Classical music to workout to
Want to take classical music with you to the gym, yoga class or out on the road? Here are some suggestions of great jams to motivate you to get your sweat on!
The Lark Ascending - Vaughan Williams
This is my favorite piece to accompany either the warm up or cool down phases of the workout. Although it is a sort of calm and quite work, it pairs nicely with yoga or stretching.
Symphony No. 9, 4th Movement - Dvorak
Wonderful to run to, this will certainly push you to run up those hills!
Sabre Dance - Khachaturian
An all time favorite! Another motivational runner's piece.
An American In Paris - Gershwin
This piece is great in helping take our mind away from things when you're trying to get through that 10 minute (at least it feels that long) plank
Passacaglia - Handel
A perfect asset to your endurance training portion!
"West Side Story" Symphonic Dances - Bernstein
Perfect for seeing you through those growling ab exercises!
War Sonata, Finale - Prokofiev
Right when you thought you didn't have any more energy left, Prokofiev fires you back up.
Papagena/Popageno - Mozart
A sweet song, because not every run is a sprint!
Scaramouche - Milhaud
Another great source of energy!
Hoe Down Rodeo - Copland
Foot taping rhythms! You'll get through this workout with optimistic music like this.
3rd Prelude - Gershwin
Quick little movement to help you trim your sprint time down.
