    Metal or hardcore rap. Stuff that gets your blood pumping.

    When I'm running outside, nothing.
    When I'm in the gym I stream Rock the Block on Spotify. I have no idea why because I don't normally listen to rock music.

    I have a "Zombies Run" playlist that has become my general default cardio/exercise list. It's a weird combination of metal, industrial, techno, pop, and whatever else I like.

    Upbeat top 40's/Pop for cardio and ITunes has a channel for cardio mixes. For lifting, I only listen for a little bit prior to lift to get me pumped, mostly harder stuff, hip hop/rap/house with a heavy beat. Don't listen and lift at the same time as it gets to be distracting.

    Fallout Boy, Empire of the Sun, Imagine Dragons, Martin Garrix, Nickelback, One Republic, Florence + The Machine. I have many different likes but Fallout Boy has some good upbeat songs that are excellent for the elliptical. Helps me increase the pace.

    I like " I love it" or "emergency " by Icona Pop. Or any other kind of thing that has a steady, upbeat kind of pacing... When I listen to them I start walking to the beat.

    If I'm not watching recorded shows on TV, I'm listening to a vast list of music. Pop, Rap, Rock, Classic Rock, Blues/Jazz, Oldies, etc. My music collection is ever-expanding and gigantic, so I never get tired of it.

    Totally depends on my mood. Some days it's Tech N9ne. Some days it's Chris Stapleton.

    I literally just posted this on my wall this morning:

    "I find that the perception of heaviness in music is only relative to the quiet parts; if you spent all day listening to Death and Obituary, then switching to Deicide doesn't have much of an impact. Which is why this morning I created a playlist for the gym that mainly consists of music from Nicki Minaj, Justin Beiber, Olly Murs, Katy Perry, Jessie J and Bruno Mars, with just a select few songs from Arch enemy and Napalm death thrown in. The steady pulse of the bouncy pop music is just enough to hold me, nodding my head, in that happy, semi-absent daze that I usually work out in. Then all of a sudden some guy (or gal) goes "BLAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGGGHHHH" right into my brain, and I find that I'm immediately 66.6% stronger."

    So that's what I listen to.

    Good question! ! Actually Spotify has a pretty good selection of workout music ... you can probably start there. .. in my case (I do mostly spinning ) I like music with short beats to speed up my session ... I hope this is useful ;)
