Though I have always been active, the majority of the time, I have done my workouts and athletics in the afternoon or evening (usually evening because that tends to be when I am most mentally awake). After reading about the health benefits of a morning workout, however, I decided to incorporate it into my daily routine (or at least try to!). Of course, since I am not a morning person at all, I need some music to keep me going.
I just finished my morning workout for today - a HIIT routine. I worked out to the music of Meat Loaf. Almost anything by him gets me moving and revved up!
I also love to work out to:
1. 80's rock
2. Symphonic Metal (Nightwish, Within Temptation, etc.)
3. Woflgang Petry (German schlager artist)
4. Rocky Soundtrack (would probably fall into 80's, see #1)
For those of you who work out a lot, what music/songs do you like to work out to?

Though I don't really exercise, I do love my rock music. No matter what. Even when I am doing things around the house. And I have plenty to do around here. LOL. But today, even though it is raining and overcast, I am sweating like nothing else. So, I did a few things this morning now I am just chillin'.

That's great! Any particular bands/artists/eras you really like or do you just listen to rock music in general?

I have two workout playlists on my iPod: one country and bluegrass, and one rock.
