Top 10 workout tracks
TOP 10 WORKOUT TRACKS FOR OCTOBER: Robin Thicke is entitled to wear a giant foam finger on each hand in honor of the two tracks he’s logged on Run Hundred’s latest BPM Top 10. In case you haven’t heard “Blurred Lines” enough times yet, you can zumba to the remix at the gym. As we predicted/hoped last month, Eminem has made the cut, striking a blow for the old school, while Britney orders working girls to work out in no uncertain terms and Ellie Goulding urges them to burn those calories. It’s easy to see why gym instructors from coast to coast blast these selections ad infinitum.
Robin Thicke & Kendrick Lamar - “Give It 2 U” – 126 BPM
Katy Perry & Juicy J - “Dark Horse” – 133 BPM
Ellie Goulding - “Burn” – 88 BPM
Eminem - “Berzerk” – 95 BPM
Rihanna & David Guetta - “Right Now (Justin Prime Radio Edit)” – 131 BPM
Britney Spears - “Work Bitch” – 127 BPM
Mat Zo vs. Chuck D - “Pyramid Scheme (Radio Edit)” – 128 BPM
Bruno Mars - “Treasure (Sharam Radio Remix)” – 125 BPM
Benny Benassi & John Legend - “Dance the Pain Away” – 124 BPM
Robin Thicke, Pharrell & T.I. - “Blurred Lines (Will Sparks Remix)” – 128 BPM
This month’s playlist is somewhat different at our gym, where Arcade Fire’s “Reflektor,” HAIM’s “The Wire” and “Falling,” Kings of Leon’s “Rock City,” ZZ Ward’s “365 Days” and the Avicii-Audra Mae collab "Addicted to You" are on repeat, along with the ever-present Capital Cities, Lana Del Rey and JT. Now put your hands up in the air, dammit. (10/9a)
