Top 10 Workout Songs of 2011

I haven’t listened to much new music this year, which has meant I haven’t been able to put together a list of my top 10 workout songs to share with you. However, my colleague Holly McDonald, a wonderful personal trainer and the other half of Thrive Personal Training, has listened to a great deal of new music. Below is a guest blog post from Holly, sharing her top 10 workout songs of 2011.
