  • I need good work out music, preferably with words. You know the ones that push you to run that much harder or that much faster.
  • I like to work out to Black Eye Peas, Keesha, Lil Wayne, Drake, Pennywise, or NOFX.
  • Ricky Martin.. The Cup Of Life! This only song that gets me up and shake my booty!
  • Insane in the Brain!
  • Rob Zombie, circa Dragula. Skipknot. Anything on the local hip-hop station.
  • Firework... Katy perry! Gets you going!
  • this is my playlist....make sure you add some faster inspirational songs...its amazing that when i am the most tired from the workout, these somehow manage to come on at the right moment to inspire me to keep on keeping on

  • I love waka waka, lavie!!! Awesome list!
  • When I work out, I like to listen to songs that would make me dance. I have a pretty wide taste when it comes to music (I love pretty much everything!) ...sometimes I'll just put my '80s or '90s playlists on shuffle, because there's so much "fun music" from those eras! But were I to put a playlist together, it may look something like this:

  • My 2 very favorite workout songs (that I have multiple times on my workout playlist) are Black Betty, the Spiderbait version, and Are You Gonna Be My Girl by Jet. Those get me moving every time!
  • i haven't really been able to find anything motivating for me yet, i have even tried a lot of ones people on 3fc have listed, maybe i will eventually, i guess its not too big of an issue. i think its a lot more to do with me, than the song..lol
  • Omg, do you remember the Jock Jams Megamix from like a decade ago? I loooove that one. Keeps me going every time!
