While you’re out there living your best life at the gym, you may not realize the decibel levels there could be damaging your hearing. 🏋️

The World Health Organization (WHO) states exposure to noise levels above 85 decibels (dB) for prolonged periods can lead to hearing impairment. However, many fitness classes average noise levels well over 90 dB, with some between 100 to 110 decibels. This is around the dB level of a chainsaw or concert which can cause permanent hearing damage if exposed to for too long.

Next time you’re at the gym, there are two simple things you can do to protect your hearing if you’re concerned about the level of noise:

If you’re taking a fitness class, you can wear ear plugs.
👍No one will know they are ear plugs because they look just like earbuds.
👍If you’re exercising solo and wearing earbuds to listen to your own music, you can go into the settings on your phone or music device and make sure the dB level is below 85

We want to make sure you’re living your best life in 2024 and protecting your health, including your hearing, is one way to help make that possible.

If you’ve been rocking out too hard at the gym and you think you may have hearing loss, click https://www.unitron.com/us/en_us/contact.html?tabItem=find-clinic to find an audiologist near you for a quick and painless hearing test.

Los niños que tienen una audición típica comienzan a adquirir las habilidades del habla y del lenguaje en los primeros 6 meses de vida. Por esto, es importante hacerle a su hijo una prueba de audición temprana. Si una evaluación inicial indica que podría tener una pérdida auditiva, haga un seguimiento con un audiólogo pediátrico para asegurarse de que su hijo comience a recibir los servicios de intervención lo antes posible. Obtenga más información sobre estas pruebas y recursos para la pérdida de audición con nuestra hoja de información: https://go.nih.gov/jpY897z
