What's your favorite song on your playlist that gets you pumped up and motivated to workout? I need some new music so I'm open to hear what you all have.

Right now I have to say 'Young the Giant - My Body' is still on my top favorites.

    Last night I put all three of Muse's cd's on shuffle and KILLED my workout.
  • Anything that has a fast tempo is usually good. yesterday the one song that kept getting replayed was Hey Monday - i dont wanna dance. Worked well with my HIIT cardio.

    Wanna get pumped up? Listen to "Livin La vida Loca" by Ricky Martin, or "Objection (Tango)" by Shakira!

    This morning, I was rocking out to some Beatles songs! I like to put on more upbeat 60s songs....like The Twist! Or Twist and Shout. Muse is great as well! Also, gotta love me some lady pop like Pink, Christina, Britney! I love working out to Turbo Jam because the whole routine is music based!

    I usually listen to Triple J an Aussie radio station that i like (just because it's easy to put the radio on) but my all time favorite song to work out to is Better, stronger, faster by Daft Punk. I also love Macklemore's Thrift shop song.
