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.

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.

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.

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”

_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” 😉

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 😉
