When it comes to working out, or fitness in general, it can be hard for some people to focus. Or get in the right headspace. Not all of us wake up with the desire to train hard and smash out a workout. For some it can take a bit of convincing and encouragement. However, there are things you can do to help focus your mind to the task at hand. One of these things is to get yourself a good pair of headphones to help you focus and get motivated. I was recently very kindly gifted a pair of the new JBL headphones to do an honest review on. So, after a few weeks of using them every day, here are my thoughts…
Headphones In General
Over the years I’ve been through many pairs of in-ear headphones trying to find the ONE. From the super cheap, to the super expensive – and everything in between!
I don’t recommend the ones that clip over the top of your ears as they never stay in place. Especially while doing HIIT workouts, or any kind of jumping around. I much prefer the ones that go right in your ear as they seem to be better at staying put.
Then you get the headphones that are so heavy, they fall out of your ears as soon as you even look at a gym! Not to mention if you get a little bit sweaty – they fall out and roll across the dirty floor! Or worse, they fall out while you’re running, making you lose focus, or go under a bush, or even in a muddy puddle.
The JBL Wireless Headphones
Yes, i was gifted these headphones to review, however, i would never say good things about them if i didn’t truly mean it. The JBL Live Pro+ TWS in-ear headphones have totally blown EVERY other pair i’ve tried out of the water.
These JBL wireless headphones are the most comfortable headphones i’ve ever tried. Yes, they may be a little more on the expensive side but they are worth every penny! They are the only in-ear headphones i’ve tried that fit perfectly. In fact, i have to keep checking they’re still in place as i can’t even feel them half the time.
They also have a great battery life. One charge of the case will give you up to 28 hours battery life. Plus, once the headphones are out of the case, you can have up to 7 hours charge in one go. Plenty of time to run your marathon, smash out an intense gym session, or go for a nice long walk if you’re looking to unwind with an audio book. Oh and also, the charger is a USB so you can charge it pretty much anywhere these days.
Added Extras
They also come with some amazing added extras. If you take one of the JBL headphones out of your ear, the music pauses. You can tap the left side once and it lowers the volume down so you can hear what’s going on around you. An amazing security feature for anyone who exercises alone. Tap the right side once to pause your music. Tap it twice and it changes the track. Plus you can also link them to your Alexa, or Google devices and ask about the weather, or the traffic! They also come in a range of colours – black, pink, white and cream. Plus they have a variety of different ear bud sizes so no matter the size and shape of your ears, there should be one that fits.

Swimming 🌊 🏊♀️
I absolutely love it and don’t get to do it enough our gym unfortunately doesn’t have a pool.
Would love a pink pair of headphones please!
Oh yes! That’s got to be one of my faves too. Do you use the underwater headphones? Found they were a game changer!
Walking! Love being outside and having time to myself. Any colour is great – they all go with nature.
Ooh I love that! Nature is beautiful. 😁
Riding horses is my favourite but for wearing earphones I do my own version of weight training by carrying water buckets! The black ones are gorgeous.
Oh amazing! I hear horse riding is great for the bum and thighs. 😀
I love walking netball
That sounds like such fun!
An average day for me on a building site is like going to the gym every day, lifting steel work into place carrying multiple 25kg bags of cement or hardwall from my van to site and humping 30kg sheets of plasterboard up 2 flights of stairs then fitting them above your head it’s all good fun but my favourite form of exercise is mountaineering in the Brecon Beacons and Snowdonia.
Wow! Sounds like you don’t need to exercise. Always wanted to go up Snowdon, the views look amazing.
I love to go for a bike ride with the family. White would be FANTASTIC!
Oh yes! I do love a bike ride too. Picnic in tow for a well earned break.
Swimming! Love it!
OOH yes! Do you use headphones while you swim? Takes it to a whole new level!
Walking!
Very true!
My favourite exercise is spinning classes.
Black would be great.
I hear you get VERY sweaty during a spin class…
Walking is my favourite form of exercise
A popular form of exercise it seems! 🙂
Body Pump
Sounds intense!
I love walking
Black please
Try to do at least 15k on my bike 4 times a week. The black ones are my favourite x
Wow that’s amazing! On sunny days i bet that’s great fun.
Walking and sort of jogging
Black please
I love that “sort of jogging” 🙂
I love running. Thank you for the great review. The headphones would be perfect for running as I’m still using cable ones.. not so handy 😁
If I could pick I would pick the black ones xx
Oh yes, these would be perfect for that. They have a button you can tap to really lower the music so you can hear whats going on around you witout having to take the headphones out. Such a great security feature!
I love walking with my guide and little dog in the countryside.
Colour black please.
Great competition 🤗
Aww what kind of dog do you have? I’d love to get a bedlington one day. Thank you for entering!
My favourite kind of exercise is walking or at home workouts! Would love the white if I won please 🙂
Walking is a great one! Great for the body and the mind. Awesome colour choice!
My favourite type of exercise is swimming!
Black would be amazing
Ooh yes! Swimming is such a good type of exercise. A good all body workout! The black ones are my faves too.
Walking
White please
OOH yes, the white ones are so sleek and classic! Can’t beat a good podcast while on a walk.
Kickboxing! And music would really set the mood, whether you want to go intense, soft or simply ALL OUT on that poor punching bag.
Black ones would be nice, the signature colour of JBL.
Arh yesss!! I’ve always wanted to get in to kickbxing. It looks amazing. These headphones would be perfect for your sessions.
