I am currently using Sennheiser's ocx 686g but they're just staring to lose connection to the port when the cable gets pushed around, so I was looking to see if there's anything better than just replacing these every 3-5 years at a ~100$ price point wired preferred but not a hard deal breaker or anything

Maybe a little higher for your budget, but I think we can get you the best of both worlds.

Grab a set of two pin FiiO UTWS3 and Moondrop Arias. Boom. You got wireless Bluetooth ear-hook modules, which I find work great for working out, and your can rock wired, if you feel like it.

Bonus - you can use the FIIO UTWS3 with any other 2 pined or MMCX iem. Actually looks like the UTWS3 is cheaper in the MMCX version, so grab yourself so MMCX iems, if you don't already have some.
