Music selection for running on a treadmill? - Chase - 01-27-2011

If you're looking for game music that's fast like that try any of the F-Zero games.

Oh and it's more driving music for me but anything by Rise Against is great for that sort of thing.

The Prodigy is ok, I'll look into it.

A bit too slow and 'charming' for my running taste.

' Wrote:Here's a suggestion for running. Don't pay the gym for it. Really. You've got miles of road, pathway and pavement you can run on.

As for music to run with. What type of music are you into?
My local area consists of a golf course, fat chaves, many hill (though helpful) and judgemental buggers). The gym is a less extreme of my village.

' Wrote:I find electronic music and its derivatives particularly suitable for running while rock is more inspiring with strenuous exercises such as weight lifting.
Rock is DEFINITELY for lifting, though I've not done it in ages, as in years.

' Wrote:Johnny I hardly knew ya, great song. Make me want to run, dunno why. Plus I usually listen to it when late for school. xD Hopefully it suits your taste.
Not a bad song, though I can't run to it.

F-Zero is very faced paced, I need to look for my mates collection again. He bought a lot of soundtracks, though I know Youtube2Mp3 exists, I only use when I have to.

this works?

ps when running i'd suggest you make a playlist of tunes with similar speed. otherwise you might end up making sudden dashes and rest just fast-walking or vice versa, if you know what i mean.

Cliche but still effective:P Mainly for strength workouts I'd say though.

Sorry, I'd rather take advantage of Hellenistic innovation than run outdoors.

With a gym you've got showers, sauna, etc at your disposal, as well as a huge variety of exercise equipment. Not to mention access to personal trainers and such.

A gym like 20 minutes away does it, at a MUCH higher price.
