Badass!

    I usually do some sort of techno...sandstorm-esque. But sometimes good classical piano is a nice contrast to the intensity of my workout. Very calming when doing sprints on the treadmill or something.

    I realized I like violent angry rap music. d12 fight music, Kanye West - Monster, almost anything by eminem. Yeah, it just gets me angry and motivated.

    I like rock or industrial... I need something with a fast, hard beat to keep me going.

    My favorite running song is "You're Going Down" by Sick Puppies. Totally pump-worthy song ;)

    Manowar

    Though I totally agree with a previous poster about classical music. Nothing better for focusing, for me.

    from rap to rock to hard *kitten*.

    sometimes you gotta slap on a little Pantera when lifting...works nicely.

    ACDC always works!
