My wife has these but they don't fit very snug, always falling off when she does any exercise laying down like bench press, skull crushers, etc.

Any recommendations for different headphones... NOT ear buds?



That is what she has now, they sound great but are NOT tor the gym.

TIA

Soundcore P20 is half price right now. Only $20. Good as a backup. I keep an extra set of something in the car in case I forget mine.

I’ll throw out something different but the meta glasses actually have a pretty cool Audio feature. It’s even better when you’re talking to someone on the phone

I personally can't wear them because I have tiny ear canals. Even with the smallest cushions I can find, there's a lot of pressure and they fall out every 10 seconds.

Has anyone used the Shokz bone conduction headphones? My coworker swears by them. I kind of want to try them but unsure because they seem so different.

I love those, but depending on the music at the gym, you may be hearing 2 songs at once. I like that I can still hear things around me, but when the Gym is blaring Ed Sheran or other garbage, it conflicts with my music and ruins my focus.

I used these for years and then they quit holding a charge long enough for me to finish a workout. I bought some knockoffs off Amazon and they are good also but not as good as the beats.

Yeah not spending much on these anymore. I think the Amazon brand is Matast? buy two pair at a time because I'm going to loose them or they will get borrowed by a child.

I looked yesterday and you can get 8 pair for the price of those beats


I must be getting smarter in my old age because a few years ago I didn’t hesitate to buy the beats but when I went to replace them I was like there is no way I’m spending $200 for something that didn’t last but a few years.
