It’s Tunes Tuesday time! I’m thrilled to be hosting this link up with Janelle and Steff each week! We hope that you find new songs for your playlist each week!
This week is all about pump up songs. You know, those songs that give you a little extra power to finish up your run or workout. Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of rap music when I feel like lifting a little heavier or running a little faster. These songs have been re-introduced to my playlist this week because they’re just fun!
Song: Shorty Wanna Ride
Album: Straight Outta Cashville
Artist: Young Buck
Genre: Hip Hop
Year Released: August 2004
I loved this song back in the day and heard it again recently and promptly added it to my music playlist rotation. Any song that makes me want to dance, automatically qualifies as a pump up jam 🙂
Song: Never Scared
Album: AttenCHUN!
Artist: Bone Crusher
Genre: Crunk / Hip Hop
Year Released: April 2003
This is such a good crunk song! I absolutely love the beat and it just makes me want to stomp and dance. Every time I hear him say “I ain’t never scared” it makes me want to work that much harder. Because honestly, we shouldn’t be scared of anything, especially when it comes to fitness goals, right?
Do you have a favorite song that gets you pumped up? Let us know and add your blog post to the link up below!
