What is your favorite workout song that keeps you pumped up and want to push on especially during that last mile/set/minute/etc when it feels like you're about to die and you have no energy but you're so close to the finish line?
I'm trying to discover new workout songs and create a new playlist.

Genre doesn't matter.

Mine is: Disclosure - You & Me ft. Eliza Doolittle (Flume Remix)

    My current go-to song is "Happy" by Pharrell Williams. I'm sure I'll sicken of it eventually, but... Can't. Stop. Playing. It.

    I'm in a weird pop mood lately. Tonight's workout playlist included Rihanna's "Where Have You Been?, "Please Don't Stop The Music" and "Only Girl (In the World)", Maroon 5's "Lucky Strike" and "Tickets", Britney's "Work B*tch", Ellie Goulding's "Burn", and Gaga's "Applause". For the heck of it, I chucked in the cheeseball "I See You Baby (Fatboy Slim Radio Edit)" by Groove Armada because it makes me grin like an idiot.

    I also have a ton of techno, rock & hipster-ish alternative, but just not feelin' it lately.

    BTW, that Disclosure track is sweet.

    Depends on the workout, but ...

    Running - She wolf - Sia&David Guetta

    Abs - Ellie Goulding - Only you; Kelly Clarckson - People like us

    HIIT - Fall Out Boy - The Phoenix; 30 Seconds to Mars - Up in the Air

    You can tell I'm a huge Les Mills classes fan, obviously... :bigsmile:

    Eminem's Lose Yourself. Definitely at the end of my run. That song helps push me to the finish line.

    Links 2 3 4 by Rammstein seems to be a perfect lock to my running place. Plus it's a march, so it feel natural to sync stride to it.

    If I'm getting to the end of a race I'll have Pretty In Casts by Pig Destroyer kick in. Seems to scare me into running faster.

    I mostly prefer older electronica with 135 - 140 bpm to keep an optimal pace and heart rate. One of my favorites is Atomic Dance Explosion by trance[]control

    Maino- "All the Above"

    But I'm pretty sure the song "I'm the Man" Aloe Blacc would get me pretty pumped even though I'm not a man hahaha.

    That Groove Armada song needs a fresh remix... All I can say is thank goodness this song was released in the pre-twerk era. Sing it with me... "I see you Miley, shakin' that aaaaaaaaaazzzzz....."

    FYI: Steve Aoki has a free hour-long podcast called "Aoki's House". I subscribe on iTunes, but it's available through other podcast websites, too. It's rather awesome - like having him as your personal workout DJ!
