iPod - it’s what’s for exercise

August 12th, 2006 Rachel

It’s amazing how much better a run or hour on the elliptical trainer goes when I’m connected to those little earbuds. The rhythm is there for me, no need to worry about the distractions of the television slowing down my pace, heartrate and (obviously) caloric burn.

Here’s my favorite cardio tunes right now:

I Wanna Be Sedated - Ramones
Tear You Apart - She Wants Revenge
This Fffire - Franz Ferdinand
The Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Munich - Editors
Neighborhood 3 - Power Out - Arcade Fire
Jagger ‘67 - Infadels
Raoul - The Automatic
The Clown - Elefant
Tomorrow Starts Today - Mobile
Mr. Brightside - The Killers
Dare - Gorillaz
Banquet - Bloc Party
I Predict A Riot - Kaiser Chiefs
I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor - Arctic Monkeys
I Believe In a Thing Called Love - The Darkness
Last of the Great - Boy Kill Boy

Now I’ve got another reason to remember to keep my iPod charged…here’s a great source for some videos going through some basic weight training - I’ve got all the free weight exercises loaded up, can’t wait to give it a go tomorrow.
