    When I'm running, my power song is "Boys with Girlfriends" by Meiko.

    I have no idea why. :huh:

    I have everything from Metallica to Joe Nichols to Pitbull. I just added Ain't It fun by Paramore and I love running to it.

    PS - I am that girl that is dancing while she runs........... my neighbors think I am crazy

    I listen to all kinds of music, but what I find that keeps me motivated the most is hip hop. Not the general, fun club type stuff but the angry push yourself music. A typical workout playlist contains a lot of DMX and Eminem, artists like that. I believe, Till I Collapse by Eminem has to be the one that really kicks me into high gear during a workout. I did however, recently add Turn Down for What to the list.

    Pandora's "Hip Hop Workout" list has some great stuff on it as well. I'll flip it on if I get tired of the ipod rotation.

    Bulls on Parade is one of my fav workout songs, as is anything by RATM.

    I also like Control by Puddle of Mudd, anything by Queen, Disturbed, Godsmack. For a change I mix it up with SexyBack by JT, Low by FloRida, Decode by Paramore.

    I recently found out that "Danger Zone" from Top Gun by Kenny Loggins is a great song for me to play when I run. I logged my fastest mile ever while listening to that song.

    Don't have a specific song really but I tend to listen to metal or punk when I pick things up and put them down.

    If you dislike rap- stop reading... But I do have a better suggestion than free pandora app- it's Songza and they play 1 commercial up front and that's all you hear for hours- until you switch stations. You can also skip 5 songs on each station. I love it! Anyway-my stations on there are 'happy pop' / 'today's clu bangers' / 'vodka escapades' / and others like 'country crossovers' 'cardio hip hop'.

    Current fav song for running=
    0-100 drake
    Still d.r.e - dr dre
    Any beyonce

    I like acoustic guitar for lifting

    Push-ups/pull up work out- need something 180bpm to get a rythym. (Btw there's a '180bmp' station on Songza too!)

    I prefer Spotify. I have a cardio mix and a lifting mix. I'm always looking for songs to add. I added a bunch of viking metal songs to my lifting mix.

    One of my favorites at the moment is I'm Only Joking by Kongos.

    I just added "Bang Bang - Jessie J. et all" and "Animals - Maroon 5" to my playlist (actually, it's called the KickAss Mix, haha!).

    I don't really have a favorite workout song. I'm in the mood for something different everyday, but it's hard to go wrong with some upbeat hip-hop or some electronic/house/dance music. There are even times when I'll throw on a podcast while I'm working out because I'm just weird like that.

    @dirtyflirty30‌ Jessie J's "Bang Bang" is such a catchy song... that entire album gets stuck in my head for days on end
