So tell me, what's in your MP3 player/discman/walkman/decks/ghetto blaster/phonograph when you're burning the calories?
I entered this thread in the Montreal Forums a while back (hey TOTAs, take a peek over there every now and then) and got some interesting feedback:
Preach - Relic Mix Compilation (popular choice amongst MTLTAs)
Deep Dish Essential Mix live at Creamfields
Ferry Corsten Live @ Aria, April 15th 2005
I also listen to the following while I pumpeth de iron - I'm actually more of a househead but I gots to listen to techno & trance for the gym:
Satoshi Tomiie - Global DJ Broadcast WMC 03-08-2004
Paul Oakenfold - Live @ Gatecrasher (this will get you jacked)
Tiesto - Live at Club Matrix NYE 2003
Steve Lawler & Erick Morillo - live @ PACHA 2004 (five-hour set, house)
Above And Beyond - Trance Around The World 101 02-21-2006

'Sounds like my work gym, the reason I bought an MP3. I work for the federal gov't so more than half the ppl are over 40 and sweat it to Gino Vanelli et al. |

nothing at all.
I like hitting the gym when there's no one else there...or only a couple of people.
it's my meditative/introspective time...very relaxing and rejuvinating...one of the few times when music actually annoys me. |

Lately it's been Saeed Younan, Joe Drust, and John Do, but I usually rotate new ones in, because this is my time for listening to all of the new stuff.
A 1.5-2 hour workout 4-5 days/week allows me about 7 hours to get these damn things into my ears. |

yeah, that sometimes works for me too but in an empty gym with no music. Ironically, music also allows for introspection, meditative for some as well. |

true...
maybe it's my backlash for the awful Galaxy radio they played at my old gym...I must have heard f**king "Satisfaction" and "Shiny Disco Balls" every goddamn time I was there. I quickly grew to hate both songs :D
trance while doing cardio is good...I found myself practically dancing on the eliptical trainer or treadmill more than once, lol...but now I just lift weights and prefer quiet. |

At the moment, it's Fergie's Essential Mix from Global Gathering 2005, or a James Zabiela Essential or Kiss100 mix.
When I'm in the rock mood, various Tool songs. |
