I think a lot of listen to music to make working out a bit more enjoyable...I'm trying to get some new music to work out to on my Ipod. Tell me, what is the best music that keeps you motivated when you're exercising?

I listent to mostly Top 40 and I know Money Maker by Ludacris would definitely pump me up! That is if I was on the treadmill. When I lift weights I don't listen to music.

I don't need music while lifting weights either. But the treadmill is painful boring with music isn't it?

The gym I go to has a mini tv equipped with cable/dvd player on each piece of cardio. That really helps so it's not so boring. Actually makes the time go faster.

For some reason I don't like to watch tv at the gym. I wish I did, but that just doesn't help me. I need real upbeat music or else I have no motivation. I barely have any anyway =)

Have u tried any song from ISKCON (International Society of Krishna Consciousness). Particularly one song I like very much i.e. 'GOVINDAM ADI PURUSAM'....u can purchase it from any nearby ISKCON temple.

One thing more...to understand the song u should have little bit knowledge about ISKCON philosophy.

I'm always updating and renewing songs on my Ipod Nano when I do my 5km run on the treadmill. My favourite songs are Children by Robert Miles Night Train by Kadoc Die Another Day by Madonna Firestarter by Prodigy I like fast music when I'm on the treadmill, and I can never get tired of these songs.

Personally I listen to alternative rock, New rock. Taking back sunday, all american rejects, the strokes, there some good bands. Whenever im running, I like to listen to really loud music, one of my friends recorded himself saying that your pathetic and stuff liek that, he puts it on repeat and runs with it. Its really whatever kind of music you listen to, but I would recomend new rock.

Try those 80's aerobics songs, like flashdance, bodyrock or even footloose. I'm sure they can help you to be more motivated!;)

My most like is Rock and roll, hoho. I don't listen music when I am work, because my company don't allow to do this, it make me don't focus on work. The most important I don't have enough money to get a Ipod, I hope I can earn enough money here to get one. I know my friend here will help me.
