La Jolla Fitness Gurus Share Favorite Workout Playlists

Music has a profound influence on people. It can make us cry, laugh, smile, angry, or dance. Our bodies often have an almost involuntary reaction to music; like when you find yourself nodding along to a song on the radio. Music can also increase stamina and amplify the bodies’ output during workouts. The right song can help the body maintain tempo when running, make one cycle faster on the bike, and boost endurance. Some of the top fitness instructors from La Jolla, California, have come together and revealed their favorite songs that help them push their workouts to the max.
