Suggestions for my workout mix |
Lead | |
|
I need some new songs for my workout mix. I prefer hip hop, electronica, or world music but love anything with a good driving beat that's catchy. I
listen to this mix when I run or on the elliptical.
Please and thank you! |

I love listening to "When I Grow Up" by the Pussycat Dolls when I'm on the treadmill. Something about the beat just falls in sync with how fast I
run/walk.

A Little Respect, Erasure - has a good beat for workouts; not too fast and not too slow

For my workouts, I have to keep it completely pumped or I start losing steam. I'm no fitness master, but I like to run several times a week. Around the
fifth jogged mile, if I don't have something really jamming in my ears, I will putter out almost immediately. I've found that Cyndi Lauper's 2008
dance album is a really good workout friend, minus the first track. It's really energetic and bombastic. I can't tell you how many times "Into the
Nightlife" has saved me from giving up.

OMG, smrtie!!
These are some good suggestions so far. Have to say I'm not a classic rock fan, though. |

Too bad. A really good rhythm for running and circuit training, etc. is the entire paul simon graceland album.

I wouldn't consider Graceland classic rock, Kimbob. I like the album, but not really for working out.

the fuck is world music?
|

n.
Music from cultures other than those of Western Europe and English-speaking North America, especially popular music from Latin America, Africa, and Asia. |

Yeah, world music is just another way to otherize non-Western cultures. It just lumps them all into one category as though they are in some way similar.
