For me it's T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever) by will.i.am ft. Jennifer Lopez & Mick Jagger. When I'm getting tired or need to get through a challenging exercise, I turn this song on and it gives me the extra push I need!!
I could use more upbeat songs like this to keep me motivated! What song(s) gives you that extra push to finish your workout?

    Black eyed Peas "I gotta feeling", "Taking Care of Business" by BTO, I am not a fan of Lady Ga Ga, but "Bad Romance" has a great beat.

    I start and end every workout with this song. Sometimes I play it a few times in the middle. Eventually, I'm going to hate this song.

    Meatloaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Lights. I have no idea why, but when doing C25k I can't tell you how many time that song would come on and I would just get energized.

    Any song that is pretty fast paced. I love listening to Lady gaga songs, or katy Perry. those always pump me up. I liked katy perry's song ET. that's a good song to run too. otherwise, random angry rock music gives me motivation. i run and work out my aggressions.
