[TylerDurden]

The gym where I lift weights usually has easy listening on the radio. Do you know how difficult it is to get ready to do a heavy set while John Denver is singing about country roads???

Music

For me, the 70's porn music from John C. Holmes movies....jk, actually I like stuff from Tool, Rage Against the Machine, Primus, Guns N' Roses, Tupac, Snoop Diggity Dawg, Warren G....geez I never thought early 90's music would age so quickly!

i thought......

I thought it was ...."those cats were fast as lightning..." LOL

Has anybody heard the song "Kung Fu Fighting"
It goes like this:

Oh-oh-oh-oh...

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those jerks were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they fought with expert timing

There was funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were trapping when up, they were trapping when down
It's an ancient Chinese art, and everybody knew their part
For my friend, ain't you a stiff, then I'm kickin' from the hip

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they fought with expert timing

There was funky Billie Jim and little Sammy John
He said, here comes the big boss, let's get it on
We took the bow and made a stand, started swaying with the hand
A sudden motion made me stiff, now we're into a brandnew trip

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they did it with expert timing

Oh-oh-oh-oh...

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, make sure you have expert timing

Kung Fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning...

Most people havent heard of them but one of my favourite training bands is raised fist. The energy in their songs is just amazing it never slows down. They are a great really heavy punk band if you are into that.

But tool is one of my favs as well and sometimes I will throw in a little system of a down or even some radiohead when I am slowing down. Anything works really.

Chinese traditional flute for peaceful, health oriented training.
Japanese koto for aggressive training.
You'd be surprised.

Mine depends on what type of training.

If I am trying to train for a fight I feel I must win then I like to use Electric Slide to train to. Just has a good, solid rythem which I can play constantly. Sometime if it is just practicing then it varies, but still my favorite.

If I am working on focus then I use something by Savage Garden or something that brings up both strong emotions and vivid images. The reason I choose songs like this is to train my mind through internal adventures and my energy by focusing it and learning to control it in each of 7 elemental phases with the last one always being the hardest and most flooded with emotion and control.

If I am doing it to train for just the fun of it, then I choose something fast and playful, but does not stay constant per se.

I guess it all depends on what type of training I am going to do which will decide what type of music I train to. Oh yea and sometimes train to Evanescence, can't forget them. lol

Drum and Bass

I usually listen to drum and bass when training-

It is fast,
heavy,
loud,
energetic
and follows a similar beat throughout so that you can get into a good rhythm.

But I do listen to different types of music because it means that you are used to fighting in different speeds and under different motivation. Listening to different music is good for self defence on the street because you can be prepared for different fighting styles and will less likely be distracted by loud music. There are more reasons too.

Rocky has more good songs than just EOTT, in fact some I'd say were better.

Namely Conquest and Overture by Bill Conti.
