    Hello Tpayne,

    Thank you for adding me. :) I look forward to losing this weight and helping you too.

    As far as music goes, I am not sure what kind of music you like listening to, but here are a few of the songs that pump me up:

    Uprising by Muse
    Sail by Awolnation
    Gasoline by Audioslave

    If you like these, I can share the rest of my list. Didn't want to put everything down just in case this is not your cuppa tea.

    Enjoy :)

    It really depends on what type of music you like.
    If I'm working out hard I like anything from Skillet or Breaking Benjamin. Kind of harder stuff, but gets me going.
  • Honestly....I listen to EVERYTHING! As long as it gets me going I will listen to it :^) I'm just over the playlist I've had for, what seems like, the last five years. LOL

    uprising = great song. Good for the start of a workout.
  • What kind of music do you like? I'd definitely look into that and see if there are any new songs you find yourself wanting to move to.
  • I listen to pretty much anything that will get me moving

    Im an 80s girls, so since my husband bought me a internet radio hook up for the tv I dance to it all. Especially 80s dance music. I can dance or do aerobics all day.

  • Everyone -

    Loving this! Adding all suggestions...trying to "spice" things up LOL
  • I have a few favorites and here they are. Nicki Minaj is my absolute favorite. I listen to these on the treadmill and they get me through what can be a boring workout. Good music makes me work harder and is essential to a good workout. I hope these help...I like hip hop music. Some of these were already downloaded on my computer by my 20 year old daughter and I actually like some of them.

    Nicki Minaj: Pound The Alarm, Starships, Right By My Side, Stupid Hoe (I know it sounds bad- I don't pay attention to the words. I just like the beat)

    Akon- I'm So Paid

    Gorilla Zoe- I'm Dumb

    Lil Flip- Turn It Up
  • A lot of Coheed and Cambria songs fit my running rhythm perfectly. Also a big fan of Atreyu (Becoming the Bull is very motivating!)

    Most recently I have been listening to ATB - Seven Year album. It has 21 tracks and I just stick on random while I pedal away on my bike trainer. I use the songs as intervals and switch the gears.

    Here's a few from my workout playlist:

    Pump Up The Jam - Technotronic
    Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae something er other - not my usual style of music, but good for working out
    I also have lots of Rihanna, Beyonce and Lady Gaga on mine.

    I's funny, I rarely listen to the stuff listed above unless I'm working out, I just like the beat. Loving this thread because I really need to add some good stuff to my list!

    I use the Pandora app on my phone. Total I have 100 stations and I usually put it on it on quick mix and let it play whatever it wants to play from all of my stations. I also have a station called Dance Cardio... Its like remixed extended versions of top 40 songs like LMFAO, Rhianna, Brittany Spears, Skrillex.... I love it.

    I can't believe this hasn't been stated yet..... LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem. This is my go-to song when I'm feeling down and unmotivated.

    Also, Fighter by Christina Aguilera I think. Just kinda pumps me up as well.

    I used to have preloaded playlists, but now I just listen to different pandora stations on my phone while running. I enjoy the disturbed and breaking benjamin stations. Tried metallica, but there's too many old school bands on there for me to get into.

    If you like "Master of Puppets" - try to find the Van Canto cover. They're an acapella group (except they use a drum set), and they make MoP sound like the next level of beast mode. "Kings of Metal" is another good workout cover version.

    I also use:

    Powerman 5000
    White Zombie/Rob Zombie
    Disturbed - 10,000 Fists in particular
  • Thanks everyone...ive pretty much created a new list...and it was much needed!! =D

    Great list of sounds! I have most of what you listed - except Rock the Casbah, Pon de Replay, & Rock you like a Hurricane (is that by Def Lepeard)? Bailamos, I love to warm up with this one. :bigsmile: :glasses:
