Indoor Training Youtube Playlists

I decided to create a Youtube channel with music video playlists  that match a target cadence range. 

 

I really like to train with music, and having music videos to watch adds a really nice distraction factor if you are putting in the hours.  So far I have created 3 playlists of music videos with a cadence of between 80 and 110, mostly around the 95 mark. (look out for the lists with "Cadence" in the name).

 

I appeal to hubbers to help build this out into an ever growing body of playlists, for those of you that think this makes sense (does it, by the way?).  We can make a HubMix range if there is sufficient interest

 

To figure out the cadence, there are a number of free apps for IOS and Android - just search under "BPM" in the app stores.  They are simple apps - you tap on the phone in time with the beat and it gives you an average beats per minute.

 

I plan to add more playlists over time (including some rock and hard rock lists), but any ideas from hubbers such as song suggestions with links to the YouTube videos would be appreciated.  Please stick to officially loaded videos, as these are higher quality (I avoid bootleg live recordings as these  get taken down by copyright infringement bots, and are often poor quality).  It shrinks the list of possible songs, but there are still loads out there.  The challenge is finding songs in the cadence range - bit of a mission.  Takes a lot of taps!

I finally figured this in my spin session yesterday...the cadence matches the beat, and the instructor waits till the beat drops to get us to stand and pedal our asses off...It works for me, as the IDT's have no electronic aids.

Its really nice to match your cadence to the beat, but not many spin instructors get this.
