I find that I do better in the gym if I've got good music to workout to but my playlist is getting kind of old. Does anybody have music suggestions? What are your favorite songs to workout to?

    I love Flyleaf's Memento Mori album. Her music is all really good, if you enjoy that kind of music. Plus a lot of fast paced metal (because that's really just my style). But it's definitely not for everyone. ;)
  • Here is my workout playlist. I'm always on the lookout for more songs!
    Some of these are popular and some very unknown, several in various languages but they make a great lineup, especially when on shuffle!

    My Beloved – a really good Russian rock song
    Witchdoctor – From the Chipmunks movie
    Sober – Pink
    Piel Morena - Thalia
    Men in Black – Will Smith
    Somos Mar y Arena – Agina
    Everytime We Touch – Cascada

    Eminem - I only listen to him (rap) at the gym.

    I like Rihanna, Britney Spears, LMFAO, (the list goes on and on)... any music that I could dance to works... that includes club music. I need upbeat, get up and move music.

    I use Pandora on my phone as I work out. If you're familiar with that, try Cyclone Radio - it has some great workout music.

    Not sure how far afield their music reaches, but I'm currently working out to UK Dubstep band "Nero" - Very high intensity throughout the majority of their music.

    Seriously, add me as a friend, I update my feed with songs that I really dig for biking/working out. Just earlier I posted Flo' Rida's "In the Ayer" which is a fantastic song for keeping pace. My exercise is measured by song number right now (that i convert to minutes) and it's great!

    Heavy Metal is the best, the aggression helps you go above and beyond

    I like Black Eyed Peas, Disturbed, Puddle of Mudd, Awolnation, Kitty, pretty much anything that has a good beat. I tend to lean toward the "angry music" as my friends like to call it!

    Try this website for some new workout playlists:

    www.rockmyrun.com

    As long as it is 60 minutes or less, you can get one free playlist each month.
  • Workout music all depends on the type of workout for me. During high intensity training sessions, I like music that gets me amped up with an intense beat. During heavy strength training or cardio, I like music where the lyrics remind me of why I'm training. Here's a sample of my workout playlist.

    Crashed-Daughtry
    Play-David Banner
    It's All About the Benjamins (rock mix)-P. Diddy
    Dropping Plates-Disturbed
    'Till I Collapse-Eminem

    Thanks for all the great suggestions. No more boring playlist for me:bigsmile:
  • David Guetta's album "Nothing but the Beat" is AMAZING for working out. Every single song is upbeat and keeps me going non-stop when I'm at the gym. LMFAO's latest album is also really great for working out!

    If you go to iTunes and search Workout Music there is a few albums that have 60 mins of popular songs that have been altered so the beat is fast and amazing! Between those songs, and Skrillex... it keeps me moving nonstop!
