different types of music that are upbeat - 12/23/2010   10:03:52 AM

My favorite workout songs are a bit older than these here.... FAVORITE, is Sugar Sugar, and Hungry eye. - 6/9/2010   9:02:04 AM

Big Hair 80s like Warrant's "Down Boys" or "Uncle Tom's Cabin", AC/DC "You Shook Me All Night Long. Or I can go the other way and listen to "Hello Good Morning" by Diddy or "I'm in the House" by Steve Aoki. As long as it has a good beat, its on my ipod. - 5/29/2010   9:51:32 AM

I love the songs we dragon boat to... Sister Scissors - I don't feel like dancing;
and Tom Cochrane's Life is a Highway - 9/13/2009   9:51:33 PM

I've got the Britney Spears: Womaniser on my iPod that I saw in this article! - 9/10/2009   7:19:03 PM

I like any fast catchy tunes. The one that caught my eye was Pocketful of Sunshine. I really like it. - 9/9/2009   5:21:30 PM

I love all music that has a good beat . keeps me moving and I get good results in my step workouts. Can't just pick one. - 8/5/2009   8:24:12 PM

I posted this on another board, but I'll post it here too:
Music is such a personal thing. I absolutely love hiphop and funk when I'm doing cardio. Blackeyed Peas - Let's Get it Started and Destiny's Child - Bootylicious are 2 of my faves. Fatboy Slim and Moby are awesome too. But so is Enigma - if you skip the super trance-y stuff. Anything with a good, steady, rockin' beat! Oh - and Earth, Wind and Fire! Love, love, love them! - 4/17/2009   9:02:46 PM

Steven Curtis Chapman and Michael W. Smith have some really wonderful "fast beat Christian tunes".

Chapman's "All About Love" CD has at least 5 songs I can think of and Smith's "Go West Young Men" is an old title, but has some nice tracks too. Petra too has some great music. There is a lot out there. Go to iTunes.com and listen to samples. :0) - 4/15/2009   8:34:57 AM

I love Taylor Swift's new CD "Fearless". A lot of the songs get me going on the elliptical. I especially love "I'm Only Me When I'm With You" from her debut cd. - 4/9/2009   2:12:54 PM

Good day everyone. I'm looking for ideals of Christian workout song. I have collect a few that have a fast beat
Revolution (Kirk Franklin)
Talk about it (Nicole C Mullen)
Something Beautiful ( Newsboys)
No Plan B (Group I Crew)
Change a heart, Change the world (Jump 5)
Undeniably You (Avalon Remix)
Start Jumpin (Jump 5)
Don't Stop (V'enna)
Lose my Soul (TobyMac/Kirk Franklin)
Just wondering if anyone had any other fast pace Christian song to workout with Thanks (I get my songs through itunes)
- 3/16/2009   4:27:04 PM

I'm a Christian and don't know any of the songs listed on either site. I think it would be great if Sparkpeople could come up with a "religious" list of songs for people who don't or won't listen to this kind of music. - 3/10/2009   4:40:08 AM

Wow, thanks for sharing all these songs, I'm starting my playlist now. - 2/23/2009   2:10:40 PM

Has anyone heard Mary Mary's latest song "Get Up"? ... okay I just have to share some of the song: Layin' low rest and pause, sleeping long slow motion.Gonna do. should of could of would of done - EXCUSES. What are you afraid of? Don't you know what you're made of? One of God's greatest creations Take this invitation now ... GET UP! Cause you can't stop ... GET UP Got a lot to do. 24 hours almost gone ... GET UP! Don't sit there GET UP! If you wanna get there...clocks don't stop and time won't wait ... GET UP!

