    Black Sabbath, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Godsmack, and others from that genre. They help get me through some tough workouts....

    I have a folk/metal station on my Pandora that I listen to. Alestorm, Ensiferum, Blind Guardian, Korpiklaani, Turisas, Hammerfall, Wintersun, are regulars; also Dropkick Murphys, Gaelic Storm, Flogging Molly, and the Dubliners. When I'm in the middle of a workout and starting to get fatigued, 9 times out of 10 it's like Pandora knows, and it'll play Alestorm's cover of You Are A Pirate (yeah, the song from that kid's show with the pink-haired girl). That one just always makes me smile and helps me push through the fatigue and finish the workout.

    Industrial, EBM. Something pounding, vicious, and preferably electronic.

    For walking I enjoy Abney Park though, and traditional music for Egyptian belly dancing.

    Love Abney Park!!

    As for me, Maroon 5, Queen, and Rock and Roll!!

    I love this thread! I always wonder what the other people in the gym are listening to...

    Disturbed - anything by disturbed
    Godsmack
    AC/DC

    Pretty much any music that is loud, fast and has a nice heavy beat!

    Amen to this! Also add Stone Sour, Slipknot, Shinedown,...

    dubstep for training
    chillstep/melodic dubstep (preferably with vocals) for downtime and relaxation

    I agree with this. It's absolutely awesome
