I know we've discussed, favorite type of workout music, but is there a particular SONG that you skip to when you're about to hit a really excruciating set? One that absolutely revs your engine up????

My changes with my moods obviously but lately it's been GnR's "Welcome to the Jungle" mmmmmmm.... now I want to go lift.......

Was a little sluggish this morning and Atmosphere's Trying To Find a Balance got me going during my workout. So, I'll go with that one today.

Could be a combo though since I had old school Metallica (Master Of Puppets alblum) blasting in the car on the way to the gym at 6:45am.

probably the most played song on my mp3 player in the gym is Godsmack's "I stand alone".

Unfortunately, my gym is adjacent to the cardio classroom. Their music is pumped into the weightroom (a variety of top-40 dance pop hits from those prefab workout cds)

If I had my way, I'd crank Fuel by Metallica.

The entire Badmotorfinger album by Soundgarden is hard to beat. Can't argue with Zepp though.

Black Flag is good but interestingly Henry Rollins says he always listens to ballads when he lifts -they piss him off

Lots of good tunes in this thread.

GnR's "Welcome...", yep, like it.

Zepp, oh but of course. In fact, probably anything off that disc except "Stairway" or "Going to California".

Disturbed? I BELIEVE that's a good choice too. Consider something off of Faith No More's "Angel Dust".

Don't think I've ever heard any "Godsmack" but ya gotta love that name.

George T., Soundgarden, Metallica, all good. Here's a couple real oldschool...Blue Oyster Cult's "Submission" and Nazareth's "Hair of the Dog".
