Pimp My Playlist


by DJ Debbie

Anyone who knows me knows that I insist on high-energy music for my workouts.  I’m a techno addict (techno is really fast electronic music that most people do not love…yet).  Research does show that the faster the beat, the harder one will push during a workout. Can you imagine doing jumping lunges to Kenny G?!  I listen to music as much as possible and actually am somewhat eclectic; Christian, pop, classical, techno, alternative, hip hop, 80’s, rock.  My iPad will only store 1,034 of my songs so I don’t truly know how many songs I own.  I always have a playlist ready for my group workouts OR we rock out to Pandora.  The louder the better.

Speaking of Pandora, here are…

My favorite Pandora stations for workouts:

  • It Takes Two Radio
  • Mo Money Mo Problems Radio
  • Sexy and I Know It Radio
  • Electronic Cardio Radio
  • Alternative Endurance Training Radio
  • Dance Cardio Radio
  • Pop and Hip Hop Power Workout Radio
  • Pop Fitness Radio
  • Techno Radio
  • Club/Dance Radio
  • A Tribe Called Quest Radio
  • Tiesto Radio
  • California Love Radio
  • Mind Playing Tricks on Me Radio


Now, I’m about to blow your MIND with some fun new jams you do not have on your iPod.  At the bottom of this page is a “print” link so no need to take notes.  I hope you have some iTunes gift cards ready to redeem.  Here are 40 of my favorite tunes for squats, burpees, push-ups and more.
