I listen to pretty much all types of music. What are your suggestions?

    GNR, Enimem, JayZ seem to work for me… even though I am more a Texas country music fan, these just make me work out a bit harder. I save the country for when I'm dancing around the house singing.

    me too! I love all kinds! But I find "Tub Thumping" by Chumba Wumba quite motivating!! Most people mistake the name, and call it, "I get knocked down" also, I know its a little slow sometimes but I love "fight song" and "hit me with your best shot" "let the bodies hit the floor" "shake your tail feather" especially when I'm dancing!! Lol

    Big Girls Don't Cry, Eye of the Tiger, Tub Thumping, I Hate Everything About You.. can't think of the rest as they blur, but these first ones get me through the toughest "getting started" part of the workout that always seems to be the worst.

    Let It Go is my warm-up track! Then I go for some HIIT intervals with Flashdance (What A Feeling), plus Queen and ABBA. They seem to push the right buttons to get me to my max! Then a bit of Shake It Off to finish!

    If you like drums and bagpipes, nothing can get you up a hill like Clanadonia, Keepin it Tribal :), particularly Tu-Bardh and Hamster Heid:

    For me it's mainly a mix of hard alternative rock and hip hop -- but the song that has gotten me the most pumped up over the last few years has been Game - Red Nation (feat. Lil' Wayne). It's the perfect song for exercise.

    I like the Rap Strength Training station on Pandora. It's actually not a lot of rap but awesome club/dance music. Gets me pumped every time.

    Speaking of drums and bagpipes I'd throw a lot of dropkick murphys songs in the mix as well. They're pretty high energy and great for exercising.

    I saw DKM in concert, they get you pumped for sure!
