    Your go to song for squats and deads

    I'm looking for your go to song when preparing to get under the bar for your heaviest set of squats or get ready to pull your heaviest set of deads.

    I listen to mostly Rock/Rap in the gym, but open to all suggestions.

    Thanks for that, I just listened. I haven't heard much of their new stuff. Try Trashed and Scattered by them, I forgot to list that in my top ones. That song is glorious. Also try Critical Acclaim by them.

    Relying on "Must-have music" to lift is for mental midgets.

    Go lift the weight.

    Debt Ceiling? Let's say, you come home from work and find there has been a sewer backup in your neighborhood.
    And your home has sewage all the way up to your ceilings.

    What do you think you should do? Raise the ceilings, or pump out the shit?

    Good god Fear Factory "Zero Signal" fires me the fuck up.

    I know elilliebridge has that song playing in a ton of his videos. It is one of those songs I save only for PR attempts.

    Lots of those types here anymore...

    I like your "Hooker With a Penis" suggestion. When I listen to that song I can't help but giggle. Not really my type of Tool song if I had to pick one to smash weight!!

    Stay calm, people.
    Debt Ceiling? Let's say, you come home from work and find there has been a sewer backup in your neighborhood.
    And your home has sewage all the way up to your ceilings.

    What do you think you should do? Raise the ceilings, or pump out the shit?
