Favourite "Cheesy" Exercise Songs?
Hey All!
I was thinking that it would be fun to post our favourite "inspirational/cheesy" workout songs. You know, the ones that just pump you up and get you going! I guess they don't have to be "cheesy" necessarily, but there are definitely some songs that I only enjoy when I'm running or working out. Let's share and get a playlist going!
My first contribution: "Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield
Cheesy yet oh so motivating lyric: " "Reaching for something in the distance, so close you can almost taste it, release your inhibitions"... I ran a little bit faster today during this song!! ;)
Let's groove,
Lisa :)

Mine is Taylor Swifts - You Belong With Me...It's just so upbeat. Very corny, very youthful, but it's fun!
I like yours too.

Oooh embarrassment time.... my cheesiest songs would probably be like "Clear" by Kardinal Offishall or Pitbull "I Know You Want Me". I also have song Lady Gaga and krump music on my playlist - while I pride myself on my killer taste in music, my workout songs are my dirty little secret...

Not anymore, Frances! ;D Haha!
My workout songs are typically dance or electro mixes/remixes. Yesterday I suffered halfway through a cover of Cindy Laupers "Girls just want to have fun" and was mid-pushup when I had to stop and change it. Garrrgh! Otherwise, I like K-Pop and J-Rock. <3

I'm with ya, Frances! I am proud of my music taste too, but everything just goes out the window on my workout shuffle! "Just Dance" by Lady Gaga is soo pumping for midrun. :)

I love my workout music to be fast and furious! From old school Sabath to my faves; Rage Against the Machine, Tool, White Zombie... I'll even throw in some Rap; Jay Z or FloRida for the longer walks/rides.
But as long as we're on the topic of 'cheesy' and lettin skeletons out, I got a doooozy for ya! Since I'm trainning like a bodybuilder, once a week I critique myself in front of a mirror to analize progress and decide on the future of my workouts. I do some flexing and poses like I was at a show to help determine which muscle groups need extra attention... and the song I stumbled across in my music library was 'I'm Too Sexy' by Right Says Fred.
"I'm a model you know what I mean! and I do my little turn on the catwalk, Ya on the catwalk"...LMAO!
Hope you guys get a chuckle out of that...I certainly did :)

I love reading this post, I am always looking for more good workout songs! That being said, I will admit to many Lady Gaga songs, especially "Just Dance" and "Starstruck," Matchbox 20's "Disease", and Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground"
