Training music / workout music

Im a lazy bastard lurker with no time to do any other simple search beyond the " fight music" search I did Today....so If you guys want to list some of your favorite workout music here that would be great. Im trying to upgrade my training CD's and I dont get much time on the net to find good songs to pump me up for kicking ass. I have been using the same **** while i train, and I am ashamed to say that I still listen to "Bodies" by drowning pool when im at the rifle range! Although last week I was doing mech training and I was attached to a team that rolled around in a m1a1 listining to slayer while we blew old BMP's up. It was motivating. Anyway, please help out a Marine and give me some tunes!!

Wasn't there a workout music sticky for a while?

System of a down.
Rage against the machine.
Disturbed.
Avenged sevenfold.
Killswitch engage.
Enya.

And enya's not a joke - I made a cd to work out to that has fight music track then has a 1 minute clip of an enya song so I know to stop and rest. Works out pretty good.

Older but still good:

Prodigy. "Fire Starter" and the like is good.
Rob Zombie.
Sad to admit my age but Duran Duran (original stuff, NOT the RandB crap).
Rage and System are good pump music too, but already mentioned.

system, killswitch, In Flames, Metallica, Pantera, Tool and Perfect Circle (works for me), Lamb of God, From autumn to Ashes, Andrew W.K. (can't find anything with more energy then Andrew W.K.) and then some weak stuff like Postal Service.

Come on people...

Just go and buy the Rocky theme compilation disc and put it in your stereo. You won't even need to lift those heavy things anymore as your muscles will grow all by themselves.

You don't even need music, just do what I do and make mp3's from the audio of hardcore porn with chicks screaming/fake orgasming/taking it in the ass, holy **** that gets the testosterone flowing; hot damn I sure am straight, yarrr.

Seriously though.

I would recommend house or breakbeat-type stuff, psytrance, (I think the absence of lyrics and basis on a buildup/falloff structure rather than chorus works much better for lifts) really anything unless you're one of those persons who needs all their workout music to be DOUBLE PLUS EXTREME. ****, sometimes I listen to flamenco while doing deads (hey, no one else has to hear it and it does get the blood flowing) Some recommandations:

-Future Sound of London
-Astral Projection
-Way Out West
-Crystal Method
-Suba
-DJ Cheb i Sabbah
-Armin van Buuren

Livesets tend to work well as they keep up the intesity and tend to be about workout length.

Yeah who killed the sticky?

-Armin van Buuren
-Astral Projection

Really like those two, though eventually all AP songs sound the same.
Will have to check out the rest.
