I'm part of a group investing in a Gym. We had a meeting yesterday and everyone was asked to make a list of all their pet peeves when it comes to the gyms they've been to over the years. Music was an issue on almost everyone's list.
My idea is that when you join you submit your 20 favorite songs to workout to, then the songs are placed in the gym's soundsystem (itunes) When you have your membership card scanned upon arrival the system adds your songs to the list to be played-
What do you think?
i think thats an excellent idea. i wish all gyms did that. but when the gays walkin with boy george tracks it wont be so great
that will not work b/c you could go from cannibal corpse to the dixe chicks everyone would be pissed itll throw off your workout. Besides not all songs are approprite and also not everyone wants to listen to bands like I do growling and screaming. Best bet get an mp3 player like60 bucks not badQuote:

you get what I'm saying though I mean if it was a gym that played the sanme type of music all day like a rock station then you got your top favotrite hard rock songs than it would work but if your someone like me that digs just metal I dont wanna here rap at all even though everyone puts in there songs wheater it be rap, rock, metal you might get a majority of one style like rap and those who dont dig on that will listen to rap for a long while then might get a metal song picked every so often but.....you get what Im saying thoughQuote:

I know what you mean the gym here at school sometimes plays like soft music it makes you sad. All gyms should just use a hard rock station and break the dialQuote:

Dont most people these days have mp3.
Give them a list to choose from. This way at least you can have some control over it.
