in Fitness and Exercise
Hello, hello, fitness friends,

I was wondering if anyone could give me any good recommendations for some wireless headphones for the gym (not big bulky beats, rather little ones that you can stick in your ear). I find it ridiculously annoying that for most of my leg day exercises and/or compound movement sets, I can't listen to my music because my leggings don't have a pocket for my phone. And rather than buying a bunch of leggings with phone pockets, I figure that getting wireless headphones is the more practical way to go.
In short - does anyone have any wireless headphones that they've used and really loved? I'm looking for fairly small and good quality headphones.

Thank you!!

    I use a brand called Taotronics. Good quality and below $50. I have been using that brand for over 6 months

    I use Taotronics also (bought them on Amazon) and they are good quality. Also much better sound than the (more expensive) Plantronics I was using before them.

    I bought a $40 pair of SkullCandy bluetooth headphones... specifically.. Skullcandy Smokin Buds 2 Wireless InEar Headphones Model: S2PGHW-174. Love them! They're awesome.

    I would probably want ones with a built-in HRM if I was in the market for a pair.

    I saved a ton by buying a $10 fanny pack / running belt for my phone and continuing to use my $5 headphones.

    @yellingkimber I learned the hard way that phones and running don't always mix terribly well:

    I learned the hard way not to buy phones with glass screens ;)

    In all seriousness, it'd be impossible for my fanny pack to accidentally open while I was running. It's a pretty tight seal.

    I had so much anxiety buying my new headphones. Literally ripped the cord out of the jack on my old corded ones. I got MPOW cheetah headphones on amazon. Their customer service looks amazing. Every negative review (and there weren't too many) of them was replied too by the company and they sent them a different pair to see if they helped and a lot of people edited their complaint and said that their problem was fixed.
    The MPOW cheetah's stay in really well for me. I run 5K occasionally, elliptical, weights, abs, pushups, burpees and they stay put the whole time. Just occasionally push em in, but that happens with every headphone except big ones. They were around 20.99 when I bought em. They also offer MPOW swift models of the headphones, so I'd highly suggest either MPOW brand and explore their choices! I've had mine 3 weeks and they have been working great. They even have a charge of 8 hours!
