    My all-time favorite is "Now That We Found Love" by Heavy D and The Boyz. I also love "Raise Your Glass" by Pink and "Club Can't Handle Me" by Flo Rida.

    Colt Ford, most of his songs are awesome & got a good beat.

    Luke Bryan ;)

    The Lacs, they've got some good songs.

    & Toby Keith-Made in America.



    Yes, I love my country music...& the songs I have by them, are most played when working out. :)

    I went for "classic" today- William Tell Overture, Khatchaturian's Saber Dance, and a couple of Led Zeppelin favorites (When the Levee Breaks, Gallows Pole).

    I usually listen to upbeat party/pop songs. So typically songs by Katy Perry, Ke$ha, P!nk, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Britney Spears, etc. I also love music from Glee too.

    My favorite at the moment though is Let It Go by Idina Menzel from Frozen :)

    Judas Priest - Turbo Lover

    Or if you like diversity, any good Pandora station.

    Check out Cher's new CD "Closer to the Truth." LOADED with great workout songs. 'I Dont Have to Sleep to Dream" is a particular fave.

    Canned Heat by Jamiroquai is my ultimate running song. Every time I hear it, I can't help picking up some speed and all the exhaustion fades. Why? Cause I've got canned heat in my heels!

    I've been loving a bunch of dance, club and 80s/90s remixes lately, but my tastes are always shifting. Lately, these have been in heavy rotation:

    Safety Dance (Club Mix) - Maik Klobas aka D-M-O
    Wanna Get Hype - District 78
    I Ran (So Far Away) [Workout Remix] - Power Music Workout
    So Excited (featuring Khia) [Bimbo Jones Club Mix] - Janet Jackson featuring Khia
    What's Up [Eurobeat Trance Remix] - DJ Miko
    Sandstorm (Komytea Radio Remix) - Darude
    Medicine (Extended) - Kim Leoni
    Total Eclipse of the Heart (7 Inch Saint Mix) - Nicki French


    Just a few of my faves right now.

    :happy:

    I was just about to mix up my workout playlist! I like different songs for different workouts (if the beat matches what I do, I feel like it's a bit more fun and goes quicker! OCD at it's finest, right?)

    They literally change every 2 seconds, but so far I'm liking...

    Cardio (something with a peppy beat):
    Upgrade U - Beyonce
    Danza Kuduro - Don Omar
    Dancing with Myself - Billy Idol
    SMS Bangerz - Miley Cyrus
    Footloose - Blake Shelton

    Strength Training (something with a slower beat):
    Bounce - Timberland
    Sail - Awolnation

    Not really got a fav., but I downloaded the Pandora app on my phone & search for club music/dance music/e.g.; I do aerobic dancing to however the music moves me. It works for me….because I tend to get bored with routine. This is week 7 for me…..I actually started working out before counting calories….combined….it seems to be doing the trick in getting the weight off. =)

    Well, I have over 5000 songs and usually just press shuffle. But my favorite for the last week or so has been Three Days Grace Animal :-)
