waynesworld Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Dear LS friends, What do you listen to when you work out? What psyches you up? Here are a few of my favourite (yes, I'm Canadian) beats: Work Hard Play Hard - Tiesto featuring Kay Spoilin for a Fight - ACDC Everything's Gonna Be Alright - James Doman If you're going to post YouTube links, please don't RickRoll me.

I don't wear ear buds because it usually just distracts me from what I'm supposed to be doing. Metal always gets me pumped. 80's hair metal is good for a laugh and a more light hearted training session. My gym refuses to play pop music of any sort, so I'm very lucky in that regard. Training environment can be everything. Link to post Share on other sites
USMCHokie Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I listen to whatever is playing at the gym, which is usually Top 40 Pop. However, the song that pumps me up the most is Miley Cyrus's Party in the USA. I try to fit in as many exercises as I can in that three and a half minutes... Link to post Share on other sites

Star Gazer Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Buckcherry - Crazy B*tch Fort Minor - Remember the Name That's the sort of stuff I listen to when lifting. Link to post Share on other sites
Jaytb Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I listen to anything and everything, classical, techno, pop, everything. I think I like techno best for working out but I'm pretty happy just having music to listen to while working out. Link to post Share on other sites
Pyro Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 For me I need certain music to motivate me to start working out. Once I start I could workout to silence. The official motivate Pyro to workout song: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7j8e_prodigy-smack-my-bitch-up_music Link to post Share on other sites
donnamaybe Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I like hard driving music that gets my blood racing. For my cardio I make sure I have a good 45-60 minute lineup of songs that are the right speed for either the bike, the treadmill, or the elliptical so I can workout in time to the music. Some are a little slower, I up the ramp on the treadmill or increase the tension on the elliptical. For those that are a bit faster, I do the opposite. Link to post Share on other sites
