I can always count on my friends to nudge me towards this millennium in terms of music.
I’m always looking for new tunes – music is my ULTIMATE moodbooster – along with coffee, rest, and flowers.
It is what nudges this reluctant exerciser to actually sweat.
It is what reminds me to breathe.
Music is medicine for me.
So I was happy to get this recommendation from Heather (@smashfit). If this tune makes her feel like an AMAZING SUPER HERO, then I will try that cape on for size.
Katy Perry has a great voice, and I’ve liked every song of hers that I’ve heard.
But alas, I don’t have her tunes on said digital music device.
This is a fun, catchy tune, complete with a lovely message.

Being of your generation, I too am perpetually stuck in my old-school musical ways. But I have two kids who try to drag me into the present, and this is a favorite of my daughter’s. We can pretend we’re with it, right?

Yes, Kris – I love my classic rock & some of the 80′s bands like Bon Jovi but I still like a few of the newer people. ;-) I love Katy Perry!!!

Uhm, but it’s not Jackson Browne…. :-)
I don’t listen to music when I workout — I haven’t for years. With reading time scarce due to my business, I listen to books and lectures on i-Tunes. The interesting thing is that my workouts don’t suffer at all, and I seem to absorb the information better than I do when reading. I will admit that Katy Perry is a modern bombshell….

Yep – she is a hottie for sure! Hmmmm – boooks? Now that’s an idea…. but I have a strange suspicion, knowing me, that I might not break a sweat…
I can SO relate to this post… music and coffee rock my workout world. And while I’ve got a few lingering boomer tunes on my playlist, I’m finding that newer pop stuff is actually pretty darn awesome!
My dilemma is finding stuff that’s FAST for the elliptical. Takes me hours and hours but worth it!
Ahhh – I hardly have any pop on my lists – but I’m working on it :) And I’m not a speedster by any stretch – I prefer more resistance and a slower tempo on said machines….
Really found this post interesting! I’ll be pinning this on pinterest!
