The Yogi
Maisie Flynn
“I love doing yoga but I wish I could do it more. I either do hot yoga classes at my gym or I do it in a meadow near by my house. This is nice because there is a trail around the meadow that I can run on before/after I do yoga, plus I get to pick my own music. I usually choose the music I listen to by my mood, but also it can change based on what type of exercise I will be doing. For instance, meditation is usually slower, and core is usually more upbeat and energized. However, the gym also has benefits because it lets me choose from a variety of different types of yoga including some that are not available to me on my own, like hot yoga, which takes place in a room that’s around 105 degrees and very humid.”

The Kid With All the Cool Music
Larry Guo
“Since I’m not a heavy lifting bodybuilder manly man that likes rap, these are all songs that “make me feel like a badass.” Very deep, low-BPM electronic music that makes me feel cool when I’m really really skinny and flimsy. Listen to if: you can take a lot of electronic music, you want to feel like a digital assassin, and you aren’t motivated by rap.”

The Lifter
Jimmy Carmichael
“Before any one read my list of songs just note that everyone has their own tastes in genres of music. In my own personal experience, nothing gets my heart rate beating and adrenaline pumping more than hard core rock. These 12 song I will share with you, I do not only use to work out with, but on any occasion that I want to get ‘jacked up’ and ready to go! For example, for more than a few Friday night football games, I could be found sitting at my locker with my head phones turned all the way up, rocking out and getting psyched up.”

The Pure Barre Fanatic
Isabel Penrose
“I would definitely consider myself a very active and athletic person, so last summer when I heard about the new ‘Pure Barre’ workout, I was excited to try it out. Now I’m hooked. Pure Barre is an hour-long, total body workout that is aimed at toning and strengthening your body. I like to think of it as a combination of pilates, ballet and yoga. Each workout uses different isometric exercises to target certain areas of the body. One of the best parts of each workout is the music. Pure Barre instructors blast upbeat music to add to the fun atmosphere, and they also time out each song to each specific workout in order to keep you engaged and focused during class. I am hooked on Pure Barre because it offers a fun, upbeat workout that truly works on strengthening my body.”
