Hey all - I was a radio DJ back in college... I know how music can make or break a workout. Here's some of my current favorites on heavy rotation on my "gymin' it" playlist. I'm not saying all of these are lyrically great, or that they will suite everyones tastes but they all have a good beat. Share your list! I need to find some new tunes.

ARTIST PLAYLIST

The Rapture - Whoo! Alright Yeah... Uh huh
The Rumble Strips - Hands

M.I.A. - Paper Plan or Sunshowers
YACHT - See a penny
Electric Six - Danger High Voltage
Datarock - Fa-Fa-Fa
Brazilian Girls - Dont Stop
