High-tempo music — the type that equates to about 170 heartbeats per minute — reduces perceived effort and boosts cardiovascular benefits more than lower tempos, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology
Whether it's Beyonce's"Naughty Girl," Taylor Swift's"Untouchable" or Eminem's"Lose Yourself" that inspires you to work out harder, everyone knows that listening to tunes during exercise is a proven way to boost your workout performance and duration.
The faster the better, right? High-tempo music -- the type that equates to about 170 heartbeats per minute -- reduces perceived effort and boosts cardiovascular benefits more than lower tempos, according to a new study published Sunday in the journal Frontiers in Psychology.
The study found the effects were greatest for endurance exercise, such as brisk walking, running, biking and swimming, than for high-intensity exercises such as weightlifting, jump roping, speed walking and high intensity interval training.The results appear to echo the results of a 2011 study, which found preference for a very fast tempo of music increased as the intensity of the exercise -- in this case cycling -- increased.
