I'm always looking for great work out music. OLD or NEW doesn't matter. It just has to pump me up and make me want to MOVE. Name 2 or 3 of your current work out favs.

My current likes:

- My Delirium - Ladyhawke
- Sabotage - Beastie Boys
- The Logical Song - Scooter

    Death Grips, Sleigh Bells, and trashy pop music. It works.

    I tend to run very loud (read: metal) music to block out the gym's system as they seem to take delight in bombarding us with Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber. Grrrrr! The current favourites are:

    Sabaton: Metal Crue (from Attero Dominatus)
    Nightwish: Over The Hills & Far Away (cover, live version from End of an Era)
    Within Temptation: Iron (from Unforgiving)
    Eluvietie: Luxtos (from Helvetios)

    Mostly industrial or metal, but also the Fratellis get me going for a workout sometimes. I think because I associate them with songs that we used to play to get pumped up before hockey games :)

    I listen to energetic pop music when I work out, so I really like
    Do It Like a Dude by Jessie J
    Pretty Girl Rock by Keri Wilson
    Could it Be You by H*Wood
    Wings by Little Mix
    Electropop by Jupiter Rising

    also things like Carry On by Fun, The King is Dead but the Queen is Alive by P!nk, and Shake it Out and Dog Days are Over by Florence + The Machine but mostly on days I need motivation.

    Mamma Said Knock You Out (LL Cool J)
    The Pretender (Foo Fighters)

    Dub step and pop. I have to listen to music with a good beat and fast faced. It helps me work out longer.
