When choosing the best music for an exercise routine, the number of beats per minute in a song you select is more important than its genre or style, since your heart rate will speed up or slow down to match the music’s pulse. Some online music stores, such as Power music (link 7) and Yes! Fitness Music (link 8, above), offer pre-assembled playlists of songs suitably paced for aerobics, step classes, cycling, yoga, and other types of fitness routines – or allow you to create your own custom mix of selections at the tempo you need. But you probably don’t need to buy new music to create an excellent playlist. Dj BPM Studio (link 9) provides an extensive list of popular songs organized by beats-per-minute, free of charge. By consulting the list, you can assemble your own exercise music from selections you already own, at precisely the pace you need.
