What do you listen to when you workout?

I REALLY like the lyrics to Sick Puppies "You're Going Down" it's by-far my FAVORITE song to workout to. :0)

Lyrics:

Define your meaning of war
To me it's what we do when we're bored
I feel the heat coming off of the blacktop
And it makes me want it more
Because I'm hyped up, outta control
If it's a fight I'm ready to go
I wouldn't put my money on the other guy
If you know what I know that I know

It's been a long time coming
And the tables' turned around
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
I'm not running, it's a little different now
Cause one of us is goin'

One of us is goin' down

Define your meaning of fun
To me it's when we're getting done
I feel the heat coming off of the blacktop
So get ready for another one
Let's take a trip down memory lane
The words circulate in my brain
You can treat this like another all the same
But don't cry like a ***** when you feel the pain

It's been a long time coming
And the tables' turned around
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
I'm not running, it's a little different now
Cause one of us is going

One of us is goin' down

This is hardly worth fighting for
But it's the little petty **** that I can't ignore
With my fist in your face and your face on the floor
It'll be a long time coming
But you got the message now
Cause I was never going
Yeah, you're the one that's going down

One of us is goin' down
I'm not running,
it's a little different now
Cause one of us is goin'

One of us is goin' down
One of us is goin' down

Depends on the workout. For lifting weights at home, nothing beats a movie with JCVD or Stallone: you'll feel like you're in your own montage.

But seriously, for jogging here are some songs in my playlist:

Feel Good, Inc - Gorrilaz
Little Less Conversation - Elvis
Here [In Your Arms] - Hellogoodbye
PJ & Rooster - OutKast (from Idlewild)
Hey Man (Now You're Really Living) - the eels
Going On - Gnarls Barkley
Me & Julie Down by the Schoolyard - Paul Simon

I'm also a bit of a theatre geek, so I have lots of showtunes in there. If you're into that sort of thing:

all from HairSpray:
Ladies' Choice
Run and Tell That
You Can't Stop the Beat


All fun and upbeat and keep me going. When I was jogging on a treadmill and doing the same program every time, I would time out the levels and make a playlist to keep pace with whatever level I would be at. That took some planning, though.

I normally listen to house/Dubstep when I'm working out so if you're looking to listen to that I have:

Datsik (live set from 2012 ultra music festival in Miami)
Pretty Lights (live set from 2012 ultra music festival in Miami)
Moar Ghosts N' Stuff (Vocal mix or extended mix) by Deadmau5
ABC by David Guetta
Break'n A Sweat by Skrillex
Kill Everybody by Skrillex
Set Me On Fire by Pendulum
Levels by Avicii
Promises by Nero
Save the World - Sweedish House Mafia
Somebody That I Used to Know (hypercrush remix) - Goyte

Good album that plays continuously
Dance Harder *****


Non-house/dubstep music

Fighter - Christina Aguilera
Face Down - Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Ring-A-Ling - Blackeyed Peas
Strength of the World - Avenged Sevenfold
Atrophy - Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Beat Goes On - Maddona (ft. Kanye West)
Stronger - Kanye West
You Made Me Change My Number - AMX (ft Snoop)
I Wanna Go - Britney Spears
Stare at the Sun - Thrice
The Pretender - Foo Fighters

and I did have some AC/DC..but it looks like I lost it

me... i love some crazy 80s music! like anything from footloose finding something with a beat is always my concern if u have an option for apps, try iheartradio or songza songza is great, has all kinds of already made play lists off all types once u find something that works for u let us know

AC/DC always gets me pumping

I'm probably the only person that listens to Classical while working out..

Aside from that, I have alot of Drake, Meek Mill, Kanye, Michael Buble (random,I know), Kid Cudi, Frank Ocean, Big Sean, Lil Wayne, Maroon 5, John Mayer, etc. Gospel also keeps me uplifted,especially when I'm ready to give up. Just some ideas for you

bump

I am old and cranky so its a mixture, but I love them all!

I actually can't listen to music while working out (or working, for that matter) for 2 big reasons. First, I will pay more attention to the music than to what I'm doing. Second, I *will* start singing. Trust me, nobody wants to hear that.

I damned dear killed myself trying to keep up with Brian Setzer Orchestra's version of Sabre Dance on an elliptical once...
