    I listen to alot of Rave/House music, I love the fast beats and how long most of the songs are. Makes my workout go that much faster. I go to alot of raves and I dance my tush off, so I get in the same mind frame at the gym.

    I go to the gym at the same time everyday, and everyday judge judy is on. SOoOoOo...I watch/listen to that lol. When commercials come on, usualy hard rock or comedy, nothing like a little dane cook laughter to keep you going.

    Today I had a workout playlist I made last night:

    Killer Queen // Queen
    Starships // Nicki Minaj
    Gold on the Ceiling // The Black Keys
    If I Had You // Adam Lambert
    You Know I'm No Good // Amy Winehouse
    Womanizer // Britney Spears
    I Do // Colbie Caillat

    and a few others but my workout was short so not all of them played. Anything I'm into recently that's upbeat and gets me excited.

    For weights I generally listen to something heavy. No I'm not talking about Avenged Sevenfold or anything that fits into the rap/rock genre. (except RATM....the ONE exception to this rule) Try The Chariot if you want to hear the heaviest of all heavys. They light their guitar amps on fire during their shows for crying out loud, and I have never seen a crazier more energetic show. (and ive seen some nutzo stuff) Or maybe something a little more punk rock and angsty like mewithoutYou or Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs first albums. Idk

    For running or biking I like to listen to actual hip hop like Mos Def, Talib Kwali, Watch the Throne, Wu-Tang, Notorious BIG, (Tupac can suck it!). Or I'll go for something incredibly quiet and relaxing. Depends on the day I guess. If I can fall asleep to it, its perfect for a good outdoors run or ride. ie) Sirgur Ros, Damien Jurado, The National, Bon Iver, or pretty much anything that has just an acoustic guitar and beautiful vocals.

    I listen to pretty much everything from classical piano ballads to The Chariot....(seriously, check them out haha) so at some point pretty much everything is on my playlist. However, if you can hear it on a major radio station....odds are I don't listen to it because it's watered down garbage, and it probably sounds just like the last ten songs you heard before it. In my opinion, if the general population will like it, it's not worth listening to. Not always the case...I do love Adele and a couple others that win grammys.

    I found this website a couple of weeks ago and it has tons of great workout music. It's set up for walking, running and cycling by beats per minute / miles per hour but I found great songs for any kind of workout.

    The Jay-Z / Linkin Park Collision Course collaboration is one of my favorites. Also, like Motley Crue, Hollywood Undead, Seether, and the new B.O.B. album.

    good choices!

    I listen to Chromeo. If you like dancy 80s throwback with more bass, this is for you. It's like Prince and Huey Louis n the news on crack. Disco, techno. Real move you music. Trust me. And friend me! I got so much motivation to deal out. Could use some back too!
