I used to despise working out without music, but when I did a year of cross-country last school year, I learned to do without.
Now that I dropped CX and lift weights now, I prefer to not have music. Running for 70-80 minutes by yourself with no sound but the wind has its benefits when you stop doing it. You don’t need any outlet but your own mind.
asides from amping you up it has the benefit of shouting out the people that talk loudly and laugh loudly even if they are serious lifters when its time for your set, although i belong to a serious gym many of the older guys talk loud and frequently about their lives which is not what i want when im lifting,
but i am a big fan of
the ghost inside pre lifting as well as virtuoso and blood for blod there intros where they just shout here we go really get u ready for pre lift
droid, emmure, it dies today and stick to your guns are probably my most frequented for while lifting o and devil driver just picked up their new cd today its pretty great :)also check out war froma harlots mouth
Recently i found the band Nonpoint. Ive never heard of them before so idk how popular they are, theyre a metal/rock band. Their songs get me pumped and IMO are perfect for working out. Some of their songs are “take me to the pain” “endure” “bullet with a name” “Broken bones”
For lifting, Slayer, Sepultura, Clawfinger, sometimes Amon Amarth, Rammstein, Disturbed, Godsmack. For cardio, I strictly use Hammerfall, Sabaton and other “faster” music. Oh, and of course Hell’s March.
