We have tried to provided you with energizing country songs that vary in style and tempo. Chosing the right tempo of music can be very important as your body will naturally move itself to that tempo. Choose a tempo that is too slow or too fast, and you may spoil your workout. For that reason, an approximate beat per minute has been listed beside each song.

Here is a basic guideline of which tempos are good for different workouts:

Under 100 BPM: Slower paced workouts and during warm ups and cool downs
100 to 130 BPM: Walking and portions of your workout that are a little faster paced
Over 130 BPM: Higher impact exercise and cardio
135 to 140 BPM: Power walking
135 to 155 BPM: Jogging
150 to 175 BPM: Running
Over 175 BPM: Fast running and sprinting

Pick music that will gradually increase your tempo until you reach your optimum speed and then gradually decrease your tempo at the end of the workout. This will ensure that you are warming up and cooling down properly.
