Aggressive = energetic, ready to perform well physically. A faster bpm is better for running/cardio, a slower bpm to match the rhythm of lifting the weight so you're expending power/energy with the beat; music with gritty guitar riffs are even better as they mimic grinding out the rep. I can't imagine doing any kind of exercise while listening to a lullaby. God designed our bodies to respond in different ways to different kinds of music. I just utilize the music to improve performance. But, as an example, Tool's "Stinkfist" would be great music for weightlifting, but the lyrics are beyond terrible so I'll never use it and hope I never hear it again.
