Personal Workout Music vs Gym Music

Some of the best motivation in your workout can come from music. However, often the music provided by the gym sucks if you are at a club which has a very large range of clients. A great alternative to this is to bring your own music.

Not an informational article - just provides idea to use mp3 player.

What are your favorite songs to work-out or get pumped to?

I like to work out to songs that are up beat and to some that I can keep a beet to whe I'm doing a reps of crunches, curls, etc. Mostly I listent to the Black Eyes Peas, techno songs, and whatever is fast and has a tune to.

Trance, Static X, some more metal, and some more trance fuels my intensity

I haven't been that much into listening to music while training. My football coach wouldn't let us listen to music during our workouts. I suppose it was for mental focus or something, so music hasn't been a necessity for me in the gym.

That's an interesting approach, I would expect a lot of music to get pumped up and psyched for games.

I'll attach my playlist when I'm home with songs.

Some of my traditional ones

1. Eye of the Tiger - Survivor
2. Metallica
3. Slipknot

Oh man, "Eye of the Tiger" is a good one! Now I gotta put that on my iPod haha. I dont mosly listen to heavy metal or rock much but i've found that Marilyn Manson, Ozzy Ozbourn and Metallica have some songs that can are fun to listen to when I work out.

RAGE AGAINST MACHINE is awsome workout music makes you wanna screem another rep---------------

Theres nothing else out there that gets me pumped up as much as some kick ass rock. I usually listen to chevelle, tool, bush, linkin park, trapt.. and a whole bunch more. I cant stand not having my ipod in the gym.. i have a fit when i leave it in my car.

I like to listen to the harder stuff like Soilwork, Sevendust, and In Flames. The music is so aggressive that it keeps my demeanor correct for my workout.
