I am trying to put together a random kind of playlist. Tell me your number one workout song - and try to think outside the box. I already know about Eye of the Tiger... LOL

For example, my new fav is Rumor Has It by Adele.... :)

    I like Kelly Clarkson's Stronger when I'm on the bike. It helps me get over those 'climbs' :)

    I put "Stronger" and "Power" by Kanye West (even though he's a giant DB..), along with "Waka Waka" by Shakira on repeat all the time. They're just very upbeat songs that make me want to move! I also love "M79" by Vampire Weekend and "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" by Eve w/ Gwen Stefani (oldie but a goodie!). "How You Like Me Now" by the Heavy is a great one, too!

    I have to change up my playlist often-- I have musical ADD. ;)

    For some reason I love Sick Sick Sick by Bayside for running. It has a great tempo.

    B.O.B by Outkast is one of my all time favorites. I also like Drop It Low by Ester Dean ft. Chris Brown, and recently, I've discovered that Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne is great for cardio. I am quite embarrassed to admit that but it's got a loud, fast beat. :blushing:

    And I've got Rumor Has It by Adele on my iPod, but it never occured to me to add it my cardio playlist. Thanks!

    I've said "Black Friday Rule" by Flogging Molly on similar threads, but today I am feeling more like "Reach for the Sky" by Social Distortion.

    I am normally a rock and blues girl but when it comes to the gym it's usually rap/hip hop.

    Top 3 songs that I HAVE to hear while doing cardio:

    1) Til I Collapse by Eminem <
    That one makes me push myself a little further each time.
    2) Disco Inferno - 50 Cent
    3) Lose Control - Missy Elliot

    They're older songs but work for me every time. :smile:

    Oh yeah-- Britney Spears' "Piece of Me" is another one I will play 5x in a row.

    And in case anyone doesn't understand this already -- there is no shame when it comes to the workout playlist. Whatever gets me shakin. (And I'm a huge music snob in real life.)
