aloneGosuperāzu
It’s a ballad by The Gospellers that conveys a gentle, compassionate presence—one that supports and sustains the motivation of someone quietly enduring loneliness while striving for muscle pump-up.
Because the song is composed solely of vocals, the lyrics come through directly, allowing you to comfort yourself as you persist in your training.
I love it!Hirosue Ryōko
This is a song by Ryoko Hirosue, who holds a pioneering position among cute idols, that gives you energy.
Even in strength training—which can easily feel isolating—you can work out without feeling lonely, as if a cute woman were cheering you on right by your ear.

A track that brilliantly fuses an energetic, uplifting ska sound with rock! Born from a powerful collaboration between MAN WITH A MISSION and Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, this song was released in February 2018 and saw extensive use across various media.
It was featured as the opening theme for TV Tokyo’s drama “MASKMEN” and as the official theme song for the Super Rugby team Sunwolves, generating significant buzz.
Its driving rhythm and powerful sound are sure to maximize your motivation during training.

A powerful track by [Alexandros] that rides a driving, exhilarating rock sound with a message of courage and challenge in pursuit of your dreams.
It vividly expresses the determination to push forward on the path you believe in, as well as the desire to connect with people’s hearts through music.
Released in March 2015, the song was chosen as the theme for the film “Akegarasu” and the ending theme for the TV program “Sakigake! Ongaku Banzuke ~EIGHT~,” and surpassed 100 million views on YouTube in August 2019.
It’s recommended not only when you need courage to move toward your dreams, but also as a boost to your motivation during workouts or strength training.
SatisfactionBenny Benassi
Satisfaction by Italian DJ Benny Benassi, which became a worldwide hit in 2002.
It’s immersive house music, reminiscent of Daft Punk’s Technologic.
Listening now, the melody feels like a forerunner of EDM.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to jump straight into focus mode.
Shape of YouEd Sheeran
Ed Sheeran’s mega-hit “Shape of You.” Since it was a worldwide smash, many of you probably know it.
While it has great rhythm, the melody isn’t particularly powerful, so it’s better suited for stretching or running than for hard workouts.
Head-on Showdown (feat. MC☆Nigari a.k.a. Red Lightning)KEN THE 390
Makkō Shōbu (feat.
MC☆Nigari a.k.a.
Red Lightning) stands out with its unique lineup.
It’s refreshing to see KOPERU from Umeda Cypher alongside Shinpeita and KEN THE 390.
As the title suggests, the track is crafted to be quite powerful.
CHICO CARLITO’s verse is highly recommended for its outstanding flow.
