This week, we’re turning the tempo way up with a punk rock workout playlist built for maximum intensity. Joined by Patreon Mixtaper Tom Hutchinson, we’re cranking through 20 high-energy punk rock songs designed to keep you moving — whether you’re lifting heavy, running hard, cycling, or just trying to survive that last brutal set.

From blistering tempos and shout-along choruses to relentless drums and no-frills riffs, these tracks were made for motion. Punk rock has always thrived on urgency, and that same urgency makes it the perfect soundtrack for pushing through fatigue, staying focused, and finishing strong.

We talk about what makes a great workout song, why punk’s speed and aggression translate so well to exercise playlists, and the tracks we personally reach for when motivation starts slipping.

No ballads. No cooldowns. Just fast, loud, and unapologetic energy from start to finish This episode doesn’t believe in rest days.
