Training Music - What is Your Top Workout Song?

First of all you need to take action. You need to decide if you want to stay healthy and fit. I am not here to give you the secrets of the ultimate workout. We all think and act in different ways, I'm here to give you one method that helped me along the way. Training with the right music is the key here. We all have different taste so you need to find out what suits best for you. My main keypoints here are:

What type of music is YOUR favorite

If you go to the gym today you hear some kind of techno crap playing over and over again. I'm not saying that i don´t like techno, i actually love at that is what i listen to the most when I'm training. But usually the gyms play some kind of mainstream music that I'm not in to. And thats what I'm saying, we all have different type of taste in music. So pick the music you are familiar to, so you feel secure when you hit the gym.

Variety, music and training is different for everyone

But even though you for example don´t like rock, you can still get some pumping action. It´s the tempo that decides how fast and slow your workout will be. My training consist of low tempo tracks in the beginning, and in the end of the training with high tempo tracks. I finish off with a low tempo, maybe mellow song. Why? Because after a good training session your body isn't just exhausted physically but also mentally. This is why when you have finished training just sit and relax and listen to a soft and easy song.

Organize your playlist. Next time you go to the gym, think about the music that is already playing.

Do you think that is the music that will give it your top workout and discipline?
Maybe, Maybe not. If you already are listening to your own music, then i think it is important to try to at least organize them into the right tempo and mode.
I will show you some of my examples of this. This is what i listen to when i start my training. Warming up, stretching and getting focused.

Modern Belly Dancing Music

You may already have an idea about what belly dancing music is and what it is not. Maybe you have formed mental images of the Pyramids or the sun setting in an Egyptian sky. The music that you imagine is usually of a typical sound. But you might be surprised to find that the techno beats of modern music are a wonderful variation on the traditional music.

The Mix of Styles

The music used today is a mix of different styles. They are as different as the many varieties of dance movements used in belly dancing. The pop music that is popular in Egypt has become an influence in the music that is used today in the dance. Latin and Saudi influences have also made their way into the music that is heard today.

When you are choosing the music for your routine you should select something that will inspire you to dance. It should be a unique mix that expresses your personal tastes and accents the movements you are performing. There are some people that feel more comfortable with the music of Egypt because of its tradition and unique flavor.

If you have never heard Show Me by Ofra Haza you might well take a listen and see if it fits with your dance routine. It is a mix of the pop music of the Middle East combined with Saudi, and Beladi. When you hear this music you will immediately think of belly dancing.

It is the same as listening to music in a nightclub. The music is designed to inspire people to dance. The same can be said of belly dancing music. The music may be something that you have never heard before, but you will no doubt feel the urge to get up and dance when it is played.

Traditional music is heavily inspired by oriental music. It is full of spontaneous sounds and will get you up on your feet when you listen. When a dancer is dancing to this spontaneous music they may find that their movements will change as they are inspired by the music. This is a spectacular performance. Too many belly dancing routines are heavily choreographed and have lost much of the spontaneity of the dance.

Many of the routines used today are directly influenced by the new modern music. This music has changed the way it is performed. It is an ever evolving art form that has taken a giant step into modern times.
