In the gym - what do you use?

Atrio M5 with stock foam tips. I tried the KSC75, but the lack of isolation was a problem because my gym is noisy. Plus the pads got sweaty, which felt weird. Before the Atrio, I used the Shure E2c and SE110.

EP360s - used to use SCL4s, but that kinda helped cause a couple RMAs I think (latest product is for sale) - they do just fine

Hah, are you going to the gym or just moving your listening room?

It took me about 10 seconds to compare the EX85 with the MDR-AS50. The AS50 sounds like a transistor radio compared to the ex85. We'll, I am sort of exaggerating, but you get the point. I also find the ex85 more comfortable. The AS50 exerts too much pressure for my taste. If the AS50 is an indication of a good "sports" earphone, better to stick with at least the marshmallow. If I can find a local place that sells the Senn sports models, I would like to try one of those. Thanks for all of the tips on this site.

I took some advice from this forum and just used my Shure SE530's. I used the modified triple flange, found here:

They fit extremely well and gave me the sound I was looking for without falling out.
They lasted through the sweat and all the activity that my one hour and a quarter workout produced.

Thanks for all the information.

I do recommend the Westone 3 with silicon grey sleeves due to their excellent noise isolation and great seal. Unlike a previous post where the user found the W3 falling off halfway with the sleeves, I felt that the seal was great due to the air-tightness of it.

And an iPod Touch would be lightweight and very functional if you are using the Nike + kit.
