    Pink actually seems to motivate me the most. Something about angry girl music makes me want to work harder.

    current pandora channels:
    pantera, 30 sec to mars, metallica, blood for my valentine

    when you make a channel it plays the song or band you started with, and other music that they think it similar
    when you rate it a thumbs down or that you're tired of this track, it doesn't play that song on the channel again.
    or you can add more songs/bands to the same station for more variety.

    edit to add amy lee, but it depends on my mood, the other stuff i'll listen to any mood/workout.

    I agree with this!

    This is kind of silly but I listen to a Pandora station I created for Lady Gaga radio which is mostly like Lady Gaga, Pink, Britney Spears. I like the tempo for working out but I never listen to it any other times.

    I have another station that is more old school on Pandora I listen to that is Push It radio which strangely enough has morphed into 80's/90's hip hop plus some Stevie Wonder as well as Eminem and Run DMC. It's a really strange mix but as long as it keeps the pace I want I am down with it!

    When I make my workout stations I just give thumbs down to anything that is too slow.

    I'm really into My Chemical Romance, heavier linkin park songs and stuff like billy talents latest album. Sometimes if its a long run ill listen to chilled out stuff like of monsters and men so I'm relaxed as in running

    I agree with Five Finger Death Punch - especially most of the American Capitalist album.
    Korn's Y'All want a Single always gets me going too.

    My gym's name is Pink, and almost every other song they play is by Pink, lol.

    Disturbed is probably my favorite to run to. "Droppin Plates" and "Hell" really motivate me.

    edit: One that not a lot of people know but the rockers in here might like is Spineshank.. hey have some gems.
