PUSH Exercise Playlist Recommendation. The Soft Pack-Answer to Yourself. BPM 160+.
In a 2005 study at Brunel University, runners cut an average of half a second off their 400-meter times when they listened to music in a certain tempo range. The results showed that when carefully selected according to scientific principles, music can enhance endurance by 15% and improve the ‘feeling states’ of exercisers, helping them to derive much greater pleasure from the task. It was well noted that music can help exercisers to feel more positive even when they are working out at a very high intensity – close to physical exhaustion.
Choose beats in the bpm sweet spot–120 to 140. To step it up when you need it most, pick one adrenaline song (at least 130 bpm or more) which fires you up and position it to play at the point where you are draggin as$–whether during the warmup or at mile 10. This Song is BPM160+.
To find out what your song’s BPM is, you can use these 2 resources:
