Read this before you queue up your Spotify tunes for your next run.
There are two ways of listening to music during exercise. Asynchronous application is when you put it on in the background but don't consciously match your movements to the beat. This can act as a distraction, and during easy and moderate intensity workouts, it can help you exercise for longer before feeling tired.Synchronized application is when we use the music as a pulse or metronome.
For example, many people try to reach 180 strides per minute during a fast running session because it's thought to be the optimal cadence. This would mean listening to tunes with 180 bpm. But just be aware that when you work at very high intensity it may be better to listen to nothing at all.
