I GET ANNOYED AS HELL WHEN I TRY TO TRAIN WITH HEADPHONES, WIRES, AND CRAP HOOKED UP!

[JETHRO TULL]

FOR CARDIO...YES, I CAN WEAR MY I-POD OR HEADPHONES OR WHATEVER.

WHEN IT COMES TO LIFTING I GET BUGGED RE-ARRANGING WIRES, TRYING TO TUCK THEM IN, ETC.

I DO ABOUT TWO SETS AND START TO GET REALLY ANNOYED AND JUST TAKE THEM OFF AND PUT IT AWAY IN MY GYM BAG.

I LIKE TO THINK ABOUT MY NEXT EFFORT NOT IF THE HEADPHONES ARE GOING TO GET CAUGHT IN THE HAMMER-STRENGTH ROW HANDLE.

THAT'S JUST ONE EXAMPLE.

I DON'T EVEN LIKE WEARING A WATCH. I DO THAT SO I CAN EAT ON TIME, BUT OTHER THAN THAT....SCREW IT.

ANY OF YOU GUYS OR GALS FEEL LIKE THAT?

I've litterally ruined 5 pair of ear bud earphones by getting them caught on something. I cant beleive someone hasnt came out with a wireless ear bud yet for the Ipod. Maybe they have and I just havent seen them or cant afford them

 

[kidstuff]

i thought i was the only one.

 

[JETHRO TULL]

EXACTLY! I GET FRUSTRATED OR DISTRACTED AT THE WORST TIMES.

I'LL HAVE SOME AC/DC OR GODSMACK CRANKED UP, LAY BACK WITH SOME HEAVY DUMBELLS FOR A SET OF BENCHES AND ONE OF THOSE EAR PHONES WILL COME OUT OR SOMETHING...

IT THROWS EVERYTHING OFF MENTALLY AND I JUST WANT TO JERK EVERYTHING OFF AND STOMP THE PLAYER INTO SMITHERINES! LOL.

I DON'T WANT TO MAKE AN ASS OF MYSELF SO...I'VE SIMPLY STOPPED WEARING THEM WHILE TRAINING. NOW, I HAVE TO LISTEN TO WHATEVER GAY SHIT THE GYM I AM IN HAPPENS TO BE PLAYING.

AT LEAST I CAN FOCUS ON MY SETS.

It doesn't bother me till I do crunches or declined presses/flies and they fall out.

I just had this happen tonight at the gym. Layed back with dumbells, and just as I hit the bench, my left earphone fell out. I find that no matter how focused I am, that headphone falling out causes me to loose it for a second. Haven't decided if I am going to ditch the ipod yet, because the gym music is just horrible.

ULUWATU, RIGHT!

I JUST DON'T FEEL LIKE A SAVAGE WHEN I MINCING AROUND ADJUSTING, FIDDLING, AND PISSING AROUND IN GENERAL. I DON'T HAVE NEARLY AS GOOD OF A LIFTING SESSION. RUINS IT FOR ME.

I used to always catch the wires on something and either it would yank the headphones out of my ear or it would yank the wire out of the main unit. Either way it is one of those things like biting my tongue that causes and instantaneous feeling of angst; not sure why but it does. So I bought one of those wireless headsets that have the headphones and radio all-in-one. It is a little bulky(and my wife says I look like a retard); but nonetheless it got the job done. However, there are only a few manufacturers of these and they all are pieces of shit that last a few months at best. So now I finally found a unit that actually fits around my arm and I simply tuck the wires down my shirt. When I am doing arms I put it in a fanny pack and run the wires through my shirt. I have been doing this for the past few months and so far I have had very few wire incidents.

THANKS! NOW, I KNOW WHAT TO ASK FOR FOR CHRISTMAS!

 

[grumpy69]

Yea

I would get so sick of my headpohone wires being disconnected by dumbells, etc so I got these. You just plug a little adapter in the ipod where the headphones usually go and you have a 30 foot range. I am pretty rough with mine and I have had to get a new pair two times in the last year. They get a lot of use and the Best Buy warranty always replaces them for free. The way I see it, I have headphones for life!

Try running the wire under your shirt and use a paper clip to clip the wire to your collar (with a little slack for movement). The buds IPod comes with have a tiny clip but like most people I trashed it before I realized what it was for.

I've had wireless earbuds for my iPod for sometime. They run $149.00 plus tax, but I dig em.

As much as I DISPISE Bluettoth products I bought a pair of Bluetooth headphones. My phone has MP3 songs on it, the headphones are wireless and if I have to take an important call I can. Although rarely do I find a call worth interrupting my set! I bought them after damn near ripping my ear off when the wire got caught on a dumbell!

Dang! A gym with good music! That is a one in a million gym

Hey JT I just thread my wires underneath my t-shirt to avoid haveing them hang out and getting casught on stuff.

Since then I haven't ripped them out of my ears for months

 

[MAINEVENT]

For this reason alone is why i dont use those things. Well that, and the fact that i dont know how to download songs that well.

Our gym recently turned into a private club. Its not the best gym in the world, but you can do anything you want to. Hell, if you wanted to train in your posing trunks and put on your own music you could if you wanted to.

That's what I do.

pretty simple solution. my total meathead buddy cant grasp the concept either and puts the wire between his teeth for most of his workout. under my shirt and in my pocket, and i never have a problem.
