Day 44 - Mp3 players ... Best training apartner

Team mighty mouse... For those of you fighting to push through the workouts... Music, that is to say the right music, has scientifically been proven to help the body with physical exertion, and listening to the same music that you listen to during a workout is suppose to raise your matabolism. At least that's what I've read somewhere...

Anyway it helps with my workouts... As Marcus will contest to I'm pretty antisocial when training in the gym (don't talk much outside the gym either). I get in put the head phones on blast the music (cuz music in most gyms tends to be the wrong tempo to get you training at the appropriate heart rate. A gym Marcus an I use to train at in TKy... Use to have stuff like Jewel and Celine Dion playing. I'll just say ...not the right tempo for a gym) to and "blast" through the workout...

Ranting on gym music aside, thought I'd kick off some trading of mp3 player song lists for working out (sorry I'm a bit of an alternative rock/metal head, but the idea is to have up tempo music to help keep the heart rate up... Along side the short 20sec rests between sets that Patrick has implemented):

training list (on shuffle):
Marilyn Manson - if I was your vampire
The Offspring - gone away
The Offspring - genocide
The Offspring - not the one
Iron Maiden - can I play with madness
The Cult - she sells sanctuary
The Cult - Heart and Soul
The Black Crowes - kickin' my heart around
Iron Maiden - flash of the blade
The Black Crowes - hard to handle
The Black Crowes - go faster
Iron maiden - sea of madness
Iron maiden - Revelations...

I tone it done for stretching at the end of the workout...just a bit...

Please send through any play lists you use... Someone else will have similar tastes in music.

Now anyone have ideas on how to get through these mundain egg and apple dinners?

  1. Best way to get through the egg and apple dinners... watch TV and dont pay attention to what you are eating! IN NYC and not easy. Training through but makes for a very late night!
