For some people, the gym is a place of catharsis. It’s where you work out all your frustrations and anger, or come to the realization that you want to change your life for the better. But for others, it's a terrible ordeal that they dread.
The music in gyms is so important because it affects us in many ways from how we feel to how hard we work out. A good playlist can be enough motivation for some people to go on with their workout routine while others find it more of an annoyance than anything else.
Music can have a great impact on your workout, but the two most important factors are the tempo and volume. If you pick the wrong song for either of those factors, it may leave you feeling tired by the end of your workout.
Gym and fitness music varies in tempo and style depending on whether it's designed to motivate or pump up your energy. You may find yourself zoning out to slow-tempo songs if you're trying to get a good cardio session in after hours, but if you want to put in a serious sweat session at peak hours, then fast-tempo songs with an upbeat sound are best for that.
