My Journey: What's on your playlist?

What's on your playlist?

Recently I've been a little unmotivated when it comes to the music I listen to while working out. I'm still working out, but I've been moving away from my workout mix playlist I created.

I like to listen to upbeat music while I do the cardio portion of my workout to keep me going just a little bit longer. But for weights, I can listen to anything. Slow pop songs, country songs, probably even classical although I haven't tired that yet.

I even find music that I listen to while cleaning the house is WAY different than the music I workout to. Isn't it funny how music affects us so much?

So what's on your playlist that gets you moving and grooving? I need some inspiration for some new songs!
