No matter what the research says, I find that listening to music while I walk (particularly on the treadmill) makes a workout more enjoyable and seems to help the time pass more quickly. I choose upbeat contemporary christian music that motivates me to "finish the race" so to speak. The problem is I only have about 25 minutes of music on my exercise playlist. I need about one or two more songs to make a full 30 minute walk - which is usually all I can fit in most days of the week. Here's what I have already:
- Good Morning (Mandisa & Toby Mac)
- Brand New Day (Yancy)
- Me Without You (Toby Mac)
- God's Not Dead (Newsboys)
- Shine (Newsboys)
- The Motions (Matthew West)
- I Choose Jesus (Moriah Peters)
- Well Done (Moriah Peters)

ReplyDeleteDon't laugh but I LOVE the Kickin' It Old School cd by Go Fish. My favorite is I'll Fly Away. I started putting this cd on when I am cleaning. It helps me stay energized. =)
