Answer 1

Music tastes vary, so recommending bands could be futile. I will tell you that my gym plays techno, electronic, and dance music usually. It caters to a younger crowd--but there is always a fast beat going. There has been a scientific study (sorry i don't recall the name of it) that showed participants exercised and maintained a higher heart rate with music that had a consistent fast beat. I think a lot of gyms play this kind of music as a result. Hope this helps! Okay, I see you edited and want songs. On my mp3 player I have ATB -Everything is Wrong, Danzel-Pump it up, Faithless-God is a DJ (Yes he is), Kraftwerk-Autobahn, The Chemical Brothers-Delik and Otter Rock, and the list goes on. There is a good website called www.bestworkoutmusic.com that sorts music based on their beats--you can select your fave type of music and it matches your search. I use it for my mp3 player.

Answer 2

I have those songs on my mp3 participant to inspire me and preserve me going. Nickelback- Follow You Home Creed- Take Me Higher Sheryl Crow- Everyday is a Winding Road (nice bongo beats) Natasha Beddingfield - If You're Gonna Jump the lyrics and rockin perspective to this one are nice!(under) Life is song, play it louder If You're Gonna Jump, then bounce some distance, fly like a sky diver If you are gonna be a singer, then u bigger be a rockstar If you are gonna be a driving force, then u bigger force a race vehicle Cause I'm watching for a protect puppy, now not purchasing a chihuahua

Answer 4

Linkin Park

Answer 5

Run by Collective Soul
Running by No Doubt
and any songs from Run DMC

Answer 6

I know you said songs, but how about an entire album? (instead of a genre, as that is utterly unhelpful). I often listen to Bloodhound Gang's "One Fierce Beer Coaster." It's fast, has a good beat, funny, and, well, you know... they rock. [Insert satanic finger holding + headbanging fun]

Answer 7

The theme song from Rocky! when hes training. and the doors. and yea i normally ask my friends to make me fast mixes because not only do they know my taste in music but they choose songs that they know will remind me of something that makes me happy and run faster

Answer 8

I always loved running to CCR. And if you're into rock you'll know who that is.

I always used it for my stationary exercising as well. The driving beats are really motivational.

Answer 9

Anything with a hard beat to it, then on the rainy days try something like "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None The Richer.....

Answer 10

i like to go with Pop music, while normally i dont really listen to it, i feel it makes me go faster because of the beat. right now on my ipod i have things like brittany spears, ashley simpson and justin timberlake. i have a special folder on there so when i'm other places i dont have to listen to it. also i just put some nelly fertado on there. i like maneater and say it right. lol and eye of the tiger just hit me too.
