Workout Playlist...with a TWIST!

Kyougu

My current workout playlist is getting a bit old. So I'm building a new one. I noticed that apart from the heavy, fast metal that usually helps me workout, geek music really pumps me up. Talking about anime/game/inspirational/80's music here. So looking for suggestions. So far I got:

-The main Rocky Songs (Eye of the Tiger, Heart of Champions, etc.)
-You're the Best (Karate Kid)
-Punch Out Remix
-Ready Steady Go (2nd Full Metal Op)

That's bout it. Pretty open to almost any suggestions!

You're gonna need a montage! A sports training montage!

A few of the songs from the bleach soundtrack and the real emotion song from final fantasy are pretty good for working out. Have you checked out black mages for music as well? Final fantasy theme songs played as heavy metal.

Teen Wolf songs, obviously.

Win in the End - Mark Safan
Flesh on Fire - James House

Oh, and Fight to Survive by Stan Bush from Bloodsport

Jokerman

Sounds like what you're gonna want is some minibosses.

They also covered "Punch out!" and it rocks.

Jaded

Almost anything from the Metal Gear Solid 3 soundtrack.
Push it to the limit from Scarface.

I always liked the battle song from ff7 I think the black mages do a pretty good metal version.

Cowboy Bebop opening theme is pretty awesome, gets me pumped up usually.

Iceman.USAF

What about nerdcore stuff? The Futuristic Sex Robots have some pretty hilarious stuff, as does MC Chris.

I've found that some hardcore/fast metal with some techno/dance music in them is an awesome motivator when working out so here are some suggestions from my personal collection, please excuse what some consider emo etc:

Asking Alexandria

I love starting off a work out mix with Going the Distance from Rocky.

Re:80's games tunes: check out The Megas

Rainbulimic

The theme from Run Lola Run (Believe by Franka Potente) is something I find good to work out to!

In fact, the other song "Wish" from that soundtrack is equally good, perhaps better.

It's also quite a good film, but that's beside the point.

Raneados

basically anything by Andrew WK

Boutros

Fight the Good Fight, by Triumph.

mechaThor

The Go! Team have basically built their sound around energy and cheesy TV themes.

If the SF4 menu song(INDEEEEESTRUCCCCTABLLLEE) is not hidden behind one of those blocked videos up there I am ashamed of everyone for not beating me to it.

Exile - The Next Door (Indestructable) is the title I believe.

Also Sick Puppies - War (the street fighter) and Going Down
