Workout Playlist Week 4!

Enjoy!! 

 Hello Good Morning – This song will wake you up in the morning!!  I think it’s a great start to a workout playlist.  Gets you up and out the door, down the street, around the corner, and down a good stretch of the road/trail. 

Icky Thump – This songs would be good from trudging up a hill methinks.  Or a mud run… Or if you feel like bobbin your head while you run.

Rocketeer – this song is fun to sing because of the falscetto (sp?).   It makes you just want to glide along! “Where we go we don’t need roads” possible trail song?  I think so. Also talks about flying, which is always a sign of a good running song

Outta Your Mind – This song makes my blood boil in a riot kind of way.  An adrenaline surging, hysteria inducing, rant of a song!  This will definitely wake you up. “Get Outta Your Mind!”

Love Like Woe – This song makes me happy!  It’s great beat and catchy lyrics will make your athletic endeavors all the more enjoyable! 

Cmon Catch Em By Surprise – This song is great! Great beat, fast lyrics, some techno sound, random encouragement yelled in the background (Cmon!).  Success guaranteed

Injection – This powerful Rise Against song is good for a steady fast pace. Try picking up your run or cycling for the length of this song and go anaerobic!  Just an idea

Beast Mode – This could be a good song for when you feel like quitting because it pumps you up so well. Who can wimp out when you hear the words “I’m in beast mode”?  No one. So listen to it. 

Higher – This is a new personal favorite of mine! I’ve been listening to it on repeat for the last week.  Ah it reminds me so much of running because of that kindof euphoria you get when you really go hard.

All of the Lights – This song has a good rhythm and the feel of a song that can put you in the zone and just go.  Plus Rihanna is awesome.

Bleed it Out  - I feel like this is a classic athletic song but it is that because it’s awesome!  For those of you who haven’t heard it, you are in for a muscle twitching, sweat inducing, adrenaline rush of a song!

Drop Down – This is awesome especially when it gets to the chorus! You just want to sing along and move!

Hold It Against Me – Britney Spears is back with a punchy techno/pop song that is uber catchy and awesome to workout to.

I Will Not Bow – This song makes anyone who hears it feel like a badass.  When the chorus comes on: “I will not bow! I will not break!” you get a surge of determination that propels you threw any grueling stage of any grueling sport! 

Dreams Up – The start of this song is so soothing.  Good for when you need to relax and lose yourself.  The melody is so sweet.  Fast lyrics and beat keep you going but this song has a cool down quality too

Time Flies – Great hip-hop song.  Also with a calming but upbeat quality like the last song. I love the lyrics!  Very motivational!  “What are you waiting for?” “Let’s change the game”  

This week’s Workout Playlist!! Hopefully some new favorites for you lovely tumblrs!

Empire State of Mind - Makes a good out the door and rollin’ song

La La La - A good song for when you’re in your awesome zone and can just let loose some miles and also for spinning

A-Punk - a good song for the middle of your run and your just crusin’

Say Hey - this is a good cruise control song for running too, i think

All the Small Things - just love the cruising songs, but maybe the faster sound of this song will make you go faster? During the nana na na nananana part

Drop it Low - this song reminds me of running up a hill or cycling up a hill

Check Yes Juliet - fast break song - maybe  a ‘just busted out of the gates and need some space in this race’ song. “Run baby run!”

Kick Ass - for when your feeling uber tired and are thinking, “Why the hell am I still going??” Because “we are young! We are strong!”

I’m Not Running Anymore - of course you’re still running but i like this song so ignore the title. I think I got this from tumblr user easyrunner. Thanks man!

Teach You to Fly - sorry for the profanity but cursing is proven to alleviate pain so what are you complaining about?  Go with it. 

Welcome to the Club Now - i love a good techno song. this one keeps you wanting to maintain a fast pace (running or cycling) match the beat!! go go go!

All I Ever Wanted - because one techno song wasn’t enough. This one makes me want to dance so that’s awesome. Run to it!

Hey - hip hop make your body go faster. yep.  love this one!  give it a listen! this could be a power song! excellent for cycling too

Right Above It - one girl told me that she doesn’t run outside but she heard this song and she went outside and ran to it on repeat for like 30 minutes lol. So it must be good!

Shut Up and Let Me Go - this reminds me of running along at a good steady clip and not going too fast but not too slow either. Try it!

Kiss Britney’s Boyfriend - this is a mashup of some awesome songs that are guaranteed to get you moving! Titus Jones is the DJ check out his tracks: http://www.titusjones.com/ Free Downloads!

Bottoms Up: my roomates love this song! lol funny memories associated with this one.  I love the snap.  

Stutter - I love this song!! I thought this would be a good winding-down song.  His smooth voice has a calming effect does it not?
