Hey guys!

I'm looking for some new music inspiration for the gym! I usually use Pandora... Does anyone have any good station or artists I can listen to?

Thank you!!

    i heart radio, i have multiple stations favorited for when there is too much talk or a song I really hate, its easy to switch...worst case scenario? Youtube workout mix or some Kelly Clarkson mix. Or if I am feeling funky, some random Kpop mix, dont know what they are saying, but has a nice beat

    Old school heavy metal or gangster rap. Metallica / Panthera or Wu Tang Clan are usually my most listened to.

    I love Metallica for workouts as the beats just keep you going even more that you would normally!! When I run, my favorite race song is Jump In the Fire! I like all the old school metal and some new, the point is for me the harder songs get it moving for me and motivate me!

    I listen to books. Right now I'm "re-reading" all the Harry Potters.

    I use the Google Play app on my phone and it's usually set to '00's aggro anthems. Eminem, Slipknot, Godsmack, Korn, etc. I need the faster paced music to keep me going!!

    Rosetta Stone audio of Mandarin Chinese. It's a great way to get extra practice in on your lessons!

    I like anything with 135 bpm or above for doing my cardio - thats mostly dance songs but some metal has 135bpm as well - eg bodies by drowning pool - love it! Or Dragula by Rob zombie.

    I don't listen to music when I lift weights - Its sad but I need to consentrate then as I am so new to lifting and music distracts me!

    I tend to listen to more aggressive stuff. Mostly underground hip hop Like immortal technique, LowKey, and rage against the machine etc for a little rock/hiphop. Something kinda helpful when pushing heavy weight having the more aggressive music.

    I have a playlist of superhero movie soundtracks for lifting. Cheesy - probably. Effective - definitely!

    Who won't attempt an extra rep with John Williams' Superman theme playing?

    Pandora...I have an LL Cool J station which plays older & newer hip-hop. Good tempo usually. Momma said knock you out is a great song to lift to.

    Is Pandora better than Iheartradio? My issues is that the fast-paced songs eventually transition to R&B or ballads. Great for makin' babies, not so much for makin' gainz.
