Turbo Trainer Playlist

bigal.

Looking to put together an all time best playlist to use whilst mulling away the hours on the trainer over the next few months.

Open to suggestions so dont be shy. What really gets you going on the trainer just when your ready to throw in the towel?????????

I will always love you by Whitney Houston / (Everything I do) I do it for you by Brian Adams medley for me.

Rousing stuff.

Hurt - Jonny Cash

F1-11Love Missile. Brilliant.

I had forgotten all about this song. There is obviously more than one person on this Forum with bad taste.

There will be loads of youngsters scartching their heads wondering what this song is.

Couple of serious ones that give you a 'top buzz' and a new injection of QuadPowertm-

Aerodynamik by Kraftwerk (MUST be the live one from Minimum Maximum due to the crowd cheering...)

Lost in Time by Eat Static

Remind by Orbital

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club are great for running / cycling.

Well, I mainly hammer along to CTS DVDs.

As for music, recently it's been movie soundtracks for me


Warmups: any gunfight music by Sergio Leone
Battle scene from Spartacus
Wheel of Pain + Anvil of Crom from Conan the Barbarian
Bits of the last Iron Man movie are good
Pirates of the Carribean fight scenes
bits of Lord of the Rings


Like the Johnny Cash suggestion...

An album that was recommended to me by Captain Fagor is called Black by Metallica.

I have to admit that although I am not a heavy metal fan it is ideal listening whilst inflicting big efforts on your limbs and lungs.

I have 4 Turbo playlists that I rotate, they're all too long for one session but shuffling them keeps up the variety!

Included are:
All the Hold Steady albums
The Long Blondes
Andrew WK (Party Hard, ultimate training tune)
Lil Wayne
Afghan Whigs
Springsteen
Rocket From The Crypt
Chemical Brothers
Ghostface
Art Brut
Wilco
Dillinger 4
Lupe Fiasco
Daft PUnk

and one playlist that is simply everything Mogwai have ever recorded.

Trance if working hard. Often the latest Listen In The Dark podcast

High-energy electronic music is really doing it for me at the moment.

Trance, Old Drum n Bass, Techno, etc... There's far too many to mention here, although i'd recommend you have some chilled-out stuff you can put on during the "recovery" periods, so that when you play something motivational during the hard efforts, the effect is increased. I tried playing loads of "go fast" tunes, but they did my head in after a bit, especially when I was trying to take it easy for 5 minutes.

I was on the rollers yesterday watching the Amstel Gold race, which - dare I say it - made the workout FUN. :shock:

I'd sprint at every breakaway, go hard on the hills, coast round the corners (almost actually leaned over at times :shock:) and even look over my shoulder for no apparent reason, when the breakaway started to get caught. :? With the help of this (and my 2 new fans), I ended up doing 2 hours HARD, whereas, I could only do 20 minutes max before dying of boredom the day before.

The recent prodigy album doesnt seem to work for me as much as the old stuff for some reason (on the turbo).

some old punk stuff could become classic turbo tracks but a whole session of punk would do my fruit in.

My playlist at the moment is:-

Emerge. Fischerspooner
Star Guitar. Chemical Brothers
I want your soul. Armand Van Helden
Lola's Theme. Shapeshifters
Call on me. Eric Prydz. (remember the video ?)

Great song about cycling.

All good stuff. But....

It is simply not possible to complete a 5-minute V02max interval without a Rage Against the Machine soundtrack!

Get yerselves onto Amazon and download it for 29p and make it xmas no1 as well!

F**k you I won't do what you tell me!

Cheers, Andy
