    I usually listen to metal, but lately I've been on a Die Antwoord kick.

    Nothing keeps me going like awesome music; Five Finger Death Punch, Volbeat, Queensryche, AC/DC, Rush, the new Billy Talent, Atreyu, All That Remains, etc...

    There is everything from Motorhead to LL Cool J on my workout playlist...and I listen to it loud to drown out the grunters/screamers at the gym

    I have a kind of eccentric mix on my iPhone! Depends on what I'm working, how hard I'm going & how hard I WANT to go (think from Dope to Depeche Mode, Hinder to Helloween, Lacuna Coil to Limp Bizkit, Muse to Megadeth, System of a Down to Sepultura, Tesla to Testament, even some classics from the late '60's & early 70's).

    For the most part, Thrash and Speed are my muscle-building motivations which is what I'm most addicted to (music & muscle - lol!). I usually have it up so loud that EVERYTHING around me is blocked out & I have to take both buds out my ears to hear what someone is saying to me (I think most leave me alone as they think I'm a b*tch since I go to workout & not socialize, but I'm not paying them to talk, I'm paying the gym to workout!). Music is my life force - couldn't imagine a day without it as it's always been with me.

    I listen to club/electronic or anything with a nice fast beat that is noticeable.

    DJ Assault, and lesser known Detroit Booty music, 80s metal, stuff with a fast beat. I only listen during cardio. When I lift weights, I just concentrate.

    I have ditched workouts before based purely on the fact that I've left my headphones at home! lol

    I listen to hip hop, pop, rock, whatever 8tracks churns out for me! :)

    What ever is playing at the gym; but most of the time I don't really "listen" to it. My thoughts and concentration are in my workout and the effort of lifting those darn weights.:devil:

    Yes. I have similar thrash along with some classic rock, rap, Phish, real thrash metal, etc on my phone. I just start it on a shuffle and keep pausing\playing whenever I want to listen to it until some time comes along where I want to listen to specific songs.

    Nice to know there are other Thrashers out there still! I was beginning to think I might be the last of a lost breed :wink:
