I think one of the most important parts of working out is good music. Without the right song with the right beat and lyrics, we're sluggish and out of the zone. But, if you can find the perfect song, or just the right playlist, you'll be able to pull HEAVY weight for hours, come back later, and lift again. I'm always on the prowl for new music, so I figured I'd share a couple songs with you guys, to see if you'd like them.

1. Monster - Meek Mill

My music taste ranges from pop to rap to rock to R&B, so some of these songs might work for you and others may not. But this song should work for everyone. Meek Mill is fire. I know he has that whole beef with Drake and whatever, but he spits bars, and this song just gets me pumped up.

2. Numb/Encore - JAY Z and Linkin' Park

This is a HUGE throwback from when I was in like eighth grade, but it still goes.

3. Trophies - Drake

Another heater thats been around for a couple years. Just makes you feel hyped, man.

4. Give Me A Sign - Breaking Benjamin

I'm a HUGE fan of music that gets me angry. This song gets me mad, for sure.

5. Pittsburgh - The Amity Affliction

My new-found love, The Amity Affliction, put out a solid song with Pittsburgh. I rage to it and lift mad weight.

6. The Downfall of Us All - ADTR

Just an insane intro that will honestly make you want to run through walls.

7. Wild Eyes - Parkway Drive

Again, another absolutely insane intro which will have you lifting triple your previous max.

8. Calm Down - G Eazy

HUGE fan of this guy, always lays it down heavy.

9. Rap God - Eminem

Speaking of white rappers, check this guy out. You might know him.

10. Gordo - Carnage

Pretty short song, but still gets you PUMPED!

11. Down With The Sickness - Disturbed

Pretty well known song, still gets me going every damn time with that drop.

12. IV. sweatpants - Childish Gambino

Childish thooooooo

13. Language - Porter Robinson

EDM is tough with workouts, basically I just try to find the best drops, but this whole song man, something special.

14. Break The Cycle - Motionless in White

15. New Slaves - Kanye West

16. Champions - Kanye West

17. Collard Greens - Schoolboy Q

I love hyped rap

18. Wild Boy - MGK

The OG

19. Lights Out - Breaking Benjamin

20. No Excuses - Timeflies

Thats all I have for you guys! Like I said, my music taste varies heavily between what I like at the gym. I hope some of these work for you guys, though.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
