Music To Sweat To

[Blank_Dave]

Ok, in an effort to throw up a little more positive post than last nights, here we go.

What do you like listening to when you work out, but it hitting the weights, the road on foot or on wheels, the cardio machines....Ok, and for HOF's favourite sport fucking.


It gives us a chance to see what others listen it, and maybe get a few other ideas...

For myself, I have only 94 tracks in my Work Out playlist....
Alice Cooper's It's the Little Things
Anthrax's Bring the Noise, Caught in a Mosh, and Madhouse
Half of Atreyu's Lead Sails and Paper Anchors
Avenged Sevenfold: 1/2 of Avenged Sevenfold, and all of City of Evil
Billy Talent: Billy Talent II
Deep Purple's Highway Star
Disturbed just about everything of theirs
Drowning Pool: Rebel Yell, and Soldiers
Faith No More: Epic
Ill Scarlett: Nothing Special
Slipknot: most of All Hope is Gone
Lacuna Coil: Survive
Three Days Grace: Pain, Animal I Have Become, and Just Like You

Some of the songs mixed in there need some tweaking. I also need to add Avenged's Nightmare and Disturbed's Asylum albums, as well as pick through ManoWar's offerings.

Deep Purple's Highway Star

I have so many fond memories of blasting that song while driving my first car (1981 2-door Mazda RX-7, cherry red)... it was on the Dazed and Confused Soundtrack, one of the first CDs I ever owned, and I had to hook up my crappy Discman to one of those tape adapters, because the car didn't have a CD player. I played that album a million times while flying down the Gardiner near my house... those were the days! arty:


Sorry for the nostalgia... Workout tracks? I find myself listening to Guns n' Roses a lot, sometimes Velvet Revolver, especially for cardio... a lot of stuff from Appetite For Destruction is good to get myself pumped up, and I'll listen to some of the slower tracks on Use Your Illusion II when I'm winding down.

Otherwise, I'll listen to hour-long live sets from some of my favourite DJs... easy to get lost in the music, and it also allows me to time my workout without constantly looking at the clock; I usually know about how long I've been working based on how far into the set I am. Pendulum (drum & bass) and Infected Mushroom (psytrance) are two of my faves, depending on how fast I want the tempo to be. I'll even listen to some Happy Hardcore from time to time (please don't laugh) because the tempo is very upbeat, and it always puts me in a positive mindset, which really helps me get the most out of my workouts.

I wish I could offer more suggestions, but the hard drive on my laptop just crapped out, and I lost about 50 gigs of tunes... a lot of it was limited-edition stuff, or live sets recorded at parties I went to, and other music that I can't find online anymore... :frown:

I'd never lost a hard drive before I bought a goddamned Mac, and less than 9 months later, the thing up and dies on me!
