Fit4Ever | Aqua Awesome Did you know that you can buy waterproof headphones that won’t get ruined if they get water on them?
Music is key to a great Aqua Fitness workout. If you are in a class, the instructor provides music. But what if you are working out on your own? If you are home in your own pool you can put speakers out by the pool. But if you are in a pool at a gym or Y, then you may want to investigate waterproof headphones.
Most Aqua workouts do not require you to submerge your head, so you might be able to get by with regular headphones that are connected by bluetooth to a phone or other music device. But sometimes when you are jumping around, headphones can fall off. That’s why waterproof headphones are so great. You do not have to worry about getting them wet if they drop.
H20 Audio Waterproof headphones
One of the best reviewed headphones for the pool are made by a company called H20 Audio, and they are available on Amazon. The problem with some waterproof headphones is that the sound quality is often tinny. If you read the reviews on the H20Audio headphones, however, you will see that these headphones get great sound. They also come with a 1-year warranty. These are wired headphones that you can use with a waterproof ipod or mp3 player.
Senso Bluetooth Waterproof headphones
If you are looking for bluetooth headphones instead of wired ones, then take a look at the Senso Bluetooth headphones. These are well reviewed with more than 20,000 reviews more than 100 answered questions on Amazon! These have great sound, are waterproof, and connect via Bluetooth to devices within 30 feet. You can leave your device on the deck and jump around with these in the pool no problem.
Underwater Audio Waterproof iPod Shuffle
My favorite way to work out in the pool by myself is with my waterproof iPod shuffle. Underwater Audio is a company that takes these small iPods made by Apple and waterproofs them. It is amazing because they looked feel just like a regular iPod, but they are waterproofed. You can buy just the iPod or the iPod with one of two choices of waterproof headphones. If you opt to get the headphones from them, go with the more expensive ones. The first time I bought my waterproof iPod I got the cheaper headphones and while they worked, the sound was not great. When I got better headphones, though, the sound was fabulous. Amazon has more than a 1,000 reviews with 4.5 stars average.
The way I use my iPod is I clip it to my hat. Most of the time, the device never gets wet. But I feel so much more secure knowing it is waterproof. Before I got this one I had a regular shuffle and I was always worried about what would happen if it dropped into the water. Although I do not swim with it, you can! It’s also nice to use if you are using it while working out on land and sweat a lot.
If you are interested in the fabulous waterproof iPod Shuffle that can go in the pool, I would look into it right away. Underwater Audio buys regular iPods in bulk and then modifies them with waterproofing. I am not sure how much longer iPods will be available because Apple has announced it is discontinuing them.
