I decided on the weekend that I'm not really satisfied with the music I've been working out to while at the gym, and that my current gym rotation needed a serious shake-up. So, I've spent the past hour or so compiling a group of tunes that will hopefully motivate me to "take it up a notch" at the gym. These are songs that have a high bpm or build to a rockin' cresendo at one point or have a beat that just gets me going.I present to you, Mandelbaum Mix Vol. 1, named after Izzy Mandelbum, the eldery fitness fanatic on Seinfeld (see above photo). It's go time!
