Workout Music
 

Hope this isn't a repost :(

Like a lot of people, i use music to self motivate myself whenever i go for a jog etc. But what i've been finding is that a lot of my collection lack that upbeat tempo that usually makes me go that little bit further.

What do you guys recommend? techno? house? heavy metal?

Cardio only? I usually just listen to some hip hop
If I'm lifting I'll usually listen to rock, sometimes house

Yeah,when i lift weights iam listening to rock.

When i am going for my long runs....i found these songs through the NIKE site, beleive it or not, and i can't beleive its been helping me mentally during the runs. They are really upbeat, ongoing mixes that are about 45 minutes each. I seem to run best when these songs are playing.

Nike+ Original Run soundtrack:
De La Soul- Are You In
The Crystal Method - Drive

Im sure u can find a couple of samples here and there on the itunes site, youtube, nike etc....

Wow, thanks, ill check out that nike site mixes. Its insane how music can make you push that much farther.

Mentality plays a HUGE role in your workouts

Yep....ran for almost 2 hours straight without even noticing.

For cardio, I use some rap because i find it has a good rhythm and rock, and for weights I use heavy metal and rock, some rap in the mix to make me feel like a pimp haha. Also some house in there too.

"give me fuel give me fire give me that which i desire oooooooo" that one always kicks me off with a bang!

Ya, im going to give these both a try…i tested them on itunes, likin it so far!

I use WunderRadio phone app and usually stream Vocal Trance from DI.fm.

Both for running and weights

Metallica

I can only listen to metal cause it really get me fired up. Try All that remains, Trivium, As I lay dying, Bullet for my valentine, Rob Zombie, Children of Bodom.

Hip Hop and Rock for both cardio and weights! Depends what kind of mood Im in...

you know what i'm talking man :P. you can't leave out In Flames, those guys have some crazy songs that get you going even when your sitting on your computer chair haha.

Metal for me too. but when i'm running i like to listen to trance and kinda zone out of everythign and focus on running.

manson - Fight song, gets me going pretty good
i also listen to alot of old school Mudvayne and slipknot

and some fort minor? haha

Slipknot is great for the gym

Aqua
