Over recent months I keep forgetting to take my Ipod with me to the gym which means that I haven’t had any motivational music to keep me going while I pedal away at the bikes or attempt to run for anything over a minute *oops*. Instead I have to rely on the music playing at the gym which in all honesty isn’t quite to my taste, or the right sort of motivation that I need to work hard. With my marathon next week *eek* I am trying to build up playlists to keep me going over eight hours.
I put together a collection of some of the tracks which keep me motivated in the gym. These aren’t neccessarily the types of tracks I would listen to at home but they have good beats and are great to get me moving at the gym.
Love a good playlist – I have all sorts floating around. Thanks for reminding me to share some soon!
Haha, ok I love you for the simple fact, you’ve got D12 on the list. Got some great picks, it’s quite handy to have a YouTube playlist cos without a doubt, you’ve always got your phone x
Love me some Eminem .. must to the head shaking of my brothers hehe.
Oh my God I have had D12 stuck in my head for about 5 days and this so did not help lol! Great playlist though all I would do is remove Daniel Bedingfield (because I have a massive irrational hate of him) and give you these little gems as suggestions: Cher Lloyd-Want You Back, and Macklemore and Ryan Lewis-Same Love! x
Good luck with your marathon next week and glad you’re finding good musical motivation.
My Band by D12 has always been one of my favourite songs haha I absolutely love Eminem! x
I always have to have a gym playlist!! I’m all for the upbeat numbers imagine trying to work out listening to somewhere over the rainbow! Just no!
Motivational music is great to keep you going, I’m a huge fan of Bastille too.
Aaaah Eminem! I love that guy š
True that the music at the gym is usually… not great.
Mika
Music definitely helps me get motivated in the gym!
I go to gym a few times a week and I defiantly think music helps keeps me motivated š
Great motivation songs
Okay, I have to make this kind of playlist too to kick my motivation up in the gym. Haha. Will get some from yours! š
I never go to the gym so I don’t have a playlist like this haha
I havent been to the gym in years but rock and metal tunes were my thing when I did x
I need a motivational playlist too haha! I haven’t been to the gym in a while!
a great mix! i swear hollaback girl just makes me shake it in general haha haven’t heard it in a long time
I love my gym playlist, I always have a bit of Limp Bizkit thrown in there as they always get me motivated!
I don’t have a playlist, i wouldn’t know how to get it done. It would help to keep me motivated.
A good playlist is a must at the gym! I love a bit of Beyonce for motivation.
