I play tennis for my school and my coach always complains that i have a lack of energy out ther. Im wondering if any1 could recommend an artist that pumps you up. I usually just listen to some rap or rock (right now the song i listen 2 b4 every game is “We Fly High”). If thers nething ne1 could recommend it would be greatly appreciated. 
When I played football I found it best to meditate in an agressive mannor. Instead of being tranquil, meditate on your game plan, concentrate on your dislike of the competiton and your glorious victory resulting in their shameful defeat.
That worked best for me. Oh add in one massive energy drink just prior to game time. You will be raging. Screw music, it’s to distracting.
Mediation is the way.
Balllllllin!!!
Alice in Chains (the heavier stuff, not acoustic) worked for me when I played baseball, as far as tennis though…who knows, give it a shot.
depends on your temperment.
pump you up = feeling positive
or
pump you up = hyper
at 2 a.m. all the resteraunts and clubs had to close on this VERY busy road. my bar was literally on the county line, we stayed open an extra hour.
for one hour, 300 people came running in the door every morning for an hour of last call.
i needed to get “pumped up” to be the fastest drink slinger around.
juke was set to play
STATIC X
ROB ZOMBIE
RAGE AGAINST THE MACINE
SLIPKNOT
whatever kept the momentum.
lol thanks for all the suggestions. lor i listen to rage b4 i play sometimes and i like their music.. i havent reallly listend or liked slip and rob but ill also try some meditaion.. who knows lol
yeah you seem too nice for the music i listen to.
it might (ok forget might) have political leanings and anger management issues, but when i listen to some of that stuff i can acomplish alot 
plus i think anything that speaks to you as a person will pump you up.
Yeah, RATM will definitely pump you up, also Tool is pretty good at it IMO (hence the avatar).

Tool is one the best bands OF ALL TIME.
your too cute.
anymore “mugshots” for the yearbook?
acdc is the best, good suggestion
Also check out some of Anthony Robbins’ books - he “life coached” Andre Aggasi when he went from 30 to number 1 in the world in late 1994 to mid 1995.

Lor,
Did my mugshot actually come out? I couldn’t seem to get it loaded up…??
Do you know those songs by Toto, Johnnie Clegg and Eddie Grant? Don’t know if they’re known in America but all three are South African classics and are big “sports hits”
Matt
nah sorry never heard of em but im not a big classics/oldies guy either
absolutely,my friend.
know them well.
like i said,
some people get pumped with life-affirming lyrics.
some go for the beat of the music.
some go for testosterone-raisers. uh thats me.
ACDC although great choice, is also “oldies/classics” 
lol u got me
Personally, I love reggaeton (spanish rap/hip-hop).
I was introduced to this by a friend just last may and have been listening to it ever since. Everytime its played at a club/party and I hear it I go crazy… so do all the girls (although all that’s played is what mainstreamed in america- daddy yankee and pitbull)…
I love it…
Also,
I was in a club over winterbreak in Acapulco and DJ Tiesto (world’s #1 DJ) performed… if you like trance listen to his songs and his megamixes (download the concerts he’s given around the world)… I’m not much into trance but his shit get’s me going
Soca music or Zook.
Ahh the islands!
