Good Workout/Running Music

JustZak · #1 04-09-2006, 04:05 AM

Im looking for some suggestions for songs that get you hyped up and energized to run or workout. I prefer hip hop but am open to other suggestions.

Sweet child of mine is great.

I actually listen to podcasts while I jog. Not very inspirational, but it helps my endurance. It's easier for me to take my mind off my fatigue and I can actually jog longer.

As far as hip hop and rap go, I really like "Sky's the Limit" by Young Jeezy for getting pumped up.... I will post some more if I think of them.

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - almost any song - californication is a good album, and it even winds down nicely w road trippin'

oh yeah and for hip hop

House of Pain - Fine Malt Lyrics - again, basically the entire album, and obv. Jump is really good

I just threw this mix together, I think I'll actually use it on Monday. And to the haters, keep in mind that these are chosen based upon the intensity of the lyrics and beats, not necessarily their artistic merits [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Seventeen Years - Ratatat
Shinobi vs. Dragon Ninja - Lostprophets
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
Bombs Over Baghdad - OutKast
Beg For Mercy - G-Unit
Got It Twisted - Mobb Deep
Heat - 50 Cent
Violence - Cam'ron
Zen - Clipse
Let's Get It / Sky's the Limit - Young Jeezy
Ruff Ryders Anthem - DMX
Advance Pawns - The GZA
Pushin' Weight - Ice Cube
Warrior - Lloyd Banks

It's not perfect by any means, but I think it will get the job done.

I think 17 years should be on the back of that mix. The end of that song is just a downer.

When I was anorexic those were my favorite songs to make myself suffer even more.
