    This is true... I just start it over and play it again lol

    It's a hard choice - system of a down "prison song"
    Rage against the machine "freedom"
    acid bath - "dope fiend"

    I am a pretty positive and spiritual person but I get a much better workout when I get pissed and rage it up.

    "You're gonna go far kid" by the offspring. Definitely pumps me up!

    i am an old rock and roll guy who loves tunes ranging from early "Who" through Big Hair to Progressive to modern. For workouts, I mostly go old school, but lots of stuff to like in the last 10 years. Just some stuff that comes to mind...
    1. Pretty much anything by AC/DC
    2. Pretty much anything by Van Halen
    2. Welcome to the Jungle and other songs by GNR
    3. Enter the Sandman - Metallica
    4. Aerosmith
    5. NIckleback has some solid songs.
    6. Vertigo - U2
    7. Several songs from the movie soundtrack to "Heavy Metal"
    8. Handful of Def Leppard such as Pour some Sugar on Me; Rock of Ages, Lets Get Rocked
    9. The Who - Baba O'Riley, Who Are You, Eminence Front, Pinball Wizard to name a few
    10. Collective Soul had some up beat tunes - Gel, Precious Declaration, Heavy
    11. Seven Nation Army, Icky Thump, and Catch Hell Blues by the White Stripes.

    I'll stop now, my playlists are endless.

    Through the Fire and the Flames - Dragonforce (literally the times i thought i would actually die!)

    Yes!! This is my go-to for those times I'm sure I just won't make it.

    Also - a little embarrassing - I like to end my runs with the Pirates of the Caribbean theme song :D Such a good score!

    I like goofy songs to get me started, like "Juicy wiggle" by Renfoo, "baby got back" by Sir Mix-a-lot, "rump shaker" by Wreckx-n-Effect, or "Happy" by Pharrell Williams. When I am struggling and want to quit, "Let me clear my throat - old school" by DJ Kool always gets me back in the workout. I love the "you tired yet? h*** no! you ready to quit? h*** no!" part of this version!

    Might sound weird since the song has nothing to do with motivation, by I find that "Closer" by NIN has this primal energy that really helps me push through the toughest of workouts.

    Will never forget "Break on through" by the Doors playing on Slacker as I was finishing my first 5K. Other go to bands for motivation...Black Keys, The Clash, LCD Sound System, and Cake "The Distance"
