    I HAVE to listen to music blaring in my ears. It keeps me focused and sometimes sets the pace for me.

    Very true!! I NEED to listen to my music while doing cardio, have to get my mind off of the work. Lifting weights it doesnt matter as much

    Music. I want to focus on my workout, not socialize. Wow, that sorta sounds mean but it's not meant to. I'm just not at the gym to chat, I'm there to burn some calories and kick my own *kitten*.

    Music blaring, the gym is not a social event, not even spinning class. Unless you're a 45 year old woman. :wink:

    I must be the mysterious 3rd type of person at the gym. I don't blare music into my ears and I don't talk to everyone... I just get on my machine, turn on the tv, work out, smile at everyone, and then go home...

    I'm definately the Ipod guy, I'm always listening to Rammstein or Muse at max volume.

    I think I am a bit of both. Depends on my mood. If it is a class, i like to socialize before it begins, and get familiar with my workout buddies. But when I have my focus on, I don't want to be distracted with chit chat. If i wanted to have a conversation, I would have stayed home. :smile:

    I don't use an Ipod lifting or doing cardio. So I'm neither when it comes to my own workout.

    Music all the way! I can't stand when someone comes up to talk to me with my headphones in just to ask if I want a free personal training session!
