Music make you lose control

I dont know about you guys but for me music is the best workout partner there is. I need music at the gym soo badly that I have skipped entire workouts because I had forgotten my ipod at home (one could argue that I was just looking for an excuse to be lazy and not workout, but that's besides the point...asshole).

My musical choices vary greatly as well...like if I don't want anyone to talk to me that day I'll listen to Rammstien at an obnoxiously loud volume so everyone around me will think I'm batshit insane and not to be messed with. On more upbeat days I'll listen techno...actually on every day besides antisocial days I'll listen to techno...yeah, I love techno. Techno keeps a steady yet fast beat which I find is perfect for cardio and even weight training.

I once tried listening to Tori Amos while on the tredmill...after my 15 minutes were up I left the tredmill crying and the person who was next in line for the machine opted not to use the tredmill of despair and went on the stairmaster instead...GOOD ON YOU!

Working out is a great feeling and the music you listen to should only amplify those positive feelings. So be picky about what you throw on your workout play list...you may love Sinead O'connor while sitting on your computer, taking the metro or bus or whatever, but will you still like her while running on a tredmill or lifting weights? THINK ABOUT IT PEOPLE!

So, happy training!
