What music gets you motivated in the gym?!

kettle_belle83

I'm in need of some new tunes to add to my gym playlist. What are some of your favorite songs to workout to? I like all genres pretty much.

Last Friday Night by Katy Perry is a good cardio song.

I like Sexy and I Know it by LMFAO when I am lifting weights.

Crazy Train by Ozzy Ozbourne always kicks me into high gear.

I'm all about the Reliant K album, MMHMM, when I work out. The songs are very up-tempo and pretty similar in tempo--maybe not the most versatile band, but consistency is great for me when I'm exercising.

I'm personally mainly a fan of music that is pop-rock or classic rock styles. Some of my favorite gym songs:

Anything off Cage the Elephant's first album
Anything off Muse's Black Holes and Revelations album (actually most Muse is good, but this album has the most fast, upbeat songs... perfect for the gym)
Miss Independent - Kelly Clarkson
Don't Stop -Fleetwood Mac
Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac
Shattered - The Rolling Stones

...I know there are more but I can't think of them right now.

Am a fan of all types of music but when it comes to gymming it up the music has to have a good beat, no matter what the genre. Few tracks that i play on random..

Axwell - nothing but love
ellie goulding - under the sheets
foster the people - pumped up kicks
Tinchy Styder - Something about your smile
Chase and Status - Hitz
Kanye West - Gold Digger
Flo Rida - Wild one
Sean Paul - She doesn't mind
Chris Brown - Turn up the music
Pitbull - Give me everything
Limp Bizkit - Rolling (always a great pick me up when you need that extra push!)
Friendly Fires - Paris
NERD - She wants to move
Michael Jackson - Man in the mirror
Modest Mouse - Float on
Nero - Innocence
Justin Timberlake - Like i love you
Jay z - run this town

i generally repeat a song if it has motivated me more to maintain the edge. I find it pretty tough to train without music unless its strength training.
