Sometimes all that’s needed for a great workout is the right music for motivation, but using the same playlist over and over again can get boring and make workouts drab, too. The right tunes get the body moving in our state-of-the-art fitness center, cardio theater, and yoga and Pilates studio at our San Mateo apartment community. Read on for some inspiring playlist picks.
Keep a couple different themed playlists on your iPod for a fresh workout every time. Build one with the hottest workout songs and create another with the best of the 90’s or 80’s. Build a playlist of songs just for cycling, the elliptical, lifting weights, and doing aerobics, too.
Looking for a running remix for the treadmill? Mix it up with a variety of pop songs (like Janet Jackson’s “Feedback”) and rock songs (like Metallica’s “My Apocalypse”). The variety can help with both short sprints and long, uphill climbs.
Interested in what the professionals listen to when they work out? Celebrity fitness instructors’ playlists include upbeat pop songs like “Dog Days Are Over” to old favorites like “Landslide” by the Smashing Pumpkins, which goes to show that a good workout playlist doesn’t always have to be filled with dance and techno tunes. As long as a song, fast or slow, sparks energy and drive, it can be a perfect addition to workouts.
