i'm 21 and a die hard country fan.. but it seems not many country songs really get me into the "i wanna kick butt in the gym" mood.. mostly rap and rock get me.. i try searching online at workout playlists for good songs that make you sweat.. but i was wondering if any of you guys had suggestions of what you listen to that gets your heart pumpin and body moving at the gym!!

    I was just about to make a similar thread, I need some upbeat songs to work out with. Not so much a country fan though!

    Going to stick around and look at the suggestions :D

    Sevendust, Bobaflex, Pantera, Stereomud, and Metallica keep me going at a good rate, along with some of the party/80's music, like Motley Crue, Poison, etc.

    I use Sugarland's Incredible Machine album regularly. Really good album mostly solidly uptempo.

    All my gym playlists must have "Flo Rida - Good Feeling" and "Neon Trees - Animal". And no country music unless it's Uncle Kracker!

    I like to indulge guilty pleasures...the 90's had the right beat for working out. Think Spice Girls, MC Hammer, Presidents of the United States, Nirvana, Cranberries, Sir Mix a Lot, etc. etc. Definitely a guilty pleasure but no one can hear it to judge you! :ohwell:

    I have a workout playlist with about 200 different songs on it, with all different genres.

    Country is one of them, and while there aren't a lot of songs out there that get me pumped, here are a few:
    Devil Went Down to Georgia - Charlie Daniel's Band
    How Far Do You Wanna Go - Gloriana
    My Kind of Party - Jason Aldean
    One More Drinkin Song - Jerrod Niemann
    We Owned the Night - Lady Antebellum
    I Don't Want this Night to End - Luke Bryan
    Kerosene - Miranda Lambert
    Wide Open - Sugarland
    Swing - Trace Adkins
    Who Knows - Zac Brown Band

    Some of the other artists on my playlist include AC/DC, Backstreet Boys, Black Eyed Peas, Christina Aguilera (specifically "Fighter"), Eminem, Fall Out Boy, Green Day, Gym Class Heroes, Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Kings of Leon, LMFAO, Mumford & Sons, A New Found Glory, P!nk ("Trouble" and "So What" really get me going), and Yellowcard. Lots of diversity, as you can see.

    I really love runhundred.com. You can sign up for weekly and monthly e-mails with playlist suggestions. They list all kinds of music, including country, so you might like it. I believe they have only lists archived as well.

    I can't give country music specific suggestions, as I dislike the genre.
