Favourite gym tracks?

Ok, so here's a Friday afternoon post for you (I'm doing a research funding application and it's soooooo dull )

What are your favourite tracks to give you that lift at the gym or on the trainer to finish a hard workout?

At the moment I'm liking Our Velocity by Maximo Park and The Trumpton Riots by Half Man Half Biscuit.

    I keep a few NAPT mixes on standby for when it gets boring in the gym, theres a free one here if anyone wants some non cheesy upbeat breakbeats:

    Most songs by The Prodigy and Rage Against the Machine seem to help get me through to the end. Not really sing-along kinda stuff but hey!

    Thats going back a few years it's almost 'Back in the DHSS',you don't get bands like that anymore.
  • Yes, a suggestion from my hubby.

    Really enjoying it but everyone else in the gym must think I'm a loony when I start grinning like a maniac while plodding away on the treadmill!
