Whether you're lifting, running or squeezing in a quick session between errands, the last thing you want is a cable getting in the way or earbuds that won't stay put. The best wireless headphones make it easier to focus on your workout, but not every pair is built to handle sweat, motion and long sessions.
Fitness-focused headphones put different demands on design and performance.

Some are tuned for awareness during outdoor runs, while others aim to block distractions during intense training.
We've tested a wide range of wireless headphones and wireless earbuds that are suited for exercise, narrowing the list down to options that hold up during workouts and still work well for everyday listening. Below, you'll find our top picks, along with guidance to help you choose the right pair for how you train.
