As I’m typing this, I’m hearing Quiet Riot sing “Cum On Feel The Noize.” It seems like a perfect workout song.

I’m a fan of the 80’s music. Maybe I’m showing my age.

  Tim,
  
  Hello. Cum On Feel The Noize was huge in the early 80’s…it was also pretty big in the early 70’s when Slade originally recorded it. Once a good song is recorded it’s always a good song. I remember really enjoying this song as well (in the 80’s…just to clarifiy).

I like Walking on Sunshine and Walk of Life for the treadmill among other songs.

  Rob,
  
  Those are great songs as well. I just remembered that I saw the film, “Vision Quest” on cable the other night…I forgot about the scene where Matthew Modine’s charcter gets pumped up to wrestle his opponent Shute to the sounds of, “Lunatic Fringe” by Red Rider. I just realized I don’t have this on my iPod. I’m going to get this on there before my next kettlebell workout.

I don’t use my Ipod. It is my daughter’s old one. It would take me a long time to pick top seven songs. I like new music, old music, really old music, soft rock, punk rock, heavy metal, disco….. Currently, my daughter and I like to chair dance in the car to Lady Gaga!

Music is an individual choice. What’s important is to find songs that motivate and inspire you.

  Steve,
  
  That is so true…the bigger part is that people need to take action to find songs that motivate and inspire them. Here’s hoping that more people will take action.

Love music, but rarely listen to it…. When I’m not teaching I appreciate the peace and quiet…

But, do you mind my asking… I’ve been read in the literature that music, especially barque music, is good to set the stage for when the students enter the classroom to help them relax and focus…

what about the songs you noted in your post…. would they be good for this purpose?

  Eileen,
  
  Hello. I have also heard that baroque music is very beneficial in the learning process. I seem to remember reading a study some years back that said you should use the baroque music while studying in 25 minute intervals and then take a 5 – 10 minute break and then start over. Please let me know if you decide to expirment with this and tell me what kind of results you notice.
  
  The songs from my post above would be good for getting your students pumped up to run a marathon…probably not too good for studying.

I either listen to audiobooks or work out in silence… gives me time to think clearly with the increase of oxygen going to my brain!

  Mark,
  
  I agree…sometimes silence is best. I find that I always want silence when I’m doing Hot Yoga.

Hi Dr Wendy,

And I think you can use an Amazon affiliate link to monetize what you recommend or have on your personal play list….

Your list is great. I have a couple of those songs in my top 7 too – Eminem, Evanescence, Ozzy. My favorite workout songs are upbeat. I have a couple of Britney Spears (which I would normally not listen too, but they get my hips groovin’), I also have “Walking on Sunshine” by Katrina and the Waves. I cannot help but move whenever I hear Shakira. “Anthem” by Superchick always makes me remember how girls can be tough too.
Otherwise, it is pretty much hard rock, with a random country song thrown in. I will have to think about this further… now you have my brain going. I may have to pop those songs in and workout!

I have been reading your blog for the last couple of hours, and it all has been very informative and well written.

Music is a big motivator & attitude adjustment tool for me.

I have different mixes for different work out routines.

But to use one example: For hitting the heavy weights hard I listen to these songs to keep the adrenaline pumping & my brain locked in on attacking the weights

1. Judas Priest – Heavy Metal

2. White Zombie – More Human Than Human

3. Stone Temple Pilots – Sex Type Thing

4. Ozzy Osbourne – Flying High Again

5. Motley Crue – Wild Side

6. Kiss – War Machine

I have my own playlist as well and it surely did help me a lot when i am doing my work out. It help me focus on what I am doing and it did give my work out great results. Hope that it will do the same thing with other people.
