This song is fast and upbeat from start to finish. The singer (Jon Crosby) keeps you energetic with his highly emotionally charged voice that just comes at you in waves. Just watch out for the very end where all you have to work with is bagpipes, that might slow you down a bit if you don't see it coming.

The Used come at you face-first with guns blazing with this song. The hard beat will keep you moving for your entire workout. Just watch out, there's a little explicit content. Don't drop a weight on your foot just because you hear Burt drop an F-bomb.

This is one of my favorite songs of all time, not just to work out to. The beat makes you want to move and in the middle of the song when it slows down, you'll take it as a much needed break. Just be careful, it comes right back and it comes back strong!

This song gets just a little bit screamy and the very beginning is a little bit more tame than the rest of the song. So be ready to crank up the intensity a bit! Just don't let the slow downs and speed ups change your pace too much.

This is the right song to end on. It's upbeat and has a good rhythm but it's not too fast paced or hard core. It'll end your work out on a really nice note. Plus the little instrumental part in the middle will give you one last little burst for really going strong. Just don't overdo it!
