Hey guys! This is my first post on here and looking to add some new music to my workout playlist so... What's your favorite go-to songs to power through a tough workout?

Some of my favorites are:
My body - young the giant
#thatPower - will.i.am
Don't stop the music - Rihanna
I listen to a lot of lady gaga, paramore, switchfoot, and more as well.

What are your favorites? :)

    I don't listen to music when I'm freely moving about, but for machine exercise, I've really been enjoying the Making Monsters, No Redemption, and We Love You albums by Combichrist. It's certainly not the most polite music though...

    Pendulum is probably my favorite to listen to when lifting.

    It all depends on the mood I’m in; I usually stick with The Ramones, The Beastie Boys, The Violent Femmes, Meat Loaf, Run DMC , Old school hip hop (80’s and 90’s). But on occasions The Rat pack, Elvis, Country, R&B, 70’s rock.

    Kanye West, AC/DC, Busta Rhymes, N.E.R.D., Metallica, and as much Red Hot Chili Peppers when lifting. Essentially ego driven music genres and musicians.

    - #1 song for weight lifting- Power - Kanye West

    Snarky Puppy, Sergio Mendes, Marcus Miller, Eric Marienthal, Chick Corea when Im doing cardio or plyometric training for extended amounts of time. Jazz and other forms of lyric-less music keeps me in a good mindset such that I can loose myself in the song instead of focusing on the number of minutes until I finish my hour run/elliptical/mountain climbers/boxjumps/etc.

    -#1 song for extended cardio or extended plyo- What About Me? - Snarky Puppy

    Depends on my mood, but for cardio my absolute fave right now is Chandelier by Sia. LOVE. IT.
    Weight training days usually consists of metal-- Slipknot and Disturbed, mainly at the moment.

    For my daily 5K run ..Gotta start with Eye Of The Tiger when I'm stretching, LOL. Rest is a mix of some Gaga/Katy Perry/ACDC/Mudvayne/Avenged Seven Fold and of course some 5 Finger death punch anything to keep my BPM 130-150 range. I'm always looking for new music 8)
