The music on my iPod is getting a bit dated and I'm looking to get some fresh tracks on it.

So if you could pick JUST TWO SONGS to listen to for every workout for the next 6 months, what would they be?

  • Boom Boom Pow by Black Eyed Peas and ohhh...probably another one by them too :)

    Hello - Martin Solvieg ft. Dragonette
    Dog Days Are Over - Florence + the Machine
  • Firework- Katy Perry
    Love Stoned- Justin Timberlake
  • For me its more about the bands than songs. I tend to listen to whole albums when i work out, since im a metal/rock head its usualy something very upbeat.
    So lately i've been listening to alot of Stone Sour or Slipknot. :)

    @transparentjelly: "Magic" by B.O.B. is an awesome song and defenitely a song I have worked out to before.
