Are these good for doing squats with? How about using them to sleep in for recovery?? THanks!

For squatting they're certainly usable but they're not top of the line. If you really want to invest good money into saving your knees from years of squats, I would highly recommend going the extra mile with some Rehband knee sleeves or SBD knee sleeves. However, those sleeves are only for squatting and leg lifting weight exercises and might only be worth it if you squat frequently and with heavy weights. As for sleeping, you shouldn't be wearing these or any other sleeves when sleeping, I would suggest simply letting your knee air out during and relax during sleep but if you have a knee injury that really does hurt a wrap of some sort would most likely be better for compression. Hope this helps.

I do cardio type exercises and these are just fine. I also sleep with them on and find they do a great job at keeping my knees warm and compressed.

I don't have the experience to give you a positive answer however I don't see why not!

Squats? I have worn mine during squats and they stayed up just fine. Not sure how much compression you're looking for. These are comfortable enough to wear all day (or sleep in) without being tight enough to cause my calves to ache by evening. I really like mine; they do exactly what I need of them.

My son injured his knee in football to where he had a stretched PCL muscle which is in the back of the knee. He wears these for Basketball and weight lifting. My advice is to check with your doctor to see if you can do squats or it just depends upon the injury to your knee. My son doesn't use them to sleep in. I don't know if this answers your question but he seems to think it works perfectly.

I actually didn't with them as I primarily used them for a concert, but I'd have to assume they would be perfectly comfortable to sleep with. They don't feel heavy or seem to strain your ears as some headphones might when you sleep with them.

really good, they won't move around at all, i use them all the time when lifting weights and on the stationary bike. The sweat can be a problem, but just wipe it off from time to time and it shouldn't be a big deal.

Yes, I've worn them for sleeping for a few years now due to noisy neighbors. They are comfortable with multi-hour use; sometimes a new pair can seem a bit large when first worn (hurting my ear a bit, but I have small ears). If this happens, I just pull them out a bit and all is well. And they do stay in all night if you insert them according to the directions on the package (pull ear up and back, roll the plug tightly and insert). I don't know what I'd do without these, they are a lifesaver as far as my sleep!

Are fine for squats. You need a racking point to start from and then these stands are good safety measure for the bottom of your motion.

Speak with your doctor. I didn't wear them. Assuming you are lying down and your legs are even or raised above your heart you should not need to wear them to sleep in.

not well, i wouldn't recommend buying these for working out. i love these headphones to death, but they are more for listening to while sitting up or laying down still

Hi John, I bought these mainly for TV viewing when my wife wants quiet, the volume control was a big plus for me. They have good sound, great noise cancellation, but are pretty bulky. They are fine for working out , including rowing and elliptical, and lifting. I think they would be uncomfortable to run with, and probably would slosh around. Although they do have a snug yet comfortable fit. Hope this helps. Steve

It depends on what you mean good for sleep. They are bulky so if you sleep on your back, yes. Any other position, maybe quite uncomfortable.

I use them for strength training on my squat/dead days and they work great. They are a level 1, so it's gives light support, but it's mainly for mild compression and joint warmth to help with blood flow. I don't have any joint issues though, so these level 1 sleeves work for me.

Hi Alex,I would say that you're probably safe to fall asleep in these occasionally. The build quality is very impressive, and you do get a 2 year warranty on the M-100's. As long as you don't make a habit out of it, consistently sleeping in these headphones, I'd wager you'll be safe!

I use these for sleeping. I don't like the foam ones for environmental reasons / how frequently you have to dispose - I can wash these & reuse - the ridges seem a little softer too, which is nice - I can insert them to block almost all noise; but also adjust them so I can hear conversation but block or muffle a lot of the surrounding noise around me.

I wouldn't particularly use them for that purpose. They provide great wrist support for lifting, but no support or padding for the hands and striking.

At 5'6", these work for me whether I squat ass to grass or to parallel. You will need a squat stand for your bar. These are not squat stands. They are safeties for your squat stands.

I'm not sure of why you would want to sleep with these on?.... but I can say they are great for the gym if you running on the treadmill or any other high pace exericise or movement. before I started using these, I was using the (white in color) ones that come with the phone. I notice two, things I didn't like.... first, when the cord moves when you are exericising, I can hear the movement..... second, the bud ear piece was not sound proof and you can hear things around you (people talking, exerice machines, etc.) and the bud piece hurts my ear... so I got the JVC Sport Clip and they are much better... !!! jmo.....

Yes they would be great for crossfit training. I started out using them for their support after long bicycle rides; but now I use them for any strenuous activity I do.
