I am getting bored with the same old tunes in the gym now but need music which pushes me when the muscles start to give way!

Anyone any suggestions?

du hast by rammstein
for something silly why not 9-5 by dolly parton!
 
Depends what you like of course!

I tend to have a selection of fairly fast rock, usually Satriani, with some slower stuff intermixed.
 
exercise music

I use my mp3 player and have a selection of music.

As a general rule I have music with a good beat ( I call it my heart beat music as it is like the beat of my heart when it gets a bit faster).

My son put a selection on for me - from zz top to a few modern rock ish songs and a few slow ones for cool downs and getting breath back !

IF you can afford it and if you swim - the waterproof MP3s are really cool ! Suddenly I am trendy ! lol
 
I have an album called 101 Running Songs which seems to do the trick! I also find some chart R&B albums seem to have the right tempo/beat for jogging too.
 
Running songs or dance music (with a fast beat) work for me - use both when out running too.🙂
