Does anyone have any ideas? Here are some artists that really get me going (lol don't laugh I'm only 20 and I'm in college, so my taste is probably really different, but feel free to add anything you find upbeat and easy to work out to):

Justin Bieber - my #1 workout music, LOVE LOVE LOVE

B.o.B

Lady Gaga (sometimes)

Miley Cyrus

Young Money (sometimes)

Nikki Manaj

Usher (some upbeat stuff like "OMG" and others)

Sean Kingston (sometimes)

Jason Derulo

definitely "You're a Jerk (remix)" by New Boyz

if you guys can give me any suggestions - doesn't matter if it's the same type of music or not - definitely reply to the post!
