Love Your Workout Playlist

It seems as if hearts and love fill the air this time of year. After all, National Heart Month and Valentine’s Day both fall in the month of February, but that certainly does not mean that one must rush out and find a valentine. This year try focusing a little more “love” on yourself. It may sound silly, but say something positive about yourself while looking in the mirror. Give yourself a little post-it note of words of encouragement or congratulations. For example, did you make it the gym five times this week? Write down how good it made you feel.

So in honor of  February–the month full of heart/love, here is one of my love-themed playlists. Whether you’re head over heels or totally over the whole love scene, these songs will definitely get your heart pumping and put a little extra kick in your next workout.
