Workout Music Is Like Water – Better Fresh Than Stagnant
What music do you listen to when you work out?
Is it ACTUALLY suitable for working out?
Is it Hard?
Fast?
Happy?
Angry?
Moody?
Powerful?
Just plain Angsty? (my favourite!)
Or is it stuff you just LIKE to listen to?
Does THAT fact alone make it good for WORKING OUT?
Does it inspire Strength?
Speed?
Agility?
Or whatever you’re trying to accomplish in that particular workout?
And just how old IS your workout collection anyway?
Is it getting stagnant?
Maybe it’s time to change up your collection entirely? Or at least add some new or different stuff into your existing collection?
You’d be surprised what a difference FRESH music can make.
I discovered my collection was getting stagnant and possibly even holding me back:
And hey, since we’re talking about music today, how about we break out an old stand-by and resurrect the:
Workout Song of the Day !!!
Need something new to add to your collection? This is one of my new favourite cardio songs. The great beat and dreamy vocals take my head to far away places and turn my body to rubber and I can run like the wind while it’s playing.
Give it a listen then grab a copy for your collection by clicking on the “Buy” button on the player below:
Arcade Fire – Ready To Start
Love it? Yah, it’s a good one, right? Click on the Buy button on the player to add it your own collection right now …
Have a fit, fun and fantastic day.

For sure I run to music I actually end up running to the beat ..if I want to run quicker I need something upbeat ..slower yeah I run slower… I love running in the rain it actually feels closer to nature… But I can’t listen to music during weight lifting I need to concentrate on the lift a heavy deadlift or squat for me is not the time to think of anything else than the lift.

Yah actually I find that my running pace tends to match the beat of the song quite often… I try not to let it with the slower songs cuz I don’t really ever want to run slowly!!
As for training, I hear ya on that one… I worked out in silence for a long time but it just got boring and demotivating… cranked on some tunes and found huge strength in the anger in the tunes. really helps me.
