Do you find listening to your favorite tunes actually motivates your work out

November 22, 2011 11:22pm CST
I have some songs I really enjoy on my ipod now, and they motivate my work outs allot. Like longer walks, and yoga routines things like this. Even just cleaning up around the house or doing everyday chores too. This music i love so much just lifts my spirits so much it's like a drug to me or a sense of security and even more strength in some ways too. Amazing to me the power this holds really.

i feel the same way. the up beat music that i listen to while jogging keeps me going for an extra mile or so. time passes by quickly when i'm listening to playlist during work out, and things actually can be done like cleaning the house.

Hi, woheri. Maybe you haven't found the right song yet is all, there is so much out there if not maybe you are motivated by other things more that this is just not too much of a motivator too that happens allot ya know if you are very focused in on so many other things or even just one really important thing to you too. Thanks,A.B.

They motivate me! I don't even notice the time when that happens. I keep listening, and I enjoy doing so while working out. My head is on the music and it's more fun to dance to the rhythm or work out to the rhythm!

Has always motivated me too, I don't notice the time either I find that sort of liberating and fun though. I agree so fun to work out too and just dance or whatever :) Thanks, A.B.

Sure, I do. Infact I am in office and listening to music right now. It just makes you feel good, as a result you work better. :) Whatever you may be doing. Books and music are my best friends. :)

I totally think so. I don't think I have ever started cleaning the house without music.That just won't work for me. And I always listen to music while working out too.Sometimes my favorite tunes and sometimes music with a good beat so it makes me move more :) Happy Mylotting!

Hi, ygna21. You sound just like some of my family members the more fun open minded one's any way. I like all kinds of music and love my ipod too so I can listen without people thinking me odd somehow for what I enjoy hearing. Cleaning house and all chores are funner with some tunes too, reminds me of old Marry Poppins movie too here. "Just a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down" Thanks,A.B.
