I smiled my way through this piece--I can't BEGIN to work out without music. Some of the songs made me laugh aloud. Okay, I know this is considered "old" music, but when I want to make sure I stay with my workout, I pop in Janet Jackson's "Control" DVD. Her inspirational words about being in control in the beginning get you pumped; every time you want to quit, another song with a different but great beat comes on ("Nasty," "What Have You Done for Me Lately?", "Pleasure Principle," etc.). I can't stop. Before I know it, I've worked out far longer than I intended and truly enjoyed it!

I love listening to upbeat music while I work out, but I don't recognize a lot of the songs listed. But that means I'm way behind when it comes ot music and I'll have to check out some of these recommendations!!

Love this article, music is such a good motivator! That´s why I created a workout music website - musictosweatto where I post a new workout song every day. Check it out! It´s on Facebook and Twitter as well :)
