Fitness sports headphones recommended

Pursuing the ultimate stability, I choose Shaoyin OpenRun Pro for regular running. I prefer the immersive experience in the gym. If I am on a medium budget, I choose Edifier FitPods. For students who have a limited budget, I choose QCY T17S for frequent activities. These three models were selected by me after sifting through a lot of pitfalls. I didn’t find it suitable, so don’t worry.

Speaking of which, the first pitfall I encountered was the AirPods Pro. At the time, I thought they would just look good. When I did a burpee for the first time, they flew out of my ears and hit the mirror in the gym. Not only did a piece of paint come off the frame of the earphones, I paid 200 to pay for the mirror. It still hurts to think about it now. Since then, when I choose sports headphones, "wearing them stably" is the first priority, and other functions are the icing on the cake.

Nowadays, the choice of headphones in the fitness circle is actually quite noisy. One group insists on open listening, saying that it is too dangerous to wear in-ear noise-cancelling headphones when running on the road without hearing the honking of cars. If someone calls you to hide from the equipment in the gym, you will not respond, and accidents are easy to happen; In fact, both needs are reasonable. When choosing, just look at your most commonly used scenarios. There is no need to convince each other.

I often run, so the first thing I bought was bone conduction. I have been wearing Shaoyin's model for almost a year. After running a half marathon for 3 hours, the ear bones were not irritated at all. I bought a cheap bone conduction from a certain brand before, but after running 5 kilometers, I thought my ears were frostbitten. I thought my ears were frostbite. I sweated a lot and they slid down. I had to reach out to hold them from time to time. It was annoying to death. The stability of this product is really top-notch. It didn’t shake when I was running up hills and steep slopes last month. It has an IPX5 waterproof rating, and sweat flowed down the neck without any problems. The only small drawback is that bone conduction is common. If you turn the volume too high, people next to you can hear some noise. If you often go to places with a lot of people, or if you are concerned about sound leakage, you can consider it again.

If you mostly stay in the indoor gym, rarely run on the road, and just want a fitness environment where no one will disturb you, you can really try the in-ear noise-canceling model. I have been wearing Edifier FitPods last winter. After the noise reduction is turned on, it can basically filter out 90% of the muffled sound of gym equipment hitting the floor and the rumble of treadmills. I don’t feel like my ears are swelling when doing heavy movements such as deadlifts and squats while wearing them. , I have worn an in-ear model of a certain Internet celebrity before. When I took it off, the ear pinna hurt so much that I dared not touch it. The price of this model is more than 300 yuan and it also comes with active noise reduction. Last time I practiced my buttocks and legs, I was sweating all over my face. I took off the earphones and flushed them with the faucet.

Students who have just applied for a fitness card and don’t want to spend hundreds on headphones can go directly to QCY T17S is fine. The price is over 100. I gave it to my sister as a high school graduation gift last year. She danced Liu Genghong and Pamela every day. She wore it for half a year without saying a word about it. The battery life is also great, and it can last for a week on a single charge. The sound quality is definitely not as good as the more expensive ones, but it is enough for listening to fitness BGM. It is just a general noise reduction. If the gym is very noisy, you need to turn up the volume. But at this price, you don’t need a bicycle.

When choosing, there is really no need to look at those fancy additional functions, such as heart rate monitoring, AI running companions, and sports data statistics. They are all IQ taxes. I bought a sports headset with a heart rate monitor before, and the measured heart rate was more than 20 points worse than my sports bracelet. It was purely a decoration, and it was more than 300 yuan more expensive than the one with the same configuration. It was just a big mistake. Also, don’t buy white ones. They turn yellow easily. The white in-ear model I wore before for half a month turned yellow like a three-year-old toothbrush. Don’t ask me how I know that.

Oh, by the way, if you wear in-ear ear caps, they tend to fall off easily. You can buy a few more pairs of silicone ear caps or sponge ear caps of different sizes. Most likely, it is not the earphones that are the problem, but the ear caps are not the right size. I always fell them off before. After changing to a small sponge ear cap, my skipping rope will not shake. Anyway, for this kind of personal use thing, you don’t have to pursue it in one step, it’s best to suit your own usage habits.
