This month's top 10 draws heavily from the Top 40. Accordingly, it's heavy on pop tunes--albeit from a variety of genres. Gym favorites Nicki Minaj and Chris Brown have provided the club music. Train and Carrie Underwood brought the rock and country, respectively. Karmin and Ellie Goulding took the remix route. Finally, the month's two highest-ranking tracks came courtesy of a pair of newcomers -- Outasight and Havana Brown.

Here's the full list, according to a poll on Run Hundred -- the web's most popular workout music blog.

  • Nicki Minaj -- "Pound the Alarm" -- 125 BPM
  • Chris Brown -- "Don't Wake Me Up" -- 128 BPM
  • Carrie Underwood -- "Blown Away" -- 138 BPM
  • Outasight -- "Now or Never" -- 126 BPM
  • Rihanna -- "Where Have You Been" (Vice Club Mix) -- 127 BPM
  • Train -- "50 Ways to Say Goodbye" -- 139 BPM
  • Karmin -- "Brokenhearted" (Razor N Guido Remix) -- 128 BPM
  • Havana Brown & Pitbull -- "We Run the Night" -- 136 BPM
  • David Guetta & Usher -- "Without You" (R3HAB's XS Remix) -- 128 BPM
  • Ellie Goulding -- "Lights" (MK Charlee Dub) -- 125 BPM

Sweet picks Chris! Keep these top 10's coming! I've been especially enjoying "We Run the Night" by Havana Brown. Great for cycling!

I just found a pretty cool rap workout songs playlist. Many songs are aggressive but I enjoy a more aggressive style during weight lifting sessions.

Here's the list.
