![]() ![]() When choosing music, make sure you include a little variety. Sites like jog.fm provide lists of songs organized by pace, BPM, and/or activity, such as running, walking, and cycling. Bear in mind that if, for example, your goal is 180 BPM, songs with 90 BPM can have the same feel if you listen for half beats. If you know your target pace and corresponding BPM, find your music with songs that fit your goal. Check the BPM for a song using google or (my personal preference when creating Underwater Audio Playlists). ( Source) Fit your BPMīPM stands for Beats Per Minute, and is a key piece of information when selecting songs for an exercise playlist. To hit this number, runners usually need to take more steps-most people have a bouncy stride, which wastes energy and strains joints through excessive impact. Since this revelation, 180 has become the bullseye pace. Legendary distance running coach Jack Daniels analyzed the stride of many elite runners, and he found that they almost all took 180 steps per minute (or 90 steps with each leg). Take, for example, this description of the “ideal” running pace: (If that seems like a lot, count for 20 seconds and multiply by 3.) Whatever your activity, get to your usual (or desired) pace and count the number of movements – strokes, strides, revolutions, etc. ![]() Next, if you want to synchronize your movements directly with the beat of your music, you’ll need to determine your pace. ![]() Do you want your footfalls or swimming strokes to hit on the beat? You’ll want to determine your pace. Do you want your heart and breathing at maximum efficiency? Some of your decisions are made: songs with between 125 and 140 beats per minute have been shown to give you the most bang for your metaphorical buck. Are you more concerned about being entertained or distracted from the effort of your workout? You may want to weigh content, mood, and emotional response more heavily than beats. The first step in creating a custom exercise playlist, then, is deciding how much you want to synchronize your motions to the music. What’s more, synchroneity makes your movements and your respiration more efficient. In fact, your heart will actually speed up or slow down to better match music. When you tap your foot to the beat, march in time, dance, and so on, that’s synchroneity, and humans have a natural tendency toward it. So whether you’re a swimmer, a biker, a kickboxer, or an aerobic dancer, the tips we’ve compiled here will help you maximize the benefits of music while adapting your exercise playlist to perfectly suit your fitness goals and exercise routine. And while running to music is far from a revolutionary idea, music can help you get more out of your workout whatever your activity. Music while you exercise can work for you or against you. ![]() Make your music work for you and create a custom exercise playlist that actually helps.
