What music do you train to?!

[-AC-]

/what songs make you really want to train. i cant train in silence and good music really fires me up for a training session. so what songs get you going the most? mine are:

i also like songs like the game, eminem, 50 cent etc.

alternatively limp bizkit and marilyn manson are good but too much swearing to put on here really. :)

[Glenn]

I find this kind of thing gets me to where I need to be for those heavy sessions!

[MonsterMark]

In my opinion Guns & Roses - 'Appetite for destuction' is the best ever training music.:)

[Machine]

i THINK I TRUST YOU GUYS NOT TO LAUGH WHEN I SAY ROCKYS SOUNDTRACK GETS ME THROUGH THOSE HARD SESSIONS. OH AND LIMP BIZKIT BREAK STUFF

[gonna_get_muscular]

yeah i like that 50 cent one aswell as till i collapse remix with eminem and tupac http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaNo0heX0LA and to machine i have rocky theme tune on my ipod too! i love the rocky films i also got some club music and some 80,s like final countdown and stuff

[-AC-]

cant believe you put that song GGM. that is my favourite song of all time. i have literally rapped the full 7 minutes of it on many occasions. break stuff and hot dog are also 2 great songs.

[gonna_get_muscular]

yeah its great tune! i have rapped to it aswell sometimes not even knowing that i am till halfway through :D

[gonna_get_muscular]

[Swigsmcfc]

i THINK I TRUST YOU GUYS NOT TO LAUGH WHEN I SAY ROCKYS SOUNDTRACK GETS ME THROUGH THOSE HARD SESSIONS.STUFF Im with u on that 1 pal! Eye of the tiger gets me thru squats! And any angry rap like eminem lose yourself or tupac hit em up also helps get me psyched up. I tried looking for the song off the karate kid aswel you're the best around i think its called, cudnt find it on itunes tho but that made me feel like goin gym when i watched it the other week!

[-AC-]

its by joe esposito. the best around. i think arnold posed to that music in the 1980 olympia.

[Swigsmcfc]

Quality cheers mate i'll have a look!

[paorod23]

I agree with all of the above, but my tracks were DUBSTEP, kinda disco with garage and Rnb mix on it.....

[-AC-]

Dupstep is ace.

[dieselbhoi]

ya man!! break stuff rulez!! lately i've been working to jay-z's black album by pete rock..good stuff.. now its timbaland..

and this kinda stuff (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imp0BqHBxyQ) makes me go mental!! this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OaunnIo_mI&feature=player_embedded) made me lock the clock on treadmill!! (well..nearly..;D..)

[LewisR]

it depends what im doing , on my cardio runs i do this thing where i make a playlist and for each song i imagine a situation like i was in a documentary like a rock song to which it shows me in the gym training , another good tune where im posing on stage and like a soft melodic tune to where the credits are rolling showing the highs and lows of where i had been to get there lol its so weird but the 45 mins flies by !!!

[-AC-]

daydreaming is the best thing in the world to get you through cardio. I remember back in the day i usd to have to bike about 6 miles to school and had my ipod in (1st generation beast), and the only thing that kept me peddaling was some hardcore rock and daydreams of me killing my dad for making me bike to school when he drove my sister there every day. good times.

MATE SO TRUE !!!!! SAME HERE HAHA

[Tank]

Metal, and only metal. I normally listen to Bleeding Through to pump me up as particular songs trigger bad memories, which in turn get the blood flowing. After that, anything fast and blasty - Soilwork, The Black Dahlia Murder, Shadows Fall, older Killswitch Engage, Machine Head, Chimaira, DevilDriver... if it's post-90 and riffy, chances are I'll work out to it.

[robisnow]

Ac i might use that myself... the gym i go to theres always someones ipod on with some podcasts playing, sort of heavy dance tunes, it works but i prefer a good bit of rock or rap! lol
I remember when i had upped a run to the longest distance i had ever done before, i had my ipod on shuffle, and just as i was losing heart and felt like giving up one of those really inspirational songs came on- and i was like, yeah come on i got this now!
...shame i cant remember what song it was now!

Ive got 2 different playlists for the gym, one for weights and the other for cardio. Drum and bass for cardio, and pretty much just all Wu Tang Clan for weights.

theres a guy in my gym that listens to beethoven, bach and all that stuff. He says he does it cause it helps with his rhythm and helps him with good form.

[numerouno]

I was thinking about listening to classical music during my weights sessions for enhanced focus, really bored of all the stuff on my ipod at at moment.

I remember reading about a guy who listens to Celine Dion whilst training, how sad is that!!

And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
