Get PSYCHED!!!!!

Postby Doobie on Sun Dec 28, 2008 2:25 pm

So as some many know I am signing up the gym in January, and I wanted to know songs that will get me motivated and pumped. As of now I'm thinking stuff like Touch The Sky and Stronger by Kanye, I'm mostly into hip-hop but I'm trying to compose an awesome playlist.

D12 fight music will also work for me... Eminem's rabbit run also gets me excited for some reason. Lil wayne's I'm me and 3peat, also got money works... I they are all songs that'll get me amped. M.O.P ante up... I still want more suggestions.

Pump It Up by Joe Budden... I think that's what it's called. :P

Get Lil Jon & Eastside Boys on your play list :)

I love Jay Z so maybe you should look into that too. :P Dirt Off Your Shoulder :)

As for Kanye, New Workout Plan. (Y) But yeah, I don't usually listen to music in the gym on an ipod or watever because they usually play music there.

I usually listen to instrumentals. The soundtrack from Requiem From a Dream, The Rock anything Hans Zimmer usually. Requiem remixed from LOTR is also kickass. Paul Oakenfold Ready Steady Go, The Crystal Method Weapons of Mass Destruction...Uhm, anything Prodigy. Barbers Adagio for strings of Tiesto...

That's the kind of shit I listen to.

Sometimes I dont listen to anything and just self motivate myself in my head and drown everything out. It helps with focus and pushes you harder. No one can push you harder than yourself.

Since you're a little bitch when it comes to training, I'll leave you with a quote from Ali...if Ali can't motivate you, you're destined to be you forever.

I hated every minute of training, but I said, "Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion."

Jackal do you like E.S. Posthumous or Fight Club soundtrack? That's some good instrumental music.

Haven't heard E.S. Posthumous...

The Fight Club soundtrack I haven't heard in a while, I might give it a listen and let you know, I need some new music as it is. I know all the peaks of The Rock by now, something fresh on the treadmill would be a pleasant change.

Edit: Just youtubed ES and heard the Pompei song, that's the shit I'm talking about. Many thanks for that, I've got me some new music for the gym!

This will seriously remain an alltime favorite of mine though, you have enough time to rest...and enough time to sprint. It's perfect.

If you haven't heard Immediate Music, Two Steps From Hell, or X-Ray Dog, you should check them out.

Jay-Z is the shit but i find for working out the Linkin Park Remixes give me a better backbeat to work off (especially the dirt off your shoulder/lying away from you and 99 Problems/1 Step Closer)
I cant believe i forgot Nine Inch Nails in my first list. I pity myself :mrt:

I see where you're coming from as the beat is a lot faster in the Linkin Park/Jay Z remixes

The obnoxious people who go to my gym take over the radio and play 50 cent music at the loudest possible volume. Sometimes I wanna slap myself for being there, it drowns the noise out of my ipod. So basically a get psyched list is useless unless I want to listen to it on my way there.

You could try the warmup songs we used for our b-ball games:

Saliva-Click, Click Boom
Kevin Rudolf feat. Lil Wayne- Let It Rock
Baby Bash-Cyclone

Again, just suggestions. They worked to get me pumped up. Other than that i would choose maybe a hip-hop song, or something metal.

Whatever works.
