Answer
Here's my personal list for indoor work. You may not like the songs / artists but you'll get the idea so you can build your own.
Warm up a bit first.
1. George Thorogood - Who do you love 5:42
- warm up - spin at beat pace in an easy gear. focus on quick spin smooth breathing light effort. Shift up 1 towards the end.
(get a drink / spin easy in the few seconds between songs)
2. Lenny Kravitz - are you gonna go my way 3:36
- hit the big ring, turn over at medium cadence to match the beat. Don't overdo it early.
(get a drink / spin easy between songs)
3. James Brown - Super Bad. 3:03
- get your pulse up high and steady. pick a fast cadence, put some effort to it
- when JB screams and the sax solo kicks in, about :30 to go, sprint.
(get a drink / spin easy between songs)
4. Chef (aka Isaac Hayes) - No substitute 3:39
rest. spin slow and easy. catch your breath, loosen up a bit
5. The B-52s - Good Stuff 5:49
Time trial. Turn a medium fast cadence in a big gear. This one's gonna hurt but bring it on gradually.
(get a drink / spin easy between songs)
6. James Brown - Get Up 5:08
Hit the big meat. Big ring, top gear, low cadence. Keep the pedals turning to match the beat without downshifting. Listen for JB's opinion of your performance at :28 to go
7. Merle Haggard - Swinging Doors 2:55
rest. you're gonna need it. pedal slow and easy, sit up and sing along.
8. Etta James - What'd I say 3:20
fast cadence drills. easy gear. spin it really fast. Sprint during the chorus.
(get a drink / spin easy between songs)
9. Jamiroquai - Use the force 4:05
Time trial. Turn a medium fast cadence in a big gear. This one's gonna hurt but bring it on gradually.
10. Ray Charles - Night time is the right time 3:30
rest.
11. REM - Star 69 3:13
HAUL ASS !!! big meat go as fast as you can and don't wuss out
(get a drink / spin easy between songs)
12. the B-52's - Bush Fire 5:01
ease into this one. when you hear the words "bush fire" kick it up a notch. repeat. your pick or gear and cadence
13. James Brown - Lickin Stick Lickin Stick 2:53
rest relax easy
14.Van Halen - Ice Cream Man 3:24
Start in your lowest/easiest gear. Every time Dave says "ice cream man" upshift 1. You'll finish in your top gear, try to keep the pedals turning at a respectable pace. Save a bit for the end, because Eddy's guitar solo is kinda long.
(get a drink / spin easy between songs)
15. Elvis Costello - what's so funny bout peace love and understanding 3:36
pick a nice moderate tempo, keep it brisk.
16. Etta James - At Last 3:07
"at last my workout's done" ... wrong. But do take it easy and recover.
17. the B-52s - Love Shack 5:26
Time trial. Turn a medium fast cadence in a big gear. This one's gonna hurt but bring it on gradually.
18. Jerry Lee Lewis - Big Bum Baby 1:45
Leg speed - spin fast in an easy gear.
19. Ray Charles - Sticks and stones 2:20
Leg speed - spin fast in an easy gear. A bit harder than the previous
20. Jerry Lee Lewis - big legged woman - 2:29
rest
21. Lenny Kravitz - It ain't over till it's over - 4:03
rest easy, finish the song out
