So what kind of music do you like to listen to when your doing your exercise ?

I have always been into rock/metal/punk ( the whole alternative thing ) but I do enjoy anny type of music as long as its a great song.
How ever when I'm working out I love to listen to hiphop/rap ( Eminem/2pac/lil'wayne/Jay-Z ) dont know why rly but it just works for me specialy on the threadmill.

PS: I know this post probly already is out there somewhere but whut eva :P

    I listen to mostly alternative, metal, and industrial since it's fast paced. But I do have some exceptions :)

    I'm all about the hip hop/rap on the treadmill! I kind of like that stuff off the treadmill too though. After doing Zumba for a few months, I'm finding myself jamming out a lot to the Latin tunes from class, and adding those to my playlist. It's proving very tricky to do the merengue on a treadmill...

    I'm so diverse in my tastes. One day it'll be Metal the next Rap and the next perhaps smooth jazz. The other day I did my weight training to Manson and tredmill to Rob Zombie...

    I listen to all sorts! I have a gym playlist that includes artists varying in genre, from dubstep to electronica, from Britney to Avenged Sevenfold. On machines where I don't need a *rhythm* (such as the stationary bike / rpm) I listen to a language learning cd.

    I know it probably sounds a little awkward but when I'm working out I'm normally listening to:

    Yolanda Adams "I got the victory" or Rick Ross "hustlin"

    What a combination, but for me it does the trick

    My choice has been Metallica for years. Their music really keeps me going.
    Last year though I tried something different. I read about motiontraxx.com on some magazine and gave it a try. It's music podcast where you can download all the up-tempo mixes for free. It's not my favorite kind of music, but it's awesome for running.
