Let us admit, working out isn’t as easy and cool as it sounds. And those fitness apparel ads with celebrities adorning just the right amount of tan and sweat don’t help us in kick-starting our fitness regimes either. Though, one element that has been tried and tested over time by some of the greatest fitness enthusiasts and has proven to work for the cause is a good workout playlist. Not an eardrum-blasting one that is so loud you can’t hear the horns, but just the kind that gets you going. For the heads-up, there is nothing as a perfect workout playlist anywhere. You can take your own pick and listen to whatever gets you in the groove for a good session in the gym or just a simple run in the neighbourhood park. Some people prefer metal tracks to pump-up, whereas a lot of people get just the right kick from listening to anything from relaxing music to symphony tunes too. So the next time you feel even a tad bit less motivated to break into a good sweat, just take out some time to design your personal workout playlist before putting those running shoes on!
We list down the latest workout playlist that should be on your players that will surely get you going:
Avicii, “Broken Arrows”: The producer’s latest single starts soft, which will ease you into your workout, before exploding into a storm of warm synths on the breakdown. Start with this song, and there’s no stopping you.
Nick Jonas, “Levels”: Flip Jonas’ dirty metaphor for “Levels” into pushing yourself to the next level of fitness.
Walk the Moon, “Shut Up and Dance”: Fun tip: Smiling during a workout can actually reduce a lot of the fatigue and pain you’re feeling while exercising.
Missy Elliott, “WTF (Where They From)”: Missy’s comeback track is an upbeat slice of quirky hip-hop that’s bound to get you moving, whether that’s at a dance class or while lifting weights.
