but take them off when using the bench press for example.

They are great they stay in place the short chord with an armband is perfect for running but you have the have the device on the left side no real biggie. The only problem would be bench pressing or workouts where you have to have your head down on the bench or mat dur to the wrap around nature of the band. the way the bud is designed it fits intothe ear canal (see pictures) and blocks out a lot of outside noise that can be good or bad for running on the road just be aware of your soundings as you should be with or with out headphones all in all very good read my review for more on them

I use them for both, but at the gym the wrap around sometimes pushes out of place during bench exercises. For running, I can't even tell I have them on and don't ever have to mess with them. These are just as comfortable with out the ear foams, I tossed the ear foams on the first run.

I use it for running outdoor & works really well for me. Been using this brand for almost 3 years and I gund this is the best

For running they are great but for the gym they can get in the way. I use my earbuds at the gym.

They work well for running but not at high speeds. I've used it on my bike and get a lot of wind noise that drowns out the music. They work at the gym but not as well as the type that are earbuds.

They are excellent for running. They do not move at all. But if you lift weights on a bench the behind the head style may not work. Oh yes they sound excellent.
1878907
Yes they do, snug not tight, comfortable no movement when active use them jogging.

When I had them, they never fell out of my ears when running or working out. The problem was, they shorted out after about 2 months.

Yes. I don't recommend them if you're planning to wear them while working out though. The microphone portion is not waterproof and sweat gets into it, causing it to force songs to skip or even try to call people.

Yep. These are pretty great for exercising. I have been using them for about two years and one of the buds just now started to fade on me. For headphones this price and the sweat and wear that comes with working out with them, that isn't bad

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!!

Laura, I only bought these earphones for jogging and the fact that the earbuds came in 3 sizes. So far I have had not problems with them as I have been out in the rain and also sweaty wearing them. Not sure if this will help you

Excellent in both aspects. I have used these for a 8 miles run and had no issues with the earbuds falling out. Also over time my sweat has not caused the earbuds to quit working and the rubber is easily removed for a simple cleaning.

yes, these are great for running because of the over the ear design. I run and lift weights and they sound awesome and stay in your ear. They are also great on an airplane since it shuts out a lot of the cabin noise. So glad I took a chance on a name brand that I've never heard of!

I use them for jogging all the time. They are more stable than the ear bud earphones I had. They may feel a little heavy and sweaty after you run for some time, but otherwise they're fine. I just ran a half marathon with these on my ears and had no issues whatsoever.

Yes and yes. I have been using the same pair for my workouts for about 2 years now without any damage. They work just as well as the first day I bought them. I'd give them a 10 in terms of durability, a 10 for their functionality, and a 6.5-7.0 for sound quality (they are for casual listening, not studio monitors).

I use them in the gym and on the stair climber machine. They are fine. Not sure about running but would think they would work ok.

Definitely, I use them at the Gym, for an extra tight workout... Thanks, Noe

My only problem with them is too little bass. They are good for workouts because they stay put and reduce background noise. My Apple earbuds have better bass.

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.

I have seen other people using these for running/working out. These are very comfortable in your ears for long hours. As long you clean them after working out, you should be fine. These are built to last a long time.

Yes, they are great for running. The sound is perfect. My solitary complaint is that they are a bit too bulky for my ears to hold up. Otherwise they are great

Well, they definitely don't have the BOOMING bass/bottom-end found on other similarly-priced earbuds. But I wouldn't exactly say that they're bad if you're listening to hip-hop. I listen to lots of hip-hop on them and it sounds clean and loud, which works for me.
