    Eye of the Tiger (for real, it's just so ridiculous that I love it)

    Anything heavy. I like angry metal. I feel like I push myself harder when I channel my anger into workouts, so angry songs help a lot. "Orchids" by Stonesour is one of my favorites. Really, just anything I can use to scream at people (in my head, of course...I think screaming lyrics in the gym would get me some strange looks :laugh:).

    Anything hardcore. Pantera, Anthrax, Metallica, Slayer. Anything that is hard and heavy. Angry metal is the answer.

    The Rocky theme

    Also anything upbeat and with some good bass drives me harder

    Got a whole week off work next week - think I'll be spending it on Dance Central!

    F You by Cee-lo

    Brokenhearted by Karmin

    Slide by Goo Goo Dolls

    Anything newer Justin Timberlake. It's the perfect tempo for biking. And it's sexy music.

    70's rock -- really depends upon the era you were raised. For me, it was the 70's. All of the memories of childhood, parents, friends and what I was doing when, are very inspiring.

    Till I Collapse by Eminem.
    Eminem isn't my most favorite, but that song gets me pushing hard every single time.

    I just turn on iheartradio and listen to country music.

    However, I find Exile has a great beat and is perfect for working out to.

    I was struggling to finish a 5k, when the Beastie Boys "Fight for You Right" came on my MP3 player. I flew over that finish line.

    I don't usually like this song but "ridiin solo" by Jason Derulo. It's empowering and super motivating

    For running, as much as I love angry metal, I've found I run faster and more effortlessly to LMFAO. Party Rock Anthem, Sexy and I Know It, Shots, Get Out of Your Mind. I feel like I'm pushing harder to metal, but I'm still about 10 seconds faster per mile to party rock. :laugh:

    Foo Fighters - nothing like Dave Grohl screaming at you for half an hour to keep you motivated.

    When I used to listen to my iPod when I ran as soon a Du Haust came on I'd crank the treadmill up and just go all out. If I was having a really crappy run I'd throw it on just to get me in the right mind.

    When I took a cycling class a friend of mine was teaching Du Haust was a must and everyone wanted to throw things at me when it came on LOL!

    When I do JM30DS I turn her on mute and pump up club/todays hits on pandora - anything that has me moving even during the warm up is great. LMFAO and Pitbull are favorites of mine.
