When it comes to getting a good workout, music is everything. Whether you're pumping iron in the gym, running for hours on a treadmill, or dancing around in your favorite cardio class, you are more than likely jamming along to your favorite tunes. It's a great way to motivate your workout and to make it enjoyable. There's nothing better than taking a spin class to some kick ass music. I think one of the reasons my classes do so well is because of the music selections. When people hear a familiar song, it excites them.
According to LifeMojo, here are few benefits to adding music to your workout:
- Music diverts a person's attention during repetitive exercises, so feelings of fatigue, exhaustion and boredom are minimized.
- Music can reduce the factors contributing to pain, tension, anxiety and discomfort.
- Music can act as a stimulant which can increase your performance. Respiration and cardiac rate is increased with the help of music. This can help intensify your workout.
- The body movement to the rhythm of music increases levels of output.
- The rhythmic qualities can follow the physical skills and can improve motor skills.
- Physical strength can also be attributed to music. Sedative music decreases muscular potential training ability. Fast stimulating music can increase muscle tension.
- It promotes a positive mood and avoids any kind of negative thoughts.
To sum it up, music makes working out fun!