I had to share the lyrics cuz they're perfect for me! Gets me up every time! :) - 2/19/2009   4:26:27 PM

I love Pink's "So What" to get me moving - 2/19/2009   11:12:11 AM

Everyone has good suggestions...I may add some to my Ipod... - 2/18/2009   9:49:57 AM

Welll... I read through some of the comments and I was surprised to see there wasnt much rock or metal.. hah..
Being a metalhead and a rocker girl I love loudmusic that distracts me from my surroundings and lets me out of my shell.
for example, heres some stuff youll find on my playlist;

Dragula, Numb, and Living Dead Girl - Rob Zombie
Something in your mouth - Nickelback
Pet- A Perfect Circle
Into the night - chad kroeger and carlos santana
Carmelldansen by Caramell (techno)
Shut up and swollow - combichrist (hardcore industrial)
Pour some sugar on me - Def lepoard
Hungry for heaven - Dio
Supermassive blackhole - Muse
I Don't wanna stop - Ozzy Osbourne

anyways, hope that'll help others lookin for a bit more then dance and hip hop :) - 2/6/2009   4:15:06 PM

Here's the sad thing for me: I have two seniors in high school and I still haven't heard of some of these artists! I can say that I'm not up to date on the current music. I LOVE my 80's! However, I'm listening to the spark people list right now to see what I actually have heard and know! Maybe I'll catch up to the current when it's the past, who knows?? - 1/31/2009   6:37:40 PM

I really like this list. I've sent it to just about everybody I know that has an ipod. I'm constantly looking for good workout music that my husband and I will both like. - 1/28/2009   8:42:00 AM

I get an adrenaline rush listening to Rage Against the Machine and STP. - 1/27/2009   3:37:31 PM

For working out my ipod is set on Breaking Benjamin, Within Temptation, In Flames, Moonspell. Metal music does not work at all. I was trying but I gave up quickly :( - 1/27/2009   12:36:37 PM

I like the song from Biggest Loser - Proud, by Heather Small - 1/27/2009   12:30:24 PM

Some other favorites from 2008 - "So What" by Pink, and "Dangerous" by Akon.
Also, I love to listen to "One Step at a Time" by Jordin Sparks while I'm doing arm weights each morning. I do listen to Disturbia by Rhianna as well while I'm doing cardio. - 1/27/2009   12:25:12 PM

I love Get Ready by the Temptations and Smokin' by Boston - 1/27/2009   12:11:28 PM

Anything Foo (Fighters). The pace is extreme and helps me when I'm doing speed workouts on the treadmill or on the trail. - 1/27/2009   11:30:09 AM

I love the Coldplay song... i am actually looking for new songs to perk up my workout. - 1/27/2009   8:55:18 AM

Thanks :) - 1/27/2009   12:49:32 AM

Reggaeton seriously gets me wanting to move -- anything that makes me want to dance and generally if it talks about sexy women. I want to be one of those!!! :) - 1/26/2009   3:54:29 PM

rickrolled... that was too funny - 1/26/2009   12:43:23 AM

A lot of what I listen to is on 'the list' coldplay, justin timberlake, Fall Out Boy...but my absolute favorite find is a ~6 minute 'remix' of Depeche Mode's 'Personal Jesus'. It lasts and lasts and has the perfect beat.! - 1/25/2009   1:28:28 PM

I can't believe I just got rick-rolled by SparkPeople.

- 1/25/2009   1:15:10 PM

I agree with CAMERON419. A bit of heavy metal or rock is great to work out to. My boyfriend loves Guns & Roses so we always have them on when we're working out :-D - 1/25/2009   1:09:57 PM

Who needs an ipod when you can sing all your favorites as you walk - 1/25/2009   12:07:55 PM

I have a playlist on my ipod of over 400 workout songs and they tend to be a mix of pop, classic rock, newer rock and fast fun songs from musicals.

Of new songs, "Let It Rock" it a great one! - 1/25/2009   11:47:18 AM

Great Blog! I'll be returning to it often. :-) Thank you everyone for all your suggestions.
- 1/25/2009   8:46:49 AM

Beautiful Day by U2 - 1/25/2009   7:39:38 AM

LOVE this blog will be returning to it often.

I love " Pocket full of Sunshine" . My son bought me an IPOD for Christmas ( He was tired of seeing me trying to drag a very large very old CD player around ). The first song I bought was Pocketfull of Sunshine. - 1/25/2009   5:59:26 AM

I love southern gospel...Looking For the Lights of That City is my favorite for spinning. As for country I really like Free by Faith Hill and Fever by Garth Brooks. - 1/25/2009   1:20:04 AM

I tend to listen to Christian music, but sometimes I play a country album "If You're Going Through Hell by Rodney Atkins - 1/25/2009   12:22:26 AM

Not too impressed. Where's some techno or club music or heavy metal to get me moving?! - 1/24/2009   9:30:58 PM
