I’ve found Anker Soundcore X are good. 12 month warranty and their customer service is pretty good. I have killed pairs of them previously but they’ve always replaced them.

I think my days of trying to buy sweat proof (bluetooth) headphones are over. I’ve been through loads of pairs including 3 pairs of Betron MRJ1060’ this year, twice replaced on warranty, which I actually really liked but didn’t last just like all the others 
I’ve plumped for a cheap pair for under £4 from ebay and if they last more than a few months I’ll be happy.
Years of issues with earphones, bought Soundpeats last year…no more problems. 
Pretty cheap too.

Anker Soundbuds. Been using them for 2 years on the trainer and never had any issues. They stay put too.

I use Sony extra bass earbuds on the trainer and in my woodshop. New they’re around $50, but I bought a couple of pair used on ebay for like $8 each. Never had a pair fail over years of use. As a bonus they sound pretty good too https://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDRXB50AP-Extra-Earbud-Headset/dp/B00JRD13T8
How do these do with sweat? I have AirPods but I’m a heavy sweater, and I’m worried about accidental Electro Convulsive Therapy.
I’m on Samsung Gear Circle. Sound quality… not bad, but really don’t care when having a workout on SS…
What like most: really comfortable and they are having a plastic (removable) arch which holds everything in place around your neck. So ideal not only for cycling but also for running and gym workouts.
Also - a button for track skip (i.e. next track) and nice way of volume control - swipe in an area around the button.
One thing which is irritating is it does not have a built-in battery level indicator. You can check the level only on your mobile (and you need a Samsung app for this).
Can totally recommend it.

I sweat a lot, never had any issue. I even wear them in the sauna.

+1 for the Jabra Elite 65t.
I pull three sheets of paper towel off a roll. I leave them connected and put it over my head.
This is long enough so that the middle sheet goes on the top of my head and the two end sheets go over both ears.
Then I put my over ear headphones on.
This way no sweat damages the headphones and anything I listen to is far better and more trainer noise is eliminated than if using any in ear headphones.
I’ve never found it too hot.

I tried the Jaybird x3 they would stay in my ear until i started sweating. Then I would have to constantly push them back into my ear canal. Tried the different size ear hole things ,but I couldn’t find a winner. I’m now trying Bragi “The Headphone”. I’ve been using them for about a year. They stay in my ear and the straps on my helmet don’t rub or hit them in any way. They have been ridden in a full on down pour with no sparks or shocks. The charge last about 3 hours so not the best thing for those epic rides. Good Luck!
I second @Bplgocards. I sweat a ton (ring-my-shirt-out sweat) and the AirPods have been great. I have used them for almost every ride through SSB I & II MV and half of Build MV so far. I then use them at work almost daily. I know they are expensive, but they fit my ears perfectly and have been a great, trouble-free product with solid sound.
Damn, now I sound like an Apple fan-boy. I’m typing this on a Dell FWIW.

How long does the charge last on them? Enough for a 2 hour workout?
I get about 4-5 hours per charge, but they recharge in their case very fast.
I love my Monster iSport Freedoms. Over ear keeps out most of the trainer noise.
I use Jabea 65t also.
Great phones for running and indoor workouts.
So these came from Amazon, and used them during a workout this morning: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DXRQZ15/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Work great. Sound pretty good (CERTAINLY plenty good to watch TV/racing/etc during a workout), and sound carries in them fine even with trainer, fan, and my HVAC unit running 3 feet away from me in the closet. Can’t beat it for $19.95. Bluetooth worked flawlessly paired to apple TV 15’ away.
