Best Workout Music

I'm trying to compile a list of high energy, fun-to-workout-to tunes to motivate me while I'm working out (which is not so fun for me).

What are your favourite tunes to listen to?

And go!

    I also want to know what people are listening to so I can keep building my gym playlists. My gym playlists seem to be divided into "motion/motivational" songs and plain up tempo songs.

    In the motion/motivational category: Time to run, Shut up and dance, Work B**ch, Gonna make you sweat, Harder Better Faster Stronger etc etc.

    Up tempo songs: Chelsea Dagger, Fortunate son, Lights, Don't call me baby, Hardest button to button etc.

    What are you listening to?
  • I like a good mix... some up beat dance type songs, with some hard core Grrr songs mixed with it. lol My music choices usually either impress or disgust people. HAHA

    When I am looking for a new playlist, I like to spend some time on Youtube and find some songs that really catch my attention. Then I make those into my new workout playlist.

    Good luck :)
  • Work ***** by Britney Spears is my fave for treadmill.

    Work ***** - Britney Spears
    Sweat - Snoop Dogg with David Guetta
    Right Now - Rihanna feat. David Guetta
    All I do is win - DJ Khaled
    A Little party never killed nobody - Fergie
    The Cave - Mumford and Sons
    Lord I Need You - Matt Maher (I know this one doesn't look like it 'fits' with the rest of my playlist, but I enjoy the lyrics for personal reasons and the songs builds and builds and motivates me to no end!)

    Avicii is awesome (I dance in the car to it), but I listen to this before going anywhere:

    Because dangit, I know I look flawless, absolutely flawless. ;)

    It seems I have more remixes than anything else, looking over my list. Also depends if I need a fast beat or not.
    Benny Benassi - Satisfaction (consistent thumpy beat for repetitive exercises)
    Dan Veytia mix of Harder Better Faster Stronger (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0EzE7PnHTE), also good for thumpy beat.
    Most Underworld is good for slower things like curls or treadmill walking.

    Any and all Niyaz/Azam Ali for bellydancing, heh.

    I love working out to peaches... it feels a bit like strip club music at times, but hey, what the hell...
