edited September 25 in Fitness and Exercise
i was training this morning and at the point when i thought my arms and shoulders had suffered enough, 'Mr Brightside' came on my Iphone and just gave me an incredible lift, enough to do an extra set on the free weights,

So my question is 'does everyone have a song that is there gym song' and if so, what is it,

Mr Brightside by the killers was my pick me up this morning.........

    Example - Kickstarts

    just because it's such an upbeat tune and reminds me of how slim I was last summer :)

    We had a really tough circuits session on Sunday, and just as everyone was really flagging Flashdance came on, which picked us all up! How embarrassing is that? Dance versions of naff hits from the 80s do it for me every time!

    Definitely Rihanna's new cd!! It's so funny because this morning i put it on the loud speakers at my job's gym. Had everybody listening to it. Even the dudes. They tried to act like they werent jamming to it. So when I got to work one of the gym rats that was in there this morning was walking down the hall singing.. "What You To Make Me Feel Like I'm The Only Girl In The World!!" I died laughing!! I said to him "you like my musical selection this morning huh?"

    Another one is Dirty Money, "Last Train to Paris".

    You will get your sweat on with these two cds!
