I can’t go jogging without my headphones, the music aids my motivation and I enjoy tracks full of energy once I zip through the streets of my hometown.
The best way to get yourself pumped before heading out of the door, is to plug in the headphones (or connect them through Bluetooth) and listen to rhythmic sounds.
I’ve been going through a ton of different headphones without finding the right ones, until recently where I started researching the market and took a closer look at the all-time user favorites.
Headphones for joggers take a beating, and you have to take it into consideration when you pick your new gear. I’m usually considering these factors when I pick a new set of headphones:
- Durability: Can they withstand being dropped, and how do they do with rain, sweat, and warmth?
- Sound quality: Although I don’t think it’s critical, the headphones have to sound good. Otherwise there’s not really any point in listening to music as you go.
- Price: Don’t expect jogging headphones to last for a lifetime – price is important, because you’re going to replace them once in a while anyway.
Below are some of the headphones I believe are the best ones for jogging on the market – make sure you check them all out:
