Working out is a drag.

Yes I said it! It may suck, but everyone has GOT to do it.

Believe me... I would rather be dipping oreos in peanut butter than climbing up the stairmaster until the brink of death. But oreos=fat ass and stairmaster=nice ass. HA.

My secret? I have a kick-ass workout playlist. These songs make me wanna get off up the couch, put the PB away and start sweatin'!


Mmmmmmm

20 songs to put on your workout playlist!

*****These are my personal song choices. A majority of the songs have adult content and language. Just a warning!

  • Justice---"D.A.N.C.E."

awesome,upbeat song. this is perfect during a hard part of the workout, because it has a fast chorus.

  • Christina Aguliera--- "Dirty"

has a fast, and catchy chorus which keeps me pumped!

  • Leona Lewis---"Bleeding Love"

a good warm-up song because it starts slow but by the end, it gets faster. This gets me ready to start working harder. I can't play this song during an intense part of the workout, it's too slow!

  • Ying Yang Twins & Pitbull---"Shake"

this song makes me want to get outta the gym and start dancin'!

  • Sublime---" 54-46 that's my number/ball and chain"

sublime motivates me for some strange reason, i love the lyrics and how bradley sings them!

  • Sneaky Sound System---"Pictures"

I love this Australian band. I work out to this song beach it is upbeat & catchy, techno-pop.

  • Alex Gaudino--- "Destination Unknown"

Google this video. enough said.

  • The Distillers---"City of Angels"

Angry woman punk rock = intense workout.......... brodie is inspiring!

  • Mos Def--- "War"

Insightful lyrics & guitar... I kick it up a notch when the guitar kicks in

  • Rob Zombie--- "Dragula"

The songs picks up so much in the chorus, it is fun to workout to...

  • Rhianna ---"S.O.S."

Rhianna's best workout song, screw umbrella!

  • Pussycat Dolls ---"Dont'cha"

  • The Sounds ---"Rock n' Roll"

the catchy chorus helps lift my spirits and take my mind off of the activity

  • Pitbull w/ Lil Jon --- "The anthem"

an awesome version of Alex Gaudino's "Destination unknown"

  • Pitbull --- "Ay Chico"

i love to workout to pitbull, even though I can't speak Spanish.

  • Madonna --- "Hung up"

the beginning of the song and the way the music builds up makes this song a good one to listen to while working out.

  • Kanye West --- "Diamonds are Forever"

the song starts out slow, and ends really strong

  • Kanye West ft. T-pain---"The Good Life"

although I am sick of this song due to overplaying, I still think it is a good song to exercise to because it brings positivity!

  • Tupac, Dr. Dre --- "California Love"

Awesome beat to do cardio to, and an overall fun song

  • Bob Marley--- "Redemption Song"

the PERFECT song to cool down too.

some awesome recommendations- I am always looking for new tunes to keep motivated, but I forgot about Zombie. He's got a great album that's 'technoed' up which is the perfect blend of hard rock w/dance beats!
