Workout Playlist

Hey Pals!

I started going to the gym this week, but found that I was missing a good playlist to listen to during my workouts.

I'd like to know --- what song gets you pumped up the most? What are your top 5 songs that really keep you going?

I'm not particular on the genre, I like all of it.

Go! :)

Thanks,
Brandi

    For me, I tend to kick up my cardio while listening to Hard Rock = Rage Against the Machine, Korn, Manson, NIN or Techno/Dance = the Madonna Confessions album is really good. Also artists like Kaskade, Calvin Harris, Tiesto. :)

    I can't just listen to any music with my cardio, I have to have it be at least 135bpm in order for it to not slow my walking/running down. It can be slower for weights or isometric exercise. I'm fortunate that my brother teaches step aerobics classes, and he shares his mixes with me. I would probably not know any of the current music at all if it weren't for these mixes. Obviously, the way the songs flow into each other is really well, but there are certain individual songs that I have found give me that extra motivation:

    Picking Up the Pieces - Paloma Faith
    Blow Me One Last Kiss - Pink
    Do You Remember? - Jay Sean
    What Do You Want From Me? - Adam Lambert
    Renegade - Wynter Gordon
    Nobody's Supposed to be Here - Deborah Cox
    The Time (Dirty Bit) - Black Eyed Peas
    Sweet Nothing - Florence Welch/Calvin Harris

    Thanks for responding everyone! I've started downloading a bunch of new stuff thanks to you guys and gals.

    I'm going to use Audacity to fuse it all into one long song and hopefully set it to the podcasts that are designed for the C25K program.

    Wish me luck!
