Music to workout to...

[snowbunny00774]

Alright - the working out starts at 6am tmw. I have to be in great shape by the start of March. I will be mostly swimming and the threadmill for now...the question is ...
what do I put on my MP3 player and the ipod shuffle?

I need the most workout inspiring music so what has worked for you??



Mods - please move if needed...wasn't sure where to put this.

I like Rage Against the Machine & Audioslave

Why the start of March? I'd say extreme polka, to meet the deadline.

Two reasons - The start of march is the Arnold Classic and I am going to watch, and don't want to be the fatest person there, and secondly, I bought a great shirt for St. Patricks day and want to look hawt in it

The only song I can think of at the moment:

Queen - Don't Stop Me Now

That song always makes me want to jump around

 

[gmc]

I bet you already look hawt....

Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack looks a good bet.....

 

[{paintedroses}]

Beyonce - Crazy in love

 

[WinnieThePoo]

honest advice
first , if it is possible , do it later , after work , school etc
your heart and body will not like those wondeful things in early am hours
pm hours after work are quite good ( take away all the stress )
but not too late either , do it before 9 pm

as for music

trainspotting soundtracks ( vol 1,2 )

brian eno and john cale ( wrong way up )

goodluck

[snowbunny00774]

Thanks everyone, these are great...after this am I hate morning workouts but I have no other time in the day so no choice. I will put all thses ideas on the rotation and let you know which worked best for me...keep them coming though

 

[dudeman]

i have to agree with the rage against the machine suggestion....that entire first album.
my favorite exercise music:
quicksand 'slip'
the whole album. hard, fast, makes you want to sweat.

 

[fly so high!]

i do Jazzersize to Gorillaz!!!
Don't laugh it really is a good cardio workout!!

 

[vivalapopedge]

I'd say Gwen Stefani's Love.Angel.Music.Baby. is a good bet cuz of the fast beats.
