Hey guys,

Im a 35 yo thats just starting to try to get fitter and stronger. I live in Australia (dont hold that against me) lol.

Im looking for some really good music that will get me MOTIVATED whiulst im either doing weights or Cardio.

Ive been pretty big since i had my tounsils out at about 6 and i have grown since then. My diet sucks as theer was plenty of long night shifts for 10 years and im have plenty of strength but no real stamina and i want to get rid of my KEG.(NOt spare tire).

I find that i get really hammering and push my self with good music that gets me goin.

So was wondering what keeps you al motivated whilst doing your workouts.

Rocky.

I like the song “Terminator” from Sevendust, and “Determined” from Mudvayne. Warning though, make sure you only listen to those songs while at the gym. It may cause you to harm civilians if used anywhere else.

Actually he said Motivating. But c’mon, what’s depressing about Social Distortion? :slight_smile:

Arch Enemy - nemesis.

#12

Rage Against the Machine. Driving jagged guitar, great rhythm, and practically the best songwriting of the 90s. Here are some lyrics, and realize that they are seamless in the songs - they don’t bog down the songs just because of their politically charged content, in fact they are incredibly energetic. I think it doesn’t get better than rage for pump-up music. You get motivated and pumped but you actually get pissed off because they’re so right about inequality, etc!

What we don’t know keeps the contracts alive and movin’. They don’t burn the books they just remove 'em.

Weapons not food, not homes, not shoes, not need, just feed the war cannibal animal, I walk the corner to the cemetery that used to be the library.

Stroll through the shanties and the cities remain. Same bodies buried hungry but with different last names. Pick a point on the globe, yes the picture?s the same.

A bank, a church, a myth, a hearse, a mall, a loan, a child dead at birth. A white hooded judge and a syringe and a vein. A field full of slaves some corn and some debt. There?s a ditch full of bodies, the check for the rent. A mass without roofs, a prison, a jail.

AC/DC, Back in Black

The last gym I attended had a group of “Rocky” fans (the trainers), so I have had my fill of Eye of the Tiger up to my eyeballs.
