My 5 Favorite Bootcamp Warm-Up Songs

Thursday, January 6th, 2011

Before I list my 5 favorite boot camp warm-up songs when using the new iWorkout Muse PRO app for the iPhone and iPod Touch for my camps and personal workouts, I want to first announce yesterday’s content winner.

We had an awesome surge of favorite workout music posts at our Workout Muse Facebook Fan Page and thanks to all for participating!

http://www.facebook.com/workoutmuse

Not only were there are ton of new songs I’m adding to our bootcamp playlists, but there were some classic songs that I had forgotten about over time.

Though everyone contributed some fantastic suggestions, there can only be one winner…

Congratulations to Dave Macfarlane!!

Dave suggested “Click Click Boom” by Saliva and I totally forget about this song and actually never even knew the name of the song or artist(s).

It’s pretty hype so I added it to my master bootcamp playlist right away.

Dave, please email support@workoutmuse.com to claim your free coupon code for our brand new iWorkout Muse Pro app. You can either use the coupon code for yourself or gift it to a friend, family member, client, or camper who has an iPhone or iPod Touch- the choice is yours!!

Now, on to my 5 favorite bootcamp warm-up songs…

One of the cool new features of our new iWorkout Muse PRO app is the ability to have pre-workout, workout, and post-workout sections AND the ability to select specific music for each section.

So I always have certain songs/playlists for the pre-workout that differ from the workout or post-workout.

What’s the difference between a warm-up and a workout song?

Well, for me, the warm-up song is meant to get you ready to rock for the upcoming high-intensity workout.

It should have a steady build of tempo and intensity and finish with a nice little climax at the end.

It needs to inspire you to get ready to move with passion and purpose.

Plus, I think it’s also nice when the song is a bit quirky and fun.

Here are my current 5 favorite bootcamp warm-up songs:

1.) Jukebox Hero by Foreigner

2.) What is Love by Haddaway

3.) Pump Up the Jam by Technotronic

4.) Super Freak by Rick James

5.) Uprising by Muse


What’s your favorite warm-up song for your workouts? I want to know!

So, we’re going to be having another FB Fanpage contest just like yesterday, except this time I want to hear about your favorite warm-up song.

Here’s the deal and it will take you less than 60 seconds to participate:

1.) Head over to our Workout Muse Facebook Fan Page by clicking the link below (or copy and paste it into your browser):

2.) Make a quick post about what your absolute favorite warm-up song is (you can list a couple if you can’t decide on just one- I understand that it’s tough!)

PS- Listen to what Joe Dowdell said about the new iWorkout Muse PRO app on Facebook: Joe Dowdell: Just downloaded the new version of iWorkout Muse Pro. Already set it up for my Modified Strongman training session tomorrow. Totally looking forward to cranking up the tunes and moving some load. Thanks BJ Gaddour!

Joe is the top trainer in NYC and trains a list of who’s who including actors, musicians, world class athletes, models, high-profile executive and more at his gym Peak Performance in Downtown Manhattan. If it works for Joe, it should work for you ;)

PPS- Check out what Robert Palka, one of Joe’s friends, said in response to Joe’s update about our app:

Robert Palka That iWorkout is fantastic. Used it last night for some intervals. Good to be able to choose your own music. They could easily double the price, it’s well worth it.about a minute ago

Robert is right. And we will probably be bumping up the price by the end of the week so be sure to get the new app before we do:

This app is the real deal. My workouts have never been the same since I downloaded it. Seriously no more wasting time looking at watch/clock it tells me when I need to work & recover. I also highly recommend all my clients to get this app for their off day workouts. You’re really missing out if you don’t buy it now. No Joke!

Dan Go- Bro! I just downloaded it….it is SICK!!!

Angela Camlin Monte- Awesome app!!!!

Jason Barrett Morgan- I love how the music now pauses with the voice, I’ve missed commands in the past.

