A New Year's Workout Playlist To Start Off Your Resolutions Right

As 2019 begins, what better way to kick off one of your new year's resolutions than working out to a bumpin' playlist. Sure, you can compile your own songs on Spotify, hit shuffle on your phone, or even just Google other workout playlists, but this one takes the cake. Equipped with slower-paced warm-up tunes, faster songs to run to, and calmer ones for a cool down, this playlist will help motivate you to actually work out. Whether you listen to all of the songs at once (making your workout about an hour long) or mix it up and only play a couple, either route will surely make exercising a bit less of a chore.

"Be The One" - Dua Lipa

For it being the starting song, "Be The One" is upbeat and lively, great for a light jog or fun warm up with slower breaks in between.

"BOOGIE" - BROCKHAMPTON

"BOOGIE" has absolutely no chill. There's no time for breaks during this portion of your workout. You're up and working hard — or else you aren't doing the song justice.

"More" - 5 Seconds of Summer

The underlying beat of this song makes me feel like I can lift a thousand pounds. Try it out bench pressing or lifting weights… if you're feeling up to it!

"Red Light Green Light" - Dune Rats

The energy in this song is insane and makes working out feel almost like a treat (at least for this minute and 54 seconds).

"Gold Digger" - Kanye West and Jamie Foxx

Put on your game face and get into those squats, girl.

"Let's Dance To Joy Division" - The Wombats

This song always makes me want to get up and dance… so why don't we?

"Mr. Brightside" - The Killers

Scream-sing this through the jumping jacks!

"Tongue Tied" - Grouplove

"Tongue Tied" is my go-to jogging song. I absolutely hate running of any sorts, but hearing this while jogging makes it a little less painful. No one can listen to "Tongue Tied" without feeling on top of the world.

"Pet Cheetah" - Twenty One Pilots

The intensity in "Pet Cheetah," combined with its slowed down verses, makes for a perfect workout jam. Play this during a more difficult exercise, where you need a few breathers in between.

"Lose Yourself" - Eminem

What workout playlist doesn't have "Lose Yourself" on it?

"I Bet You Look Good On The Dance Floor" - Arctic Monkeys

This is a super fun, steady jam that enables you to do your reps to the beat of the song.

"Animal" - Neon Trees

"Animal" is yet another great song to run to or just dance around the room to as well. It truly gives you the energy to take on any exercise.

"Roxanne" - The Police

"Roxanne," although it picks up during the chorus, is a decently calmer song to play while beginning to slow down your workout.

"Best Friend" - Rex Orange County

This song can be played really anywhere throughout the workout — as a warm up, cool down, or just while doing sit-ups. Its cool and collective vibes will allow you to truly just focus on the task at hand while giving you a pleasant background jam.

"10,000 Emerald Pools" - BORNS

As the last song on the list, "10,000 Emerald Pools" is a relaxing tune, perfect for the finishing stretches in your workout cool down. Let yourself reap all of the benefits of exercise and reflect on all of the progress you made today.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
