No, I don't mean sexually. Good/new music, for me, is what makes or breaks my workout. I know I have a good list of songs that make me want to pillage some steel, but I'm always looking for new ones so those don't get old.

Mine:
Europe - Final Countdown
Adema - The Way You Like It
Sevendust - Face to Face
Cold - Suffocate
Static-X - Cold
Mostly anything by Linkin Park or Metallica
Mushroomhead - Sun Doesn't Rise
Eye of the Tiger (of course)
Live - Top
Blindside - Pitiful
Seether - Remedy
Three Days Grace - Wake Up

What are some of yours?
 
i really like atreyu's new song "her portrait in black", its not their best song but when they sing about can you feel the burn, and can you feel her running through your veins... it makes me think of someone trying to impress a girl they like by pumping iron. hence running through their veins and feeling the burn. i agree, metallica and linkin park are great bands for working out, as well as slipknot.
 
I like the linkin park vs. jay z stuff...that stuff is all fast and loud. Also, Eminem works for me, cleaning out my closet gets me pissed off enough to lift the gym
 
one pick

My dragon boat team was land training a couple weeks ago and just as the team was getting into the swing of things, ACDC's Thunderstruck came on. We were doing circuits, and I was resting in between sets when the guitar came on, which got me all excited. When the drums finally came in, I was so ready to go. Needless to say, it's become a favorite of mine for working out to.

I also like Mudmen's Underdog. Hard rock with bagbipes is hard to beat!
 
I love System of a Down to get me going for my workout...Pantera is good also, Mushroom Head..and a great aussie band called Spiderbait.
 
ok so i'll be the big weirdo- beethoven..it always me to concentrate on form and do a good count per rep, helps keep the focus..
 
I found a DJ mix by Richie Hawtin the other day that really got me going...no particular song, just the whole mix. Impressive energy and tempo, very motivating.
 
Old guys like me listen to classic rock.

The Stones
Zeppelin
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Bad Company
Joe Walsh
Hendrix
Grand Funk Railroad
 
normally find myself breakdancing tunes and hip/hop underground do it for me...


run DMC, fatman scoop, fat joe, grandmaster flash, snoop dogg and nate dogg, etc. etc. sure non of the above agree to this sort of music...

Jenn i dont think listening to beethoven means you're a weirdo, but it's pretty unusual...
 
to get me pumped i listen to
dmx
limp bisket
li jon "grand finale"
50 cent
tupac
rev run
black eyed peas
 
Anything by Pantera, Six Feet Under, Mudvayne, Tool, Metallica, Jungle Rot. I like all kinds of music but these are my favorite to listen to at the gym. I have to take my MP3 player to the gym. I cant stand the music they play over the speakers in the gym. You would think you were in a dance club or somthing. :mad:
 
KoRn
System of a Down
Linkin Park
Disturbed
Godsmack


A playlist with those five groups gets me going
