I managed a 20 minute walk today but my music was sadly lacking....my mp3 player is loaded with "sleepy" music that my son put together when I had bad insomnia! So I need some upbeat music!!

Where's the best place to download music? Not looking for "free"; more looking for easy.

i got most of my stuff off a website called 'safeshare' that seems to be dismantled now. probably itunes is your best bet for easy. i think it's one dollar per song. i know my kids and their friends use a sight called 'limewire' all the time but i haven't tried it. good luck!

I listen to a lot of techno music while working out. The beat helps me keep a workout beat. I, uh, also listen to a lot of japanese rock and pop music for that extra go as well.

I have found that watching tv shows or movies helps me out as well. Keeps me concentrated on working out longer and harder. I like to make it a game and try and do cardio for one episode length of whatever it is I'm watching without stopping. If it's a half hour show (like Family Guy) then I go for two episodes...but thats mainly cause Seth Macfarlane has a hot voice. :D

iduckie - have you eaten El Regio's grilled chicken? My SO picked some up in San Marcus cause it is my favorite grilled chicken ever [and I"ve had a lot of chicken!!] anyway, just wondering if there's a copycat recipe of their red salsa and/or the chicken floating around Austin.

limewire is awesome!!! i would use that if you're wanting easy, and most of it is FREE!

i listen to a lot of rap when i run.
i think the intensity/angriness helps me go.
three6mafia is good.
then i like m.i.a or lady sovereign

I listen to a lot of Fallout Bot or Something Corporate when im working out- the music usually has a REALLY fast beat to it- I love it!

Also Goldfrapp "Ooohh La La" And "beautiful" (latter is on the sex and the city previews on tv!) Love those songs for working out!

Ok I know you asked about workout music,but I have a secret thats even better than music...Its an audiobook! "Read" a good thriller and will have you fixated on what happens next! I usually do about an hour of cardio and the time just flies! try it...maybe it will work for you :D
