“Mash-up” music is a great way to keep your energy and tempo up while working out. Music groups such as White Panda and Girltalk have become increasingly more popular amongst college students because of the techno flare they give to original song tracks
“I have been listening to mash-up music more and more each year since college,” said Jon Lisicki sophomore business. “I really like it because of the change of pace and it is cool to listen to because I feel like your mind stays stimulated. There’s also a lot of [internet] sites that you can go to and listen to mash-ups so it is easy to always find some new songs.”
You can even create your own mash-up songs through computer programs. This allows you to personalize your workout playlists using your favorite running beats and songs.
Rachel Cunningham, sophomore communication, has been mixing her own music to workout, dance and listen to for the past 9 years.
"I think that mashing-up my own music is what really keeps me motivated while working out," said Rachel.
