172 Rock Songs to Train To

Posted by Jason Ferruggia

I polled the Renegade Nation on my Facebook and Twitter pages asking for your favorite rock songs. I wanted strictly rock, not metal. So Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Social Distortion and that kind of stuff. Some of the answers we got could definitely be considered metal and what category do you put Rage Against the Machine in?

Anyway, here’s a compilation that will hopefully give you some good ideas to your workout play mixes.

Please do me a favor and post your top 3-10 favorite rock training songs that AREN’T already listed here.

Let’s get a huge list together for all members of the Renegade Nation to add to their libraries.

And share this with your friends so they can add theirs.

Thanks.
