Default How long do you worship at the temple of evil?

Today I woke up and went to worship at the temple of evil or to fit people that place that is commonly referred to as the gym.

I managed 35 minutes all in before feeling the urge to vomit on my trainers.

Added to that the fact that I had selected shuffle on my i-pod so in between insomnia and other great running tracks playing I also had wham's last christmas and patti labelle's on my own (CRINGE and not very appropriate!)

Any suggestions for good workout music to stick on the iPod????

Too Many DJs http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/As_Hear..._Soulwax_Pt._2

or

Chemical Brothers "Exit Planet Dust"

or

Daft Punk "Homework"

nothing else quite hits the mark....

(PS never shuffle.... unless your shuffling....)

Starz Angelz - like auto says, don't shuffle, let them do it.

Do what ever works for you in the gym - don't forget the weights, that is really satisfying.

I hum Grenadier Guard marches while walking fast...

I don't do gyms but prefer marches and the like when exercising. That and sea shanties - which is why no gym will have me probably. I think the pipe was also off putting.

I watch an episode of House, or whatever TV series I'm on at the time on my iPad. Makes the time go so much quicker than listening to music.

(Obv this is something you can only do while on the treadmill).
