One of my most frequently played workout songs is by Gym Class Heroes called "The Fighter". I religiously start out every workout with this song because it is so motivating for me. If you haven't heard this song yet, you can watch the video of it below. I am seriously obsessed with this song for so many reasons... the most obvious reason is the message. It reminds me that no matter what your struggle is.. where you came from, or how hard you have it...to just hang in there and KEEP FIGHTING.
