So, I have exhausted pretty much all the music in my eclectic library for my cardio workouts (literally, like 500-700 songs with upbeat tempos). I'm tired of so many of them, in the sense that they make my workouts feel just, eh. Bleh. Whatever.

Any suggestions on some great, upbeat music that isn't like, hokey, or worse yet...over-charged with dirty content? I seriously need to mix it up.

Try Flogging Molly!

The band that is, not flogging some girl named Molly just to get your heart rate up...

Christian ritual costs nothing and is worth nothing. True Christian religion costs all that we have and is worth everything.

Seriously, one of my fave bands. Seriously. I reserve these guys for weight lifting, as I sift them in with harder metal and metalcore stuff. I've seen them live several times and their vibe is completely stellar.

I'll mix in a couple songs from Drunken Lullabies and see where it gets me. Thanks!

Hahahahahaha! Throw some metal in there in the background and I could get down to that.

Absolutely. I use Wagner's stuff for floor exercise. (Am I starting to sound as anal-retentive about music as I really am? haha) I'll shoot him into the cardio mix and see if it revs any. Thanks!

Greetings:

Try the Psalms of David. Here is a link to one of my favorite albums:

Psalms of the Kingdom (CD)

Invigorate both soul and body!

Blessings,
