A guide to the ultimate workout playlist.

Play That Funky Music

I hate working out.

I really do. I'm just gonna come right out and say it. I mean, who likes to sweat and push themselves and do arduous activity? Why can't I just obtain rock hard abs and pectoral muscles by relying solely on cookie butter and Netflix?

Unfortunately, that's not reality (sucks I know). But, I guess there's a way to make my workouts enjoyable. I do that through music. If you have a killer workout playlist, I guarantee that you can get through ANY and I mean ANY workout. Even burpees. So, if you wouldn't mind, today I want to share with YOU my Spotify Workout Playlist. Filled with motivation, inspiration, and another word that ends with "ation," this playlist gets the blood running and guns pumping.


So, without further ado, I present to you, a sneak peak to my Spotify Workout Playlist.

1. "ON THE FLOOR" BY JENNIFER LOPEZ, FEATURING PITBULL

I don't care what anyone says. This. song. is. my. JAM. Just imagine: You're on the treadmill and in front of you is a beautiful view of New York City. In the midst of this majestic sight, the synthesizer begins in a low mysterious tone, and then BAM, J-Lo hits you with a sexy beat with a splash of Pitbull. You suddenly feel motivation rushing through your thighs into your feet and before you know it, you just burned 400 calories in less than half an hour. WORK IT MAMI.


2. "WORK B****" BY BRITNEY SPEARS


I know. You're totally judging me. It's okay. Just heed my advice and listen to this song while your doing the tough work out. There is nothing like, the QUEEN, telling you "You want a hot body? You better work b****," in fact I totally applaud it. It keeps me in check and I can assure you, Ms. Spears won't fail to whip you into shape quick.


3. "SHUT UP AND DANCE" BY WALK THE MOON

Not only was this one of the hottest songs of the summer, but you feel like you can lift the world with this song. With it's killer beats and catchy melody that'll stay in your head for a straight week, you'll never want to turn this song off. Well, until you're tired of it ... then yeah, skip ahead. But seriously, for all you folks that like to pump that iron, this is the jam you gotta have. It'll get you pumped for that dead lift, or for your 250 lb. bench press.


4. "END OF TIME" BY BEYONCE

*No explanation needed*

5. "CAN'T FEEL MY FACE" BY THE WEEKND


This song just gets me going man, especially when I'm with the big boy section (it's not exclusively for boys, girls lift too) with all the free weights. You'll be able to lift so hard with this song pumping at you. You won't be able to feel your arms afterwards (see what I did there hehe)


6. "COOL FOR THE SUMMER" BY DEMI LOVATO

Just listen to the track. I'm sure you already have. The reason this song is on here is simply because Demi is BAE. No real motivation behind it. She's just bae. And she forever will be.

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.

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.

WP content

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.
