Workout Playlist

Runninginmyconverse · May 2014

I'm needing some new music to get me motivated while working out. I listen to more rock music but during my workout I need something that has a good fast beat. I just added Katy Perry's Dark Horse. Something like that would be great. What do you recommend from your playlist?

Here's mine:

Don't Stop Believing, Journey
Stronger, Kelly Clarkson
Burn, Ellie Goulding
Wake Me Up, Avicci

And my nerdy stuff from the Pitch Perfect Soundtrack:
Bellas Finals
Don't Stop the Music
Since U Been Gone
Cups

What I do is go on Amazon and look for the workout compilations (like, rock workout music) and listen to the samples and buy that way. I mean, aside from my Pitch Perfect nerd stuff

For me, anything by Lindsey Stirling is good.
