Preparing for a workout is sometimes as daunting as the actual exercise. After mapping out your specific goals, carving out rest time, and deciding which muscles to target each day, you might already be sweating. Finding a way to actively implement your carefully crafted workout plan takes an extra bit of motivation . . . not to mention a really great workout playlist. On the days when you need a little push to get off the couch and out the door, music is key. But as you start to curate the perfect workout vibes, remember that the gym playlist name is one of the most important parts.
The gym playlist you choose depends at least partially on your mood. Do you want to feel like you’re at an EDM rave while trying to hit a new PR, or are you craving the comforting nostalgia of some iconic rom-com anthems as you run? Since your music choice will likely differ day-by-day, your workout playlist names have to be top-tier, and at least somewhat reflective of that music contained inside. There’s a certain satisfaction that comes with creating the perfect workout playlist name — but settling on the right moniker is easier said than done. If you’re passionate about playlists but fresh out of gym playlist name ideas, we’ve got you covered.
