50 Songs To Play To Get You Through That Dreaded Workout

I avoided going to the gym every single day of my freshman year, making up some excuse on why I didn't want to go. I don't do that anymore. Instead, I fully embrace it.

Going to the gym is a battle of mind over matter. It's hard. I'm not going to lie. I have had days where the gym was definitely the farthest thing from my mind. I would much rather avoid the gym all together, and instead binge-watch episodes of Parks and Rec while eating a gigantic family-size bag of Doritos, but I know that's not smart. I hate exercise, but I do love being healthy. I hate cardio, but I love feeling confident after finishing a great workout.

I know that, for me, personally that I wouldn't get through any workout without music. Listed below are a list of fifty songs to play to help you finish that dreaded workout. So finish reading this post, put on your sneakers, put in your headphones, and press play.

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
