Besides the obvious Genesis by Justice and Sleep now in the Fire by Rage Against the Machine what other songs should play during my 20 minute ftp test tomorrow?
send the pain below-chevelle
.
Its too late-Jes (First State Remix)
.
Funny you ask, I put up an FB post yesterday noting my pleasure with my testing playlist. I tend to do the hard rock/metal thing on the trainer and started my test with Green Day’s Welcome to Paradise, had Metallica Creeping Death in the middle and finished it out with Nirvana Drain You.
Guns and Roses.
I especially like:
Night Train
You Could be Mine
Mr. Brownstone
Ivor the Tiger 
.
zombie- (the cranberries)
rock’n’roll train-(ac/dc)
Cold-(amy tori & vinss-t)
Hells Bells-(ac/dc)
My Hero-(foo Fighters)
lose Yourself-(Eminem)
Turbulence- (Steve Aoki &…)
Adagio for springs- (tiesto)
Elements of life-(tiesto)
E.T-(Katy Perry)
It’s My Life-(Bon Jovi)
.
Party Rock Anthem…on repeat
.
Lol no. LMFAO has one good song, it’s called yes. And even then I can’t figure out why it’s good. It’s like a lack of musical talent that makes them good, it makes sense if you don’t think about it.

katy perry? dude.
Any song by Brittany…
I was also thinking 90s throwback. But more of the outkast version.
Disposable Heroes - Metallica
Inner Vision - System of a Down
Burn - Nine Inch Nails
I Can’t Hide - Pantera (pretty much anything from their Vulgar Display of Power album (and Far Beyond Driven))
In fact just put in Pantera’s Far Beyond Driven and be done with it. You’ll jam the pedals through the floor and rip the bars off your bike. Even has a good cool down song at the end.
That should get you through.
I’m not a fan of hip hop but…
Never Enough - Eminem
And sometimes this…
Soul Power (long version) - James Brown
Once you try it you will never go back
.
Juke Joint Jezebel (KMFDM)
For Whom the Bell Tolls (Metallica - preferably the version with SF Symphony Orchestra)
Du Hast (Ramstein)
Head Like a Hole (Nine Inch Nails)
Blue Monday (Orgy)
I use the heavy stuff to get the blood flowing.
If you are into “techno” / Electronic Dance Music (I guess they call it EDM now).
These are my 2 favorites
-Turbulence by Laid Back Luck w/Lil John
-Take over Control - Afrojack
These are also pretty good.
-What a Feeling - Alex Gaudino
-Turn on the Music - Roger Sanchez
These are some solid suggestions man. After the first nine inch nails song I wasn’t sure I was going to like them much. Hand that Feeds is good, but closer is not.
some of my favorites for hard workouts:
it’s my life - bon jovi
have a nice day - bon jovi
runaway - bon jovi
animal - def leppard
not afraid - eminem
heart turns to stone - foreigner
tooth and nail - foreigner
stronger - kayne west
let it rock - kevin rudolf & lil wayne
kickstart my heart - motley crue
heart of a champion - nelly
rock you like a hurricane - scorpions
edit: as you can probably tell, i’m not a big fan of really hard rock / metal / angry-sounding stuff. not much hip hop / rap either. a lot of people i’ve trained with seem to like that for hard workouts but it really doesn’t work for me.
I like to start with techno and then end with rock/metal.
I’ll suggest:
- Headclobber / John Tesh (there is a great TTT video on Youtube, check it out for inspiration)
- Breda 8pm - Tiesto
- Ancient History - Tiesto (see the video of Pharmstrong on Youtube set to this - even if you think he is Giant Douche, as I do, it is still very inspirational)
- Get Ready to Bounce - Brooklyn Bounce
- This is Acid - Voodoo & Serrano
- Push the Tempo - FatBoy Slim
- Killing in the Name of - Rage Against the Machine
- Creeping Death - Metallica
- Orion - Metallica
i have a spare ipod shuffle that’s loaded with my “tempo mix.” it’s for tempo runs and hard sessions on the trainer.
i like some rise against, skillet, foo fighters, jimmy eat world(i don’t know why, i just do), a song by volbeat called fallen. breaking benjamin’s blow me away. i also tend to love spoon’s the underdog. i do like some angry eminem.
