Work Out Music

Any song that makes me wanna dance, I consider them my work out music. I actually work out without music. But after a little stretching, I dance and do consider that as exercising :)) I usually dance to Beyonce's songs. The beats and tunes are really catchy and dancy and that is why I choose her :))

When I do my workout and I have to do it everyday because this is part of my ongoing physio I play Korn or Rammstein. Music is very rhythmic and I love it. I'm sure other people play some pop or like Zumba lovers play latino. Good luck with your article. For whom you write if I can ask?

I'm not as young (or healthy) as I once was, and don't do much exercise, although I did a lot when I was young including press-ups, knee bends and weight lifting, but I never succeeded in becoming as muscular as I wanted. I had the kind of build that stays slim no matter what you do, eat, exercise, and so on. I'm not as slim as I was now, so I should still be working out, but I don't. At least, not much. But I'm still pretty agile and fit (amazingly), and occasionally, I'll do some exercise, but I really want to do more. Just recently I tried combining dance with exercise, but I didn't keep up with it; I must resume it. And a few days ago, I felt low, so put on some '80s Soul music (Shalamar) and did some dancing, and it cheered me up a little. What I'd like to do is exercise more regularly, and my work out music would definitely be Soul, or Disco music, preferably from the 70s or 80s, because it really energises me. I don't have a favourite song to work out to, but Shalamar's "Take that to the Bank" would be up there if I did. Recently I played "Get on the Floor" by Michael Jackson a lot and did some dancing to it. So that song would be a favourite if I had one, because of the incredible exhilerated energy it suggests. It makes me want to move, which is a good thing. Because unless I keep moving, I'm not going to be fit and agile for much longer.

Hi Philly! Well, that's maybe because each and everyone of us has different type and genres of music. For example, me; I can work well with a mellow music in the background. Its something like a connection. I don't how, but its just like that (I guess.)

Mine is 'Gonna Fly now' when running . The song is from the Rocky series. Gets me inspired to exercise when I remember those training montages. :) you can watch the montage here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwpN_kGKj_Q

Hi PhillyDreamer, I love to play every music that captures my ears wherever which genre it belongs, I just love to sing and dance even though I am not that good! I made lots of concert in the bath room and performances in front of the mirror,it sounds crazy but I know many of us doing this! Music is my passion and i can not live without it!

Hi PhillyDreamer! I usually play fast beat music. Maybe disco or remix. I don't think I would listen to mellow music as that would just put me to sleep. There is really no specific song that would keep me going. What is important is that it is upbeat.
