Need some fresh tunes for your workout? Here are my favorite songs from the current Billboard’s Top 100 list:
My favorite on that list is the Swedish House Mafia song – I love to drive with the windows down and practically scream the chorus. And then do an epic fist pump. Reminds me of early 2000s club music.
I am very much looking forward to my run later! It was very dreary out yesterday, so Henry and I participated in a little shopping cardio instead of jogging stroller cardio. We scored some sweet thrift store toys – I’m transitioning his toy box from ‘baby’ toys (mainly chew toys) to bigger boy stuff (blocks!).
Breakfast:
French Toast
Shredded Coconut
Blackberries
Coconut oil
Coconut oil is MUCH better than maple syrup. I swear!
What workout songs are you loving right now?

I’m always a little amazed at how I never recognize modern music or artists. I’ll stick with my ’60s and ’70s jams!
I am so out of touch with music on the top charts right now (hello podcast addiction, lol) but this makes me want to bust out Pandora’s top 40 station!
I am not so sure I could use coconut oil as a topping. I love cooking with it, but if I want a coconut topping, I usually go with shredded coconut or coconut buttah.
love this post–for the music ideas to the coconut oil
and the pic of Pippa in the other post is sooo adorable <3
I always look at the iTunes top downloaded when I’m trying to find new songs but I haven’t looked in a whole. Apparently I should since I don’t know a lot of those!
Oh man I love this post
For one, they play “Scream and Shout” During the intense part of our workouts at my gym (i.e. running 10.0 at a 5% incline. woof) so whenever I hear it on the radio now my legs instinctively hurt. Pavlov of the workout world I suppose.
I have been getting into these lately on my own workouts:
Red Hands- Walk off the Earth (SO SO SO amazing!) awesome beat for a free run
Hey Porshe- Nelly (still unsure why I love this so much)
Wish You Were Here- Cody Simpson (when I need to sprint it out)
Everybody Wants You- Billy Squier (yea, I threw it back with that one)
What I Know- Parachute
Happy Wednesday
Haha Thrift Shop always makes me laugh. My best guy friend is really big into shopping thrifty so I bought the song as his ringtone. Every time he calls me I pick up on the last ring because it’s just so much fun to listen to the song
I wear your grandad’s clothes, I look incredible…
I love putting “Hall of Fame” on high volume when I’m running. Get’s my legs moving.
I’m also loving “Troublemaker” by Olly Murs and “Your Body” by Christina Aguilera.
I love all those songs. My favourite is definitely “Sweet Nothing” – I could listen to that song on repeat!
Also, “I could be the one” by Avici vs. Nicky Romero, is a great song. And the video is the best.
The new Fall Out Boy song is awesome as well as Icona Pop’s “I Love it”. Those 2 songs have been on repeat on my iPod
I’m so much more motivated to work out when I’ve got sweet new jamz to listen too!
I should also add that if you like to stream music through Pandora, download the Songza app. They have AMAZING playlist & they even have ones specific to your mood or time of day! I happen to really enjoy “90′s Club Bangers”
i only knew one song on your list…i feel so out of it
i’ve been listening to podcasts on my runs or running in silent – which i thought i would never do…and as it turns out can be really peaceful
YESSS!!!! I am loving the current music beats….they are definitely reminiscent of early 2000′s!! Ah memories….I was in my early 20′s shakin’ what my momma gave me at the clubs on the weekends. Now- I’m dancing in my living room to these songs with my 5 year old and my 2 year old on my hip- ha!!!
Music is SO important for me to run to. On my first postpartum run my iPod died. Worst thing ever!
Thrift Shop! Love that one, always makes me laugh.
Anything Could Happen is my anthem for 2013. That song rocks in every possible way.
I’m loving on the classics! Journey and Bon Jovi are my favorites! The Eye of the Tiger Pandora station is ridiculous! It gets me fired up to pound out the miles!
I’m loving “Thrift Shop” & “Scream & Shout” right now!
The shredded coconut & coconut oil toppers sound like an excellent idea!
That French toast looks so delicious!!
Kesha! That “C’mon” song is my jam these days! Whenever it comes on while I am driving, I do not give a you-know-what who is watching me.. I sing at the top of my lungs!
I’m obsessed with Robyn right now…”Call Your Girlfriend” and “Dancing on My Own” literally on a loop with every run and every car ride. I know I look like a crazy person running and mouthing the words but she gets me through!
Kathy, I couldn’t agree with you more; those two Robyn tracks are picks are mine also! And have you seen that girl dance? Love her.
I’ve got 6 of those songs on my current workout playlist! Also loving Feel So Close by Calvin Harris and Titanium by David Guetta. Aaaaaand maybe the final performance mashup from Pitch Perfect.
