I walk, ride a bicycle, and use an elliptical cycle to workout. What music gets you motivated? Care to share?

    I was thinking about this very question last weekend running in the rain. . .I've realized that music (or sometimes podcasts) aren't near as motivating as they just alleviate the ennui of slogging through 10+ miles on the run or anytime I'm force to use a "dread"mill.

    That said Falling Up (especially the Exit Lights remix album and Captiva) provide excellent tempo for a comfortable pace. Pillar-"Frontline" and Thousand Foot Krutch-"Phenomenon" are mainstays in any playlist I might create.

    I typically like to listen to music that makes me want to dance, nothing sad and slow. When I get the urge to dance I just run instead or ride faster

    Works great for me
  • I love working out to Chevelle, Protest the Hero, Rage Against the Machine, Tool, Every Time I Die. I've got a lot haha