Crank it with BJ: D.A. Wallach of Chester French!!

Thursday, December 23rd, 2010
The other day I was honored to work out celebrity D.A. Wallach, the lead singer of Chester French. D.A. and I went to high school together and have stayed in touch since.
For those of you who don’t know, Chester French is a pop music duo comprising singer D.A. Wallach and multi-instrumentalist Max Drummey. The group originally formed in 2003 as a five piece live band at Harvard University, where the band members were freshmen. A year later, D.A. and Max began working as recording engineers at the school’s student recording studio, and continued writing, producing, and engineering their music as a duo. By their senior year, the album that they had made for less than $2,000 sparked a bidding war between some of the biggest artists in popular music, including Kanye West and Pharrell Williams. Ultimately, D.A. and Max signed with Williams to his Star Trak imprint on Interscope Records (home to U2, Eminem, Gwen Stefani).

Since then, Chester French has played hundreds of shows with its three piece backing band, touring the US and Europe as a headliner or with Blink 182, Weezer, N*E*R*D, Common, or Lady Gaga. D.A. and Max have also made a point to connect with their supporters through free, intimate acoustic performances in dozens of sneaker shops and record stores around the U.S. Their relentlessly energetic and engaging sets have won fans of a variety of styles of music, and the group’s audiences are as diverse as its sound.

In April of 2009, Chester French released its highly-anticipated debut album, Love the Future, which has received broad critical acclaim. People Magazine’s Chuck Arnold called it “a delightfully whimsical pop pastiche that evokes everyone from the Beach Boys and the Beatles to Prince,” and the Boston Globe hailed the release as “too wise – and too catchy – to possibly be the debut from the recent Harvard grads.”

To promote Love the Future, the duo simultaneously released a free, full-length concept album of comedy-infused hip-hop and pop music entitled Jacques Jams Vol. 1: Endurance. Overseen by renowned DJ Clinton Sparks, the album featured collaborations with Jermaine Dupri, Diddy, Pharrell, Talib Kweli, Bun B, Janelle Monae, and many others. Over 300,000 fans have downloaded Jacques Jams, available at www.ChesterFrench.com/mixtape, and publications ranging from VIBE to the New York Times have praised the project’s creativity.

Chester French rounded out 2009 with national network television performances on NBC’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!. Both appearances showcased the group’s fiery live show, as well as D.A.’s and Max’s typically unconventional sartorial stylings, which have landed the duo in GQ and Vogue.

In order to stay connected with its fans, the band has created www.ChesterFrench.com, where fans can buy music and merchandise directly from D.A. and Max. It is also the hub of their unique VIP Concierge Service, a free membership network through which Chester French provides its fans with extraordinary personal service, news, and invitations to exclusive events.

You can expect their new album in 2010 and D.A. is also embarking on a solo project in the New Year as well.

Be sure to head over to their Facebook fan page and follow them as they are quite talented and a ton of fun:http://www.facebook.com/chesterfrench

Crank it!

PS- iWorkout Muse PRO has been submitted for your review for to the Apple iTunes store so now it’s just a waiting game. But if past experience is any indicator, we expect this baby to be ready by the end of this year or early 2011… stay tuned!

Movie Trailer: 2010 Bootcamp Workout Highlight Video

Wednesday, December 15th, 2010

I got some cool new iLife ‘11 software for my mac so I put together a super dramatic movie trailer as kind of a bootcamp highlight video of 2010.

It was tough to jam several hundred people and a year’s worth of workouts into a 77 seconds, but I did my best.

Please take a minute of your day to check it out below:

If you run a boot camp or fitness business, be sure to make your own highlight video to recognize your clients and campers for all of their hard work in 2010…

It’s probably the best and most fun marketing you can do to end the year ;)

And if you want to get fit in 2011, do yourself a favor and find a local fitness bootcamp in your area that uses Workout Muse so that you have someone who knows what they’re doing to push you to the next level.
