Running Song to sooth you and get you past that last mile
Speed of Sound by Coldplay
or
Viva La Vida by Coldplay
Other work out songs are
Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Point Of Authority by Linkin Park
Hey Agron, thanks for stopping by and for making suggestions for these other songs.
What do you’all think? Which of these songs would work for you? Which do you not like? What songs would you add to the play list?
Anything by staind is good 4 warming up,4 getting focused on the task ahead.
Once your ready 2 start sum heavy lifting,especially Back and Legs day,you ought 2 consider sumthing by the Breaking benjamins,So cold is an awsome track that u cant ignore.
Couple more good ones- Korn-coming undone
papa roach-forever
switchfoot-meant to live
seether-gasoline
Nick, thanks for those suggestions! I’ll check them out on Rhapsody!
I have lower body workout this weekend, will have to check out “So Cold”.
Good stuff, and looking forward to adding them to my playlist.
What else do you guys like? What would you add to the list?
Rob Zombie - Scum of the earth
Rob Zombie - Dragula
Korn - Coming undone
This is just to get pumped up, im listening to this and many more while training boxing and strength. I also like to listen to some techno songs once in a while.
Please stope with the Rocky tunes!!!!!! Very cheesy music. Mine involves some “Tears don’t fall”- Bullet for my Valentine
“Click Click Boom”- Saliva
Alot of songs by Mudvayne
Some songs by Egypt Central
Just go with what pumps you up I guess. Some times a hardcore rap song can even pump me up. You just gotta feel it! :)
Lose Yourself & Till I collapse - Eminem
Temperature - Sean Paul
Stronger - Kayne West
