Here's row2k's list of the 15 erg songs for your winter 2015-2016 erg playlist.
A couple notes on how songs were selected as this is once again, a highly subjective list:
Andy Grammer - Honey, I'm Good
"I like this one in the beginning of a sprint for me because it keeps a quick tempo for the most part and then half-way through a long piece because it reenergizes me for the tough half-way point."
-Elisa
Demi Lovato - Confident
"It's a good upbeat song to keep you going through those long erg pieces."
-Deena
Dillon Francis - Get Low
"On a low rate AT piece, when the entire erg room is going at the same rate, and this song drops the beat, the splits drop too."
-Georgie
Dorothy - Wicked Ones
"This song makes me feel so strong with every stroke and is so badass!"
-Anissa
Elle King - Ex's & Oh's
"Not sure what it is about this song, but I just love when it comes on in the erg room."
-Kevin
