i work out (occasionally-ish) and always find it goes better when i have some music to help me along. rather fast paced mix here in the beginning, if i slow down at all ill stop completely doing cardio... while weight training, i prefer catchy songs i can focus on, instead of the burn.

tracklist

1 Mogwai : Superheroes of BMX
this is the stretching track. steady tempo & "breathing" synth help control breath and loosen up those muscles. builds to an intensity, preparing me for the workout ahead.

8 ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead : The Best

the last minute of this song with the crying woman is the tranisition from cardio to the weight machines.
