The only time I ever listened to music while working out was long steady sessions on the treadmill/erg/stair climber/stationary bike.
I had a set of live George Clinton/Parliament songs I would listen two. Hard pumping beat for 20 minutes or so per song.
I would literally zone out on cardio machines. I could never do that out running/riding on streets or trails because you have to be aware of what is going on around you. But I would get completely hypnotized on machines. I could run 7 miles in an hour on a treadmill but I could not do anything close to that out on streets or trails.
I also felt like treadmills had more bounce and were easier on your joints than running on streets or sidewalks. And there was no pounding at all on the bike, stair climber, or erg.
