Everyone has at least 1 song like this, that song that gives you a rush of energy the moment you hear it, as if you just become invincible.

Post the song/genre below!

One of my personal favourites (especially @0:50 in song). I play this when I'm reaching the end of a run and need that final intense sprint to end it off. Feel like I can do anything with this playing.
Genre: melodic death metal
Song: Whispered - Thousand Swords

Another one that gives me a huge rush of energy near the end of a run, or on days when I'm feeling extra tired --
Genre: Power Metal
Song: Sabaton - The Price of a Mile

    Listening to their "Evil Empire" album. This is actually pretty catchy.

    Toby Mac "Showstopper". Mandisa's "Good Morning". Steven Curtis Chapman "Love Take Me Over". Positive vibes with good dance beats.

    I don't have a specific song, but hip hop and pop music are what I listen to when I work out.

    My preferences vary depending on my mood or the workout, but for that jolt during a run, I love The Bleeding (Five Finger Death Punch) or The Great Destroyer (NIN). I'm a little weird. I like hard rock/metal for runs, but that's music I listen to anyway. For lifting/strength training I like raunchy hip hop, which I don't really listen to at other times.

    Yeah I noticed this for myself as well; except with rap. I listen to pretty much just metal but during a workout I may put on DMX or Crossroad by Bone Thugs n harmony (which isn't even an intense song).

    I love DMX for lifting. Also a lot of the newer stuff that is (to me) straight up garbage (Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Lil Wayne).

    I mostly listen to hip hop, but when I need a push during a run I always play Down with the Sickness or Radioactive. These songs always give me a boost

    For cardiovascular it's cheerleadering or Zumba music. For weights I have been feeling nostalgic for the 80s lately.

    I like all music, anything with a good beat. But there are a few songs that actually make me want to work out if I hear them.. For some reason, Cee Lo Greens "Bright Lights Bigger City" makes me want to workout. And a lot of dance songs from the 90's. I hate most music these days.
