    Default What do you listen too or watch when you workout?

    Hi, I recently was able to get myself a gym membership after 4 years of not being able to do much for myself (this gym has free childcare and didn't make me give them bank account info, yay) and my endurance is bad, like 3 minutes cardio and I can't. I used to be able to jog a mile comfortably...

    I was looking for ideas what others like watching or listening too while working out, particularly cardiovascular that helps you feel motivated?

    Check out Audible and Overdrive if you like audio books.

    Edit: Sorry, was tired when I posted this. I should probably elaborate. Audible is a great place to buy audiobooks for cheap. You can also get newspapers and magazines on there, but you do have to buy everything. Overdrive is one where you input a library card and you can rent e-books and audio books from your library for free. The more library cards you collect (get your local ones, then ask friends and families in other areas to get them for you) the better your selection. It's a great service and helps keep our libraries alive.

    I like some of the cardio playlists on Spotify. Or if there are TVs on the machines I'll tune into a favorite show and just push through til the end of it.

    I usually just make playlists on itunes to listen to...its mostly upbeat hip hop and latin music. I usually listen to audio books during long, easy paced runs

    I like rap when I'm working out and wanting to really get into the exercises. Right now my "Squat playlist" is mostly Jeezy and some other rappers lol. Then some random songs like "Patron Tequila" by Paradiso girls cause it's fast paced. Idk it's just want gets me super motivated. Rap + a pre workout = bomb workout!

    I use an app called Musi where you can just search youtube for songs and add them to playlists.

    Lately, skinny puppy or deadmau5. My musical taste is kind of all over the place. But I look for a solid beat and often pick the kind of music I dance on stage to while I visualize myself looking tight and hot in a thong in front of an audience. That's pretty motivating for me.

    I use Pandora and create different radios of artists I like a lot so depending on my mood when I'm about to work out, I can easily choose between them.

    Songs like these for some reason keep me motivated to continue working out lol. Just to give ya an idea I suppose
