Okay so...
I'm like the least motivated person EVER when it comes to working out. I absolutely loathe it. Period.
But I've found a trick - listening to your ipod/cd player/stereo/whatever really helps keep you motivated, especially if you're a music lover like me. Getting into the rhythm really helps me to keep going.

So tell us, what's a good song (or two or three!) to work out to? Give us your opinion!!!
Hip hop songs are best in my opinion. I worked out to "Boom Boom Pow" by the Black Eyed Peas today - definitely one of my favorite workout songs!
