    I like 80s rock for walk/run intervals. I love Flogging Molly and Great Big Sea. Leonard Cohen is nice and mellow for lunch time walks, when I have to go back to work and can't be a soggy mess!

    Totally cliche, BUT, Eye of the Tiger is the BEST music for me when I need to motivate my *kitten* and get out the door.

    Although, I have to add, Biz Markie’s “Just a Friend” gets me going every time! OH BABY YOU… YOU GOT WHAT I NEEEEED…. How many of y’all sang that as you read it? And How many of you now have it stuck in your head? ;-)

    OH BABY YOU… YOU GOT WHAT I NEEEEED….

    LMFAO's popular stuff
    Hip-hop (like anything by Jurassic5... maybe Deltron 3030)
    QOTSA (self-titled album and maybe songs for the deaf)
    Any dance music, rap or hip-hop that you actually like is usually pretty good. I just look for the steady, not-too-slow-not-too-fast beat in a format that I enjoy.

    Pandora Dance Cardio! It is the best to listen to when walking cause I usually speed up to the beat!

    Does anyone listen to motivational speeches/clips in their music mixes? I've really been thinking about adding some to mine. Like Rocky's convo with his son...

    "Lift Me Up" from Five Finger Death Punch always sets me in the right mood for intense Leg days. :)

    I also like:

    "Breathe" from Prodigy
    "Adagio For Strings, remixed" from Tiësto
    "Erratic Palpitations of the Human Spirit" and "Architeuthis" from Tourniquet
    "Superheroes", "Alive" and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" from Daft Punk
    "Thor (The Thundergod)" from Zonata, and
    "Eye of the Tiger" from Survivor

    But I don't listen to music while doing cardio outside because I found out that I tend to slow down to the beat of the tune I'm listening. It's okay if I'm listening to Speed Metal or Heavy Rock music, but it gets bothersome when Rap and Ambient music kick in. :D

    I listen to anything upbeat helps keep me moving. Funny that they suggest not watching TV cause the gym I go to has a whole row of TVs in front of the treadmills, ellipticals and bikes lol. I find that it is actually hard to watch TV and workout cause it does distract me from keeping form, except the bike that I can do while watching the TV which i don't use that often.

    Well, I start at Planet Fitness next Wendesday (when they open) and I have been reading alot about everything and "they" say its best to not read a book or watch television or anyhting else that takes your mind off focusing on your workout. They do suggest getting some beats that make you move. I am not a huge music person BUT I have been listening to some bangin country that makes me dance in my car so I figured hey why not get an iPod shuffle and put some tunes on it and try it when I work out. Can't hurt right?

    On that very long note...I was wondering what song really gets you going when you work out? You know, the ones that even if you aren't paying attention the beat hits you and makes you move! I am open to ALL sorts of music as I have already loaded songs from Luke Bryan, Gwen Stefani, Miley Cyrus, Lorde and Mandisa!

    Thanks for everyones AMAZING help in advance and I can't wait to check out what you all suggest :-)

    Add some of the Georgia men!! Jason Aldean, Brantley Gilbert, Zac Brown Band, Kip Moore (if you want country), and you can always look up some workout mixes that are already made and get them. They usually have a pretty good beat and mix of songs :)

    Personally I like metal because it gives me the aggression to kick through my workouts. :glasses:
