What music gets you pumping? What do you listen to on a run, or when you warm up or when your struggling to lift those last few reps? Post some song suggestions please!!! I've got an MP3 player and I'm just dying to fill it with music that'll get me going!

For example: the Blade Techno Remix (please don't ask me who recorded it) really helps me to get into my stride when I'm jogging or on a stationary cycle, so does a lot of Fat Boy Slim's music.

Watch Me Shine by Joanna Pacitti. It is the ultimate girl power song, in my opinion. As soon as it comes on my iPod I feel a huge burst of energy.

Hey Annette,

I occasionally post song lists in my blog - I'm a spinning instructor so I'm always looking for songs to get people going (http://sarahtriadventure.blogspot.com).

Here were my lists from the last two:

1) Stronger - Kanye West

2) Harder Better Faster Stronger (Alive 2007 Tour)- Daft Punk (the song that Kanye sampled for Stronger) - LOVE THS!

3) What Is Love (Reloaded) - Haddaway (thank you, GREG!)

4) September - Earth, Wind and Fire

5) Take Me To the Clouds Above - LMC vs. U2

6) Now You're Gone (DJ Alex Extended Mix) - Basshunter

7) Reach up for the Sunrise (Jason Nevins Mix) - Duran Duran

8) Spin me Round (DJ Ajax remix) - Dead or Alive

9) Sweet Escape - Gwen Stefani

10) Acoustic Motorbike - Luka Bloom (love this song, ESPECIALLY FOR CYCLING! Pedal on...)

11) What a Feeling - Peter Luts & Dominico

12) Girl - Beck

13) The Distance - Cake (I couldn't believe how many people made their own videos to this song...this one was a tribute to Speed Racer...ha!)

14) Tom's Diner - Suzanne Vega

15) It's Raining Men - Weather Girls (this song literally cracks me up every time...Hallelujah!)

1. Kung Fu Fighting (Paralyzer Disco Remix) - Carl Douglas - 3:36 (it's the best of all the remixes - GOT TO HAVE THIS PARTICULAR MIX, in my opinion) **And I played this in spinning yesterday and one guy says "IS THIS KUNG FU FIGHTING?!?!" Then they cracked up...

2. World, Hold On - Bob Sinclair & Steve Edwards - 6:38

3. Take On Me - a-Ha - 3:49

4. Look On The Floor (Solasso Remix) - Bananarama - 6:43

5. The Bomb! - Bucketheads - 3:23

6. Feel Alive - Benassi Bros. featuring Naan - 4:48 (I LOVE this song...just gets me going at the beginning of a workout)

7. Jerk It Out (Jason Nevins Extended Remix) - Caesars - 5:50

8. Rhythm Is A Dancer (CJ Stone Club ReMix) - Snap! - 7:46

9. Murder On The Dancefloor - Sophie Ellis Bextor - 3:55

10. And to take you back...Beautiful Life - Ace of Base - 3:41
