Hello, CBK readers!
If you haven’t noticed, summer is upon us. If you really haven’t noticed, go outside. Please.
For you kids/adults/people with free time (like myself) use that time to DO things! Not just sit around and scroll through Reddit like I do. Read a book! Watch a TV show on Netflix!! Listen to new music! Start a blog! Exercise– well wait a second now… Exercise? Yeah man. Exercise. It’s good for you.
Okay, well I’m doing that whole exercising thing too and I thought I’d share my EXERCISE playlist with you because it surely gets me motivated when I’m working out. So if you’re struggling to find some musical motivation to rip you off that couch of yours, here’s a list!
I’ll be separating the tracks into categories, along with providing download links when I can. I also might make a Spotify playlist. Howabout that? Technology!

Now as you can see, most of these songs came from either this year or the year before. I’m not covering a lot of ground in terms of motivating music history, so if YOU have some great songs that get your muscles swollen (in a good way, any other way would be kinda gross) post em! I always enjoy hearing new music, so some invigorating tunes would be much appreciated!
Have a motivating day!
