Gym music

[ViperXX]

What music do you guys listen to at the gym that gets you pumped? I have my own special mix I listen to on my shuffle but Godsmack always gets me pumped.

The sound of iron is all I need.

I've got a Metallica station on Pandora that normally does the trick, it's not required but sometimes it's nice to not have to listen to the crap they have playing at the gym.

Whatever top 40 pop hits the gym is playing. I don't go to the gym to dance or enjoy music, I go to lift. I also prefer to keep my sense about me and plugging my ears and blasting house music isn't the best way to do that.

I basically listen to trance and progressive house. But I listen to that everywhere

 

[TallBill]

I usually don't listen but it does help keep me in the mood. Electronic music usually works though, might try bringing headphones more.

Trip Hop(lot of variety), Instrumental Hip Hop, some occasional Russian Hip-Hop/Rap.

I really only like music when they are too many people jabbering in the gym that it distracts me. Weights knocking around and people grunting is soothing enough, the people talking can get to me though. That being said I actually never bring my own music unless I'm doing some lazy cardio, then I just listen to a podcast or something.

I used to listen to The Final Countdown occasionally before when I sprinted in track. It got me hilariously pumped, what a silly song.

Best stuff for lifting right there. Thrill Seeker is a must for leg day.

If you're doing cardio on a bike or eliptical machine, i highly recommend Paul Oakenfold's fluorescence mix. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8_PXxLObk4 . Particularly around 37:00 mark, the beat is just too insane. I find my self biking so fast getting pumped up from the beat, the bikers around me get off the machine because I make them look bad.
