For me, working out requires the right music. I can’t run to classical music, elevator music, or some sort of on hold recording that you hear on the phone. It just doesn’t work. I need something with a great beat–something that will inspire me to keep my feet moving and the calories jumping right off my butt. And as long as they don’t come back to me, I don’t care where they go.
But back to the point: You just have to have awesome music to get pumped up and ready to work hard. Here are my favorite songs–in no particular order– to work out to:
- Kenny Loggins: “Eye of the Tiger”
- Kanye West: “Stronger”
- Rihanna: “Please Don’t Stop the Music”
- Gnarls Barkley: “Crazy”
- Cyndi Lauper: “Girls Just Want To Have Fun”
- Black Eyed Peas: “Pump It”
- Michael Jackson: “Smooth Criminal”
- Elvis: “Little Less Conversation”
- RedNex: “Cotton Eyed Joe”
- Trapt: “Head Strong”
- Chris Brown: “Run It”
- Drew Sidora: “‘Til The Dawn”
- Veronicas: “4Ever”
- Michael Buble: “It Had Better Be Tonight”
- Rihanna: “Breaking Dishes”
