100 Best Workout Songs of 2008: What's Your Favorite?

By , SparkPeople Blogger
The January 2009 issue of Fitness magazine recently named their top 100 workout tunes of 2008. I was so excited to see this list, because I'm always looking for new songs to add to my iPod and use in my classes. Find out if your favorites made the list!

Fitness breaks the 100 songs into five categories, which each include 20 of the best songs for Spinning, running, walking, weight training and even yoga. I have to admit that I hadn't heard most of the songs on this list, but here are the ones that I do like from their list:





Madonna featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland 4 Minutes





Estelle ft. Kanye West: American Boy





Britney Spears: Womanizer





Rihanna: Disturbia





Fallout Boy: I Don't Care





Natasha Bedingfield: Pocketful of Sunshine





Coldplay: Viva La Vida





The Killers: Human
