Ok, just because Fall is right around the corner, doesn’t mean we have to totally give up on our workouts. Seriously, the turn of the season is no reason to get lazy, NYGals. However, we do understand that sometimes it’s hard to make your way out of bed on those cold mornings. That’s why we have compiled the ultimate list of music tracks that will help you get up and get moving.
Workouts don’t have to be total torture when you have great music blasting through your earbuds. Take it from us- these tunes will motivate you to finish that squat, run the extra mile, and add another rep into your set.
Here are 33 music tracks for your workout:
