Weight lifting music....

[squatpuke]

I typically listen to Christian music and radio.....however, when I lift weights I gotta have some destruction going on in my head with my mp3 player...

ACDC
Metallica
etc.

Anyone else the same....otherwise I gotta listen to all that Beyonce/JLO/Brittany crap that the health club pipes into the gym.

 

[intricatic]

Hmm... I go with Iced Earth / Blind Guardian / Therion.

 

[MoreInSorrow]

I'll listen to anything from Haste The Day and As I Lay Dying, to Ice Cube and Tool, System of a Down.....but I ALWAYS listen to hard stuff when I lift. The radio station playing in the gym plays Chicago's 'alternative' station, which sometimes isn't too bad, at least for lifting.

 

[HawaiianTropicalDude]

anything but techno or pop radio-agree on gym music.yeechhh
alice in chains and jethro tull for me

The radio station playing in the gym plays Chicago's 'alternative' station, which sometimes isn't too bad, at least for lifting.

From the few times I've caught it, it's a pretty good station.

I prefer Alice in Chains, System of a Down, Nirvana, Guns n Roses, White Zombie, Rob Zombie, Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, Pixies, and a few songs by Modest Mouse, Sonic Youth, and Neutral Milk Hotel. And if I feel like reliving high school, Powerman 5000.

Oh, and for the record squatpuke, I had squats. After high school football, I refused to ever do them again (at least with free weights).

I don't weight lift. But I know the answer: Metallica.

 

[blackwasp]

^Yeah, I forgot about Metallica, as well as Sabbath and Ozzy.

I do my squats on a Smith Machine. Much safer for me, and I can go heavier that way. Plus, it's kinda hard for a guy almost 6'5" to get parallel with free weight squats. At least for me it is.

Hmm... I go with Iced Earth / Blind Guardian / Therion.

Just for the record, Therion is awesome

 

[Arnold_Philips]

Dance music or anythign mindless, repetitive, and long for running or other cardio.

Hip-hop for weight-lifting. I can't stand metal.

 

[Links234]

Metal for weightlifting!!! It gets me pumped.

 

[mercytriumph]

When I lift I prefer STP, early Pearl Jam, ZAO, No Knife, Norma Jean, but when I go running I like Jam Bands, like Blue Oyster Cult, Grateful Dead, or Jethro Tull...I don't know what I'd do without my MP3 player hahaha

 

[ImaginaryVoyager]

AC/DC Back in Black. Best album for circuit training.

 

[Yamialpha]

Same here, squatpuke. Personally I listen to Motley Crue when I'm exercising.

 

[ThinkJesus]

Anything from the first 4 Ramones albums. Make sure you have a lot of them queued up, each song is only 2 minutes long!
