    Bunch of young pups here by their music choice. I like Black Dog, Ramble On, and Fool in the Rain by Led Zepplen
    Just about anything by Queen, Iv'e Got the Power can't remember by who. And if I'm feeling country anything by Asleep at the Wheel will get me going. Miami Sound machine is also good for cardio workouts, but if it's weight training I'm doing I like hard rock and turn to Led Zepplen or maybe AC/AD, or Kid Rock.

    I listen to a lot of Techno with really fast beats since I like to walk at a very brisk pace and I usually will match the beat of the music:

    Aphex Twin - Buttered Popcorn
    Aphex Twin - Imperial March
    Infected Mushroom - any of their songs

    Wait a minute - I'm only 26 and I had Paul Simon, Queen, and Van Morrison on my list. :tongue:
    That being said, I'm not your typical "young pup." :happy:

    Pinks Greatest Hits So Far album has a lot of upbeat tunes : Raise Your Glass, Get the Party Started, etc, great for working out to. I also like anything off the Aerosmith Big Ones album and some Nirvana. 80's rock is always good too!

    My power songs that I ALWAYS play when I need that extra cardio bump are:

    Fire - Joe Budden & Busta Ryhmes
    Feedback - Janet Jackson
    Gotta Work - Amerie
    Pucker Up - Ciara
    Universal Mind Control - Common & Pharrell
    Can't Touch It - Sex & the City Soundtrack
    Motivation - T.I.
    #1 - Nelly
    Massive Attack - Nicki Minaj

    For lifting, I listen to old school gangsta stuff like Tupac, Mobb Deep, Dr. Dre, G-Unit (just the old, 1st cd), Ludacris, etc.

    ...Just your typical white girl stuff. lmao.

    Lately I really LOVE working out to "Gold Guns Girls" by Metric
    The last few minutes of the song she sings "More and more, more and more, more and more and more and more"
    and it literally makes me go more and more, lol. You should check it out!
    Also "Pogo" by Digitalism (Shininchi Osawa Remix), "1901" by Pheonix and "10:1" by Rogue Wave.
    All these make me wanna go faster and harder ^_^

    i never heard of these before, i love them, would be great to run too! thanks for sharing.

    No problem :D I'm glad you like them!

    When I workout I have to have some Hard rock to listen to. I need it to get me going. I hate working out and hearing some slow song when I'm running or doing weights.
