When working out--is there a favorite song that comes on in your playlist that just gets you MOVING? Spaceman by The Killers is one that comes to mind....how about you?

    Rage Against the Machine, Disturbed, or any other kind of angry sounding rock. Can't beat the fat if you aren't angry at it right?

    Foo fighters, black eyed peas, Gwen stefani (no doubt), paramore.. The girl bands also have an incentive because I think about Gwen Stefani's abs and work out harder... She's got like an 8-pack.. WOW!:noway:
