When you're on that last home stretch during a run and you're struggling what's one (cause I'm sure there's a few)song that brings the beast out of you to finish? One of mine is...
Corey Hart- I wear my sunglasses at night

    I hate cardio but a song that gets me pumped is Kanye West's "Monster". Plus it's like 8 minutes long so it passes the time well.

    When I'm lifting I like Rage Against the Machine.

    When I'm doing hypertrophy I like early 90s hip hop...Naughty by Nature lol.

    And in real life I listen to blue grass.

    Monster's got such a heavy beat too.

    Renegades is a perfect pace song for me. I didn't discover how good it was until midway through my first 5k. I stopped running mid race to put it on repeat.

    I'm enjoying Nathan Lanier "Velocity" lately for lifting.

    My top two bring it home or push me through songs when I'm lifting. But they can also work for the last bit of a run.

    Beast - Rob Bailey
    Meet the Monster - FFDP

    I think it's the beat. It's a consistent bump throughout, I like to keep up with the pace of the song.
