SONG SWAP: THE TRIED AND TRUE
These are three songs that I've used for a while that are always, ALWAYS in the rotation for my workouts.
1. Outkast - Bombs Over Baghdad
This is actually my pace when I run. Before I found other songs that were the right BPM I would listen to this on repeat during runs. If you don't like rap this isn't for you but it that beat does not let you let up!
2. Lee DeWyze - Sweet Serendipity
I know this might be cheesy but this song really motivates me and is perfect for a light jog preferably in beautiful weather. I heard this song the day before my wedding when I was running last minute errands and had to shazzam it. I've always thought it was such a good message and can help motivate you to work it out!
3. Kelly Rowland - Commander
I don't know why she doesn't get as much attention as she deserves but Kelly Rowland created this song for elliptical lovers like me. If I took aerobics I'd expect this on the playlist. It slows down and picks up just ride it out!
Okay, so what are some songs that are always in your rotation?

Brass Monkey, Hey Jealousy, Shimmer, The Train!!
ReplyDeleteThe train is cracking me up right now! I'm about to add that to my playlist! HAHAHA!
DeleteI am totally crazy & listen to audiobooks while I work out. With the baby, I NEVER get to read actual books anymore, so it is a way to keep up with my reading & not lose any more of my precious time with Eleanor. I have found that it is super distracting, which is great since I don't actually enjoy running. I'm currently listening to The Maze Runner, a YA book that a lot of my students read for AR. I can get immersed in the book and ignore that I really just want to sit down.
ReplyDeleteO! And I haven't been able to ride my bike since I had the baby, but I just got a bike seat for her & can't wait to get back to it! Definitely better on my knees! How are you tracking bike work outs? Or are y'all just using them for fun? I use Nike+ when I run, and I'd love a similar way to track what I'm accomplishing when I'm on my bike!
