Fitness 3

OK, sweat monkeys, it's time for another round of pulse-pushing, cardio-centric workout tunes, so strap on your gym kit and hit the treadmill running with Madge and Timbo, who have only "4 Minutes" to save the world . . . more than enough time raise your heartbeats-per-minute to a respectable level. Backup comes from Utah Saints, with their '08 remix of the classic Kate Bush sampler "Something Good" and those unstoppable Ting Tings ("Great DJ").

There's some rock to help you run, in Next Steps

For those of you who like to tool up with an iPod, hit the open road, and crank up the rock, we've supplied generous blasts of motivation from R.E.M., whose "Living Well Is the Best Revenge" opened up 2008's Accelerate in thunderous style, and Foo Fighters: "Cheer Up, Boys (Your Make Up Is Running)" will have your legs pumping like steel pistons. And when Fatboy Slim gets his hands on Jim Noir's "Eanie Meany" you have no choice but to keep pace.

No slackers here — take it up to the next level with Deep Cuts.

Just when you thought it was time for a cool-down, here comes another unmissable lesson in dance-floor drill instruction, led by Midfield General and the commanding "Disco Sirens". To keep you in line and right up with the tempo, we've also recruited the services of Celeda (Tracy Young's club mix of the '08 dance-chart-topper "Amazing"), Faithless ("God Is a DJ"), bpm-crunching Groovestylerz ("Prove Your Love"), and DJ Funsko ("For the Love of Disco House").

Fitness is all about repetition — endless sets of exercises undertaken to produce the snare drum that is your abdomen and the rock-solid teak you now call biceps — so it makes sense to vary the soundtrack as often as possible. This third instalment of exercise tunes will see you right from treadmill to open road, from free-weight rack to jogging track, and sets a pace you'll feel compelled to match. Some people warm to the encouragements of an instructor, but we prefer to take our orders from Robyn ("Who's That Girl?"), Kylie ("In My Arms"), Mariah Carey ("Touch My Body"), and an assortment of Nightcrawlers, Shapeshifters, and Furry Phreaks.
