Katrena's Retro Cardio Exercise Playlist #1

Katrena's Retro Cardio Playlist #1

I love music and enjoy dancing. Although I am serious about exercising and strive to exercise for my health's sake, I do not feel like it has to be all grunts, groans, and miserable movement. I find exercise to be enjoyable! I can exercise with a good playlist for an hour or longer and wonder where the time went, even though the sweat is dripping off.

I tend to alternate faster and slower songs so that I can incorporate a little interval training. You often work harder on that tough kickboxing jump rope segment if you know that you'll be dancing the Cha Cha on the next clip.

Here is one of my favorite playlists full of retro music that lends itself well to a cardio workout:

1. In the Mood
2. Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On
3. Big Girls Don't Cry
4. We Are a Part of a Better Nation
5. Pinball Wizard
6. Greased Lightening (it helps to do imagine doing this one in the garage!)
7. Old Time Rock and Roll
8. Thriller
9. Twist & Shout
10. We Are Family
11. Respect
12. Celebration

There you have it - find these songs on your favorite music purchase site, load them up and you've got a fabulous, energetic workout! Before starting or changing any workout routine, check with your healthcare provider to ensure that the exercise is safe for your health condition.
