    Anything by Linkin Park is great to exercise to!!

    I second this! Rammstein is a good band to work out to also. They're German though so unless you speak German don't expect to understand it. :tongue:

    ETA - Anything by NIN works well for me too.

    For me it's not necessarily the music. It's the length & pace. I try and have 7 minutes of fast pace and a 2-3 minute medium pace.
    Mots of the, I know by heart and can sing to them, my body is just used to the beat. When I hear a specific song at the bar enough times I know by heart, I add it to the play list.

    I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but I really love the mixes that are available on rockmyrun.com. I have a couple rock/pop mixes that I use over and over again for both running and weightlifting, they are super motivating and are mixed to be at a good tempo. I would definitely recommend giving them a shot!

    I love listening to Jay-Z when I run; besides that I think 90s Hip-Hop works best for me.
    These suggestions are so fun!
