Swimsuit season has already begun for many of us, so it's high time to do buckle down on that fitness regimen and do some last minute toning. Dragging yourself to the gym day after day can be such a chore, which is why you should make sure you're motivated once you get there. Music is the perfect way to add some fun to any workout. You can start by picking up a gym-worthy MP3 player. Or if you already have a device well suited to your fitness routine (most flash-based players will do), consider picking up a fitness-friendly pair of headphones. Trust us: there's nothing more irritating than constantly reinserting an earbud during long periods of bouncy activity. All the pairs below offer a secure fit, so you can avoid the dangle.

| The Bottom Line | The Sony MDR-AS50G Active Headphones offer an affordable price tag, a secure fit, and good sound quality--they're a fantastic option for gym addicts. | Ultimate Ears' no-frills Super.fi 3 Studio in-ear headphones deliver a clear, balanced audio response. This set should be your top choice in the $100 price range. | Compared to the range of options out there for Bluetooth MP3 player headphones, the Logitech FreePulse Wireless Headphones offer exceptional design and value. | Workout enthusiasts with a penchant for bright green will be happy with these highly stable, excellent-sounding in-ear headphones. | The Sony MDR-AS40EX earphones are a good choice for fitness fiends with limited cash to spend and a preference for an earclip design. | AirDrives Interactive Earphones are a good choice for active users with average-size ears who don't want to stick earbuds into their ear canals and prefer less low-end response. |
