What's everyone's "go-to" song that no matter what mood they are in, when this song plays they are ready for the gym?

Mine is - Eminem - "Till I Collapse"

    Don't have an actual song, but an artist. For some reason since I was little, I pop in a michael jackson cd and it gets me motivated to either clean or workout. Lol. But when my daughters home we workout to lady gaga :) haha

    Queen "Don't Stop Me Now" or ACDC "You Shook Me All Night Long". Both just get me totally pumped up :)

    Call me crazy but i like the British prog rock of the 70's. Stuff like Yes, ELP, Van der Graaf Genrator, Genesis, Mike Oldfield. Not necessarily a particular song but the adventerous music takes my mind off mundane things like "how far do i want to walk", etc.

    I don't have a particular artist, but Panic At the Disco's original album has a few songs that have great running tempos. (Not a fan of the band, but their tempo gives me a good running pace.) Another artist I listen to while working out is Disturbed (don't judge).

    Hmm, I have one in particular that speaks to me. "I'm Every Woman" by Whitney Houston is good for me.
    Other fast ones I like are: "Hey Ya" by OutKast and "I Gotta Feeling" by the Black Eyed Peas

    There are others that aren't particularly "pumping" fast, but they are great to walk to and fill my heart with inspiration:

    "Man in the Mirror" by Michael Jackson
    "On My Way" by Phil Collins
    "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus

    Now I am no Miley fan, not even close, but I do love that song. It it really inspirational. :bigsmile:

    Great question!!
