Looking to add some variety to my routine. What songs help you push through a hard run, or push yourself hard at the rack?
Here are some of my go-to tunes:
Man In The Mirror – Michael Jackson
I like the introspective nature of this one. It makes a good warm up song.
The Resistance – Muse
This one has a solid tempo, and relics that make you want to push.
Remember The Name – Fort Minor
Great for pushing weights around, or getting over that treadmill plateau.
Momma Said Knock You Out – LL Cool J
Don't call it a comeback! I like this one no matter if I’m running, working legs, or working the heavy bag.
I Don't Wanna Stop – Ozzy Osborne
This one is good for picking up a run with a moderate tempo, good for drawing out your stride.
Thunder Struck – AC/DC
I could work out to AC/DC all day long, but this song is my favorite.
Happy – Pharrell Williams
May seem a bit out of place, but I like this one for finishing a run, or cooling down after a heavy weight day.

Ok, I'm lucky. One of my kickboxing coaches gave me a great cardio playlist on Soundcloud so I use that for running.
When I'm doing kickboxing, I like the angry stuff like Rage Against the Machine, LL Cool J, Eminem, Nine Inch Nails, Metallica.
My fight song is Rage Against the Machine - Killing in the Name of and Gourilla Radio

Very nice! My heavy bag days sound a lot like my run days too. Gotta get some NIN in mine.

I find when I'm doing bag work the angrier the music the better. That way you really beat the hell out of that bag. I have a Thai coach and he listens to Pitbull and Salsa music for working out. Kills me. lol

I proudly jam out to high energy hip-hop/R&B/dance music. Pitbull, Kesha, Usher, Jason DeRulo...
I grew up in the 80s, so Freestyle Dance music will also get me moving; George LaMond, Lisa Lisa, TKA, Sweet Sensation, Cover Girls, Judy Torres, Lisette Melendez... Woot! :)

This may sound terrible to some (and possibly date me in the process) but I found a compilation of music from the "Now that's" series called "Now that's what I call running" it's a great compilation of old and new motivational music spanning from the 1970's through 2012. I put that sh*t on shuffle and let the jam session commence! Be warned: I have been caught rocking out and singing along to "Physical" by Olivia Newton John!
