I'm in the process of putting together my own workout mix and I was wondering what songs really get people pumping and moving. What keeps you going?

    Stronger by Mandisa

    I play that song every time I think I can't make it any further and it reminds me that I can make it and in the end I'll be stronger.

    My taste is all over the place, but there are a few songs that keep me running when I want to stop --

    'Til I Collapse - Eminem
    Good Feelin' - Flo Rida
    Wheel in the Sky - Journey
    Trying to Find a Balance - Atmosphere
    Art of Noise - Cee-Lo
    Everlong - Foo Fighters
    Crabbuckit - K-OS
    Fell in Love with a Girl - The White Stripes
    Stronger - Kanye (or the original: Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger - Daft Punk)

    I could go on and on... but lately I've been addicted to Thrift Shop - Ryan Leslie?

    Let's Go by Calvin Harris. Love in the song how he says It matters where you are going not where you have been and make no excuses now.
