Workout Music-Whats Your Song?



Recommended Posts

Hello all, I have been compiling my favorite workout music, but sometimes you just forget how many great songs there are out there. So let me ask what is your favorite workout song or songs that move you during a workout?

Being an Ex-DJ I have about 50 thousand songs left in my database, maybe we could put together an official BP Workout Song playlist even.

Oh also if anyone ever wants to have a favorite song made into a workout song, that is adding a beat behind it etc so you have that great thump thump, i can do that. free of course. I did a whole bunch of Metallica and the like, songs for my old Physical therapist who also runs those boot camps everyone is involved in. came out great. Just let me know.

Ill start,

My fave workout song is -Kickstart My Heart by Motley Crue.

I love hard driving music. (Its not everyone's taste) I love to take my stress and anger to the gym. It motivates me and has done wonders for my mental health.

Here are a few songs off my list. (tuns me in to a beast working out)

Adrenaline by 12 stones (love the lyrics)

Mr MTV by nothing more

Big bad wolf by In this moment

So many that it's hard to think of just one. I really like Lose Yourself by Eminem.

Cool down song - Part Time Lover by Stevie Wonder. Perfect for the slow jog

Work Out, high intensity - Titanium Club Mix by Sia featuring David Guetta.

Yoga or Pilates - Anything New Age-y like Enya

Those are just a few.

I don't have one favorite song but they have to be up-tempo, the kind of music where you want to get up and dance. I have been using "Rock My Run" app which has a good set of free music. There are times that the music is so good that I really want to stop walking/running and just dance but I don't want to look like the weird lady at the park! lol

Songs like: Dance to the Music, Footloose, We Got the Beat, that sort of thing.

I am so motivated by music when working out. I actually listen to iTunes radio, specifically the classic rock station.

Somewhere I still have an old cassette tape with Steve Miller Band Live! on one side and Rolling Stones (best of, or greatest hits or something), which I used to power-walk to.

Steve Miller Band:

Gangster Of Love
Rock 'N Me
Living In The USA
Fly Like An Eagle
Jungle Love
The Joker
Mercury Blues
Take The Money And Run
Abracadabra
Jet Airliner

I don't remember all of the Rolling Stones songs, but I know some were:

Mother's Little Helper

19th Nervous Breakdown

Paint it Black

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
