Part Five: How to define the most effective headsets for use when working out?

It is difficult to work out without developing something else to concentrate on. Anybody can raise weights or pass away several hours on the Stairmaster whilst viewing Television, but to run mutely or pull weights with nothing but a grunting and groaning for company is not very much enjoyment whatsoever. Portable music may be the obvious interruption of choice, obviously, but which headsets will you choose to listen to it on? Keep in mind, you don’t want headsets that can rattle, skip, fall or slip at the same time as you’re attempting to get yourself a sweat going.

Obviously, the best headphones to find, in this instance, are wireless types. Cables will get twisted or (something that I find personally infuriating) they might be pulled out of the device you’re playing, which leads you to either stop your workout completely, try to fiddle about one-handedly to re-connect your headphones or simply continue in silence while the battery dies in your MP3 player.

Wireless headphones are clearly designed using the energetic self in mind. If you should use a Bluetooth type, a great deal of the better, it is possible to then also answer your telephone, entirely hands free.

The Jaybird Freedom can be a model the same as this, though its quite costly, you can still pick a pair up for below £100 (prices vary on this one, so it really is worth shopping about), it’ll connect quite gladly to any device you can consider (though, as always, it pays to double check) and is designed with strenuous activity and exercise much in mind. There is even a existence anti sweat assurance. A discreet, lightweight, modern design and faultless sound reproduction make this a somewhat costly, but very valuable, buy.

If you really do want a wired pair (or, more likely, you simply cannot afford a wireless set), then your best bet is the Koss KSC 75. They are featured a lot on a range of other headphone websites and nearly consistantly make the ‘top 10’ lists for their great mixture of high performance, reasonable price and lifelong warranty.

Yes, life span warranty. You are able to return them at any time, for just about any malfunction. The very fact is, that once you try these babies out, you will not need to, plus they will not let you down. For around £20 you will get these smashing headsets delivered to the door, they clip on to the ears without difficulty and duplicate sound better than most headsets which might be double the price.

So there you have it, now there’s no excuse at all, particularly with summer a-coming in, not to get out there and get a good exercise going.
