I'm one of those people that has to listen to music when working out alone. The snappy fast beats motivate me to keep moving, especially up hills or in the last five minutes of my workout when all I want is to be done. I've asked you what songs you love to listen to when exercising, but in case you need some more ideas, check out this list compiled by Fitness magazine. There may be some new ones to add to your workout mix.
To hear the top 10 just press the white arrow after you read more.

Wow, these are some pumping tunes. I will forever love "Ain't No Other Man." I can't not move when I hear that song. What's your favorite workout song right now?

Uh, all played out...sorry:)
1ugh, i don't listen to that crappy radio music.
2Yeah it is played out, but it would have been perfect a few months ago! xD
3I admit it - I'm still into these songs. Old or not - they have a great beat. But I also love to run to songs like "insane in the membrane," and "Manstealer," "vogue," and "super freak."
4I never like lists made by magazines or by most other people in general. It always includes music I don't listen to, especially since I don't really listen to mainstream music and in this case, the most :"alternative" stuff is all stuff I have never listened to because I'm really not interested. Right now my own mix might include some of the louder songs by The Kills, maybe some songs by the band ESG, Search and Destroy by Iggy & The Stooges, maybe some faster David Bowie songs, The Slits and other similar music.
5Here are some I think should be on the list...
"Move Your Feet" Junior Senior
6"No More Sorrow" Linkin Park
"Faint" Linkin Park
"Guilty Pleasure" Cobra Starship
"Starlight" Muse
The only one I like on that list is Beautiful Day. I think the best songs are 'Run to You', 'Keeps You Runnin', 'Gotta Get Thru This' and the whole self-titled Britney cd.
7any mix by girl talk
8italianblonde i'm with you. i can see Beautiful Day keeping me pumped.
9em113 - I second Girl Talk!
10I think I've seen/read this article. Yeahhh a lot of these songs are overplayed, but in terms of keeping you moving.. :]
11For the love of god, why is there not ONE workout mix without Black Eyed Peas/ Fergie? I can't stand them/her!!
12I have a lot of those on my iPod already. I agree that some of the songs are a tad overplayed, but I usually don't listen to the radio much.
13I hate that I'm admitting this but most disney channel stars' songs appeal to me when I'm working out. I mean on my own, working or studying, I'd go with Bach, Chopin, Metallica or Cloud Cult. Then when I'm on the treadmill, Sneakernight is the first thing to play. Then Aly and Aj's Like Whoa etc etc.
14Yeah I agree, that musics too old and has been over played to much.
Personally I like techno, rave, house music for working out. Because they have a proper beat plus they tend not to get 'old' as the music you have listed.
15songs from musicals. seriously!
16i only own 12 of the songs on that list! i generally work out to whatever album i'm currently obsessed with or put my 'all my favorite songs' playlist on shuffle. right now i'm digging alanis morissette's "on the tequila" & jason mraz's "i'm yours."
17hmmmm... not to my taste.
i think the ultimate work out song is Work by Kelly Rowlands (Freemasons Remix).
I like to listen to music that has a sort of aggressive element to it - something that will pump me up!
'I Go Hard, I Go Home' by The Presets is great for getting through a difficult sprint.
18Rock, Salsa and Brazilian Music. Some arias for swimming.
Some of these songs I know because of my daughter. But I am old, I don't live in the US and I don't listen to the radio...
19Guns and Roses....Welcome to the Jungle!!!
20Don't appreciate the cussing on the work out songs songs.
21My father taught us kids, " Cussing is a stupid man's way of expressing himself."
Your web site is NOT for my family and friends.
Im in Miami b*tch and stronger by kanye west even though it's old
22Hmm... there are better songs for workout. I prefer songs like the first 10 ones. A where are all those cool pop Britney and The PCD snogs that are perfect for workout? Most of the songs are a little... not so moveable and cheering.
23where is Britney Spear !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!_
24My fav workout songs are still Daft Punk "Around the World" and Benny Benassi "Satisfaction" great for cardio, resistance training and even the bike.
