I myself am a closet reggae fan and find it irresistable to stand still when I hear it. King of the Dancehall makes me wanna dance so bad I was swerving from dancing so much while driving a little while ago.... And I find exercise much more fun with music. Anyone else wanna chime in?

    I'm a bit embarrassed to admit it, ah, no who am I kidding, no I'm not.

    Britney. I :heart: her music for working out. Her last CD (Blackout) was so delightful and is always in the workout music rotation.

  • I posted the same question 30 minutes before this one in Motivation and hardley anyone answered. Is it me? No one cares if I asked the question? I know, mine was harder because I asked specifics. I see how it is now. Yes I am hurt. Thank you very much. :sad: :sad: :sad:

    Just kidding, I am just a little hurt.

    It is funny we had the same idea. I thought it would have been nice to get some good idea's on upbeat music to run to. It is a shame it didn't catch on more.
