Going to the gym and not having some jams to listen to is type boring…you need some motivational juice of music to say WHOOP SOME EXERCISING ASS, don’t you think?  Well I have one of my play-list that stays on repeat that fits me to make me anger, hype, ready to dance, shake a booty or two, or straight up wild out and act a fool.

Taylor Gang – Wiz Khalifa
Dig A Hole – Jay Z
Grown Simba – J Cole
Body Ya – Fabolous
Yonkers – Tyler, The Creator
Transylvania – Tyler, The Creator
FastLane – Eminem & Royce 5,9
Otis – Kanye West & Jay Z
H.A.M. – Kanye West 7 Jay Z
Disgusting – J. Cole
Freeze – T-Pain
In The End – Linkin Park
Faint – Linkin Park

This is just some of my songs I have in my playlist…there is more in which I will share in part 2 of this post.

Here is how I prep before my workout.
1.  I talk to myself and complain how FAT I am and how I am not going HARD enough.
2.  I go and look at my face in the mirror, and say you ain’t nothing homie, I bet you can’t go HARD TODAY.
3.  Then I say to myself, WHAT?? Heck Yea I can go hard…Splash myself with COLD WATER to GET PUMPED…
4. Start reciting lyrics from one of my favorite HYPED songs, while I get dress and mp3 player/iPod is charging…
5.  Step outside my door blasting my gym play-list in my earbuds…and ignoring th world for I am going to go in for a GREAT WORKOUT.
6.  Special Tips..SING OUT LOUD, it makes you feel the music more…Forget what the people in the world have to say…lol…or at least lip sync the songs or very low-level that no one can hear how bad you can rap or sing.

What music do you listen to? Do you have a gym playlist?  Do you listen to any of the songs listed above?

new things I added: being on YouTube.com front page, being a YouTube partner, being a manager, be endorsed, being sponsored, losing weight…

my comment of the week: I really take pride sharing my life with the world.  I am just trying my hardest to be an inspiration to others who want to achieve big goals in their lives.  I am just started on my album, and it’s a big pick a choose debate on what to leave in or take out.  I am getting better at YouTube and making videos I am so excited on my coming new videos in the works.

Though I am super late in writing my goals and sharing them, the year isnt over as yet.  This post is orginally written on October 4th, 2011, still have 3 months to go in the year.  I shall be constantly adding a goal and checking off goals as time passes by as I will repost this post every tuesday until the end of the year.  In no means am rushing any of these goals, they were all pretty much known and I have been working on since March 2011.
