We all have that one favorite song that comes through our headphones and gets us AMPED UP to continue our workout. Particularly when a workout is strenuous, it’s common to have low motivation. Sometimes hearing a fast-paced tune is all we need to push through!
Whether it is a classic like Queen, or hardcore rap like DMX, it’s up to you to discover what music motivates you! Music may not always seem extremely important, but scientific research has proven its positive effects. A study done on subjects who were running on the treadmill determined that those who listened to faster music ran at quicker speeds and produced increased heart rates when compared to those running to slower/quieter music or no music at all. This may seem simple and obvious, but this research shows the importance of creating a workout playlist that can help increase your heart rate as well as your motivation. Using original artist music from Instructor Music, will motivate you and your class.
