10 Favorite Workout Songs from Our 10 Favorite Fitness Instructors

Sometimes the hardest part of the workout is getting started. A good song gives you the energy and confidence to get out the door, push harder during the workout, and can even encourage you to try something new. We asked our fitness instructors (who create workout playlists for a living!) for some of their all-time favorite songs:

Low Impact & Endurance Workouts

“The Champion” by Carrie Underwood and Ludacris

— Katelyn Cianelli of Riverside Wellness Center

“Joy” by King and Country

— Bre Gentile of Equinox

“I’d Love to Change the World” by Jetta Matstubs Remix

— Katie Vovolka of Light + Glory Fitness

Why? “always think of Rocky running on the beach and it motivates me to run a little faster. I resist the urge to start shadow boxing in public! LOL.”

High Impact & Faster Paced Workouts

“Power” by Little Mix (feat. Stormzy)

— Kaycie Foster of High Fitness

“September” by Throttle

— Carolyn Gross of Yoga 4 U and Yogafit

Why? “It’s an awesome remix of a classic and it’s impossible to not dance when you hear it! I always put it on towards the end of my workout for an extra boost — and usually belt it out.”

“SICKO MODE” by Travis Scott (Feat. Drake)

— Alix Zargar of Pure Barre

“Bad Energy” By Zeina

— Brian Langum of Hidrate Spark Studios

“Level Up” By Ciara

— Adrianne Grunes of [Solidcore] and FlyWheelSports

Why? “It is a fun, positive, upbeat song and makes me want to run around, dance, and sing — and life is too short to not want to dance and sing. Plain and simple it puts a smile on my face.”
