Top Ten Songs to Exercise To

When I exercise, I turn on the same playlist I use when I dance (which is also exercise, just a more bootylicious form of it!), so this is not only my top ten songs to exercise to, but my top ten songs to dance to.

1. Bailamos- Enrique Iglesias

I have fancied Señor Iglesias since I was like… ten. So there is nothing more beautiful and encouraging than his sweet voice. Como te quiero, Enrique, como te quiero.

2. Hot N’ Cold- Katy Perry

My mama insists that this is the best song ever when going up-hill on a walk. The only steep hill I usually ever go up is the street I live on, but it sure does get me super jazzed when it comes on and I’m tired!

3. Hips Don’t Lie- Shakira

Pffft, of course you have to dance to this, it makes you shake those hips. I also maybe shake them a little when I’m out walking, I just can’t help it. :D

4. Love Don’t Cost a Thing- Jennifer Lopez

There’s just something about the beat that makes me want to strut down the street instead of simply walking/jogging like a normal person. It’s super fun, I swear.

5. TiK ToK- Ke$ha

I don’t care what anybody says, I fucking love this song and sometimes I have to press the back button and listen to it again because it’s just that good.

6. Your Love is My Drug- Ke$ha

This one also gets me strutting like a dork and walking faster than I normally do and is super good for pumping the blood back up when I’m getting a little fatigued.

7. Dímelo- Enrique Iglesias

Enriqueeeeeeeeee. I’m going to pretend I have dignity and insist this is just good to walk to because of the beat.

8. Bad Romance- Lady Gaga

I love Lady Gaga. She’s so fucking grand and I always want to just break out dancing in the middle of the sidewalk when I’m walking to this song.

9. Disease- Matchbox Twenty

I like to listen to this when I’m aaaalmost home to get all super jazzed again. It works somehow.

10. The Cup of Life- Ricky Martin

GO GO GO! is the best thing to hear when exercising. ‘Nough said.

I would insist that I only listen to these songs for the good beats and that my taste in music is soooo much better, but it’s not. I love this shit all the time. Haters gonna hate. Anyway, like I said before, I also love dancing to these songs. I think club music and hip hop and latin beats are the best for exercising because they’re so upbeat and it’s easy to fall into a quicker pace when that’s the beat playing in your ear. Sometimes I walk to slower songs or songs that I just like listening to, but they’re just not as good for getting the blood flowing as these ones.
