I am a huge Pandora fan and have quite a few channels. I was listening to the pop and hip hop workout, but have now found I love listening to Kevin Hart while I run. I know the people in the gym look at me funny when I start laughing during a run lol.

    I stream spotify so my music changes all the time ranging from 70's rock to gothic metal and the occasional podcast.

    Whatever is being played in mma that day, which has included 90s game themes. On my own I'm more nonpoint, papa roach, or godsmack.

    Gotta be rock/metal. Or Lindsey Stirling. I definitely don't have enough data on my phone plan to stream music during my workouts so I just put my entire music library on shuffle.

    Thankfully my gym is wifi so it covers my streaming and when I work out at home it is also wifi.

    I have higher cardio burns when I listen to techno like daft punk and deadmau5. I created a channel on Pandora based on DaftPunks Get Lucky.

    I love watching trashy reality tv or lifetime movies when I work out at home or at the gym. It's distracting and makes the time go by faster.

    I listen to a lot of EDM and 80's movie soundtracks. The Footloose soundtrack is my favorite for a quick 5K.

    Spotify used to have some great playlists for workout but lately I haven't been liking their "workout" playlists. I like to watch movies/tv shows/documentaries/etc.

    Rammstein, I find that it pushes me past the pain while lifting.

    I listen to similar music, love Lindsey Stirling. But I'm fortunate to still have a grandfathered unlimited data plan so I can continue to stream to my hearts content!

    I listen to a lot of stuff, mostly around 132 bpm as it's perfect for my pace (I'm a pretty slow runner lol). Currently, my favourites to run to on my playlist are "The Devil Went Down to Georgia", "Ballroom Blitz", and "Cotton Eye Joe"

    Nothing. When I am running or biking, I want to hear the sounds of nature or that car or dog that is coming up behind me. I work from home by myself, so when I go to the gym, I talk to other people between sets.

    If I go at the gym and do the stationary bike, I will just watch the Paris course I like to do. Sometimes they have music at the pool.

    At home I will listen to spotify. Any kind of songs will do.
