Zygo Solo

 Zygo Solo

The Zygo Solo are the only set of waterproof headphones we’ve tested that can actually stream music and podcasts from a phone that’s sitting by the side of the pool. Bluetooth signals can only penetrate water for a very short distance. The Zygo Solo gets around this problem by using an FM radio transmitter – an unusual, but effective approach.

The sound quality is impressive, too. Like the Aftershokz Xtrainerz and Sony NW-WS413 below, the Zygo Solo uses bone conduction to transmit sound to your auditory nerve, and while it sounds a little tinny on land, once you’re in the pool the sound has an impressive amount of bass.

The transmitter is quite large, but the ability to enjoy music, podcasts and coaching tips (provided by the Zygo app) without messing around with MP3 files is a real bonus. The headset itself isn’t as compact as the others in this guide either. However, in our tests it proved comfortable, and remained secure even when making turns underwater.

We’re also big fans of the Zygo mobile app, which offers instructor-led workouts an drills to give you training some variety. In the future, the company plans to add Peloton-style interactive sessions, which will make use of the headset’s built-in accelerometer to track your progress in the pool. The best waterproof headphones you can buy today.

Bose Frames Alto Audio Sunglasses

workout headphones

Now, hear us out with this one. When you’re cycling, it’s really important to be aware of your surroundings, particularly pedestrians and oncoming traffic – which is why we’re recommending that cyclists try out the nifty Bose Frames instead of a traditional pair of earbuds or headphones.

Sunglasses with Open Ear Headphones

The Bose Frames combine your sunglasses with headphones by building in speakers that are pointed towards your ears. This means you’re able to keep your ears and head free of anything but your pair of sunglasses (and your helmet, of course), while still being able to listen to music, podcasts or audiobooks.

With a soundtrack

The sound quality has proven to be surprisingly good during testing, albeit not as full or bassy as you’ll get from a dedicated pair of cans. You may find that bone conduction headphones like the Aftershokz Aeropex deliver a fuller sound, so it’s worth checking out this form factor too, if you want to keep your ears free. Plus, the Bose Frames come with the added benefit of shielding your eyes from the sun or any debris your front wheel kicks up as your cycle – for us, thats a win-win.

Beats Fit Pro

Sports headphones

With the Beats Pro Fit, Apple’s taken a crowd-favorite and turned it into one of the best workout headphones we’ve tested. These noise-canceling earbuds takes the performance of the Airpods Pro and makes them workout-friendly with wing tips that keep them in place and a custom-designed driver for a bassier sound.

Easily fits in your pocket

These Beats earbuds boasts a new sound profile with elevated highs and lows as well as good overall clarity. When we put them through their paces with Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow’s INDUSTRY BABY, we found them to deliver the driving bass line followed by a vocal track that moves depending on which way you’re facing, supporting Apple Music’s Dolby Atmos. If you want the concert experience during your run or on core day, these are the best workout earbuds to get.
