What are your favorite songs for the gym and cardio?

I'm always on the lookout for more tracks to add to my gym mix. Here are a few from mine that I think work well, with YouTube links. This is rock-heavy; I do love hip-hop and R&B in my gym mix, but everything I have there is really well known.

    West Coast by FIDLAR. It's a pretty fast paced song that also is a good way to stick a middle finger up to the rest of the world musically. Also, you have a cool taste in music, thanks for showing...

    I find that most of Shinedown's songs are surprisingly good for cardio, maintaining a very quick-but-not-too-fast tempo when I'm running. I'm also partial to Demetori if I need something...

    I find that most of Shinedown's songs are surprisingly good for cardio, maintaining a very quick-but-not-too-fast tempo when I'm running. I'm also partial to Demetori if I need something instrumental. I'll also almost always end a running session with Get Out by Dance with the Dead.

      Great call. I already have "Diamond Eyes" on my playlist. I'll give them more of a look, as well as the other ones you mentioned. Thanks!
