    LOVE working out to all kinds of METAL! Thrash, Glam, Metalcore, Southern, Classic, etc. Today I worked out to Trivium. I have a decent library from over the years, but mostly use Pandora. Listening to an AC/DC station at work now, but have been rotating b/t Down, Iron Maiden, BLS, LOG, Pantera, and KSE.

    Finally! An introduce yourself thread where I can feel right at home :D. I've been a metalhead since about the age of 14 (my dad told me it was a ridiculous phase that I'd grow out of by the time I was 16...I moved away from home and lost contact shortly after lol) Well guess what dad....I'm 42 this year and currently saving up for the Kilkim Zaibu festival in Lithuania in 2015 :D. My ipod is an eclectic mix of everything but metal makes up about 80% of it. A few favourites are Testament, Slayer, Motorhead, Candlemass, Deftones & Breed 77...............I reckon we should all get together and invest in a pure metal gym where all the walls are painted black and NO crappy dance or rap music is allowed EVER...(nothing drives me nuts more when I'm working lol) Anyone and everyone on this thread is more than welcome to add me by the way ! xx

    Somewhere Dio is rolling in his grave. What was once a style of music that was well suited to being a lonely, isolated guy who was made to feel that way mostly by girls has become...*gasp* workout music.

    30 year veteran of the psychic wars here.

    Metal helps me deal with the psychopaths, the narcissists, those shallow and empty souls who absorb pop culture and make me want to ****ing vomit, those who lack virtually any form of real human empathy, and direct all their hate at me. **** 'em, if I can't shoot 'em or myself, might as well rock out.

    Up the irons from Arkansas!

    I am not a "metalhead" in the sense that it comprises most of what I listen to but I try not to limit myself out of ANY genre. So yes, there is some metal/hard rock among what I work out to. (I don't want to get into a discussion of where hard rock ends and metal begins).

    Bands I listen to from time to time include Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Whitecross, Stryper, Motorhead, Metallica (both pre and post BLACK ALBUM), Deliverance, Van Halen, Montrose, Rage Against the Machine, Sabbath/Ozzy and probably some others that I'm blanking on at the moment.

    I tend to be more of a "song" guy than an album listener so I have random one off songs from all types of bands in my digital library :happy:

    When I was 16 my father in law told hubby and I that we wouldn't be listening to the same kind of music when we were closer to 47 then 17. He was right. We are 45 and listen to much more hardcore than the hair bands we loved in the 80s lol

    I love teh idea of a metal gym. RAR!!!! \m/

    When I have music on when I workout it's always metal. It especially helps me get through boring cardio sessions. :D

    I love Metal, not just for working out but it is great for that too. some favourites on high rotation currently are:
    Machine Head
    Volbeat
    Pantera
    Rammstein

    I also have a lot of pop-punk, indie and classic rock which has it's place, mostly for nostalgic reasons and makes me feel 17 again so will always love too but I am definitely placing metal as my absolute favourite. always will.

    I have seen some great suggestions from other posters on this thread for stuff I do not currently own and that will be fixed shortly.
