Energetic Inspiration

Professional trainer Ron Mathews and actor Lauren Graham have spent many hours training together in the gym over the past two years. Music is a key element for the duo, as it fuels their workout sessions. “Lauren and I prefer rock ’n’ roll and rap for more intense training like leg work, jumping moves and plyometrics,” says Mathews. The following up-tempo tunes also “inspire us to push hard when we lift weights.” (When they do cardio, they prefer more mellow music.) To read more about Graham and the training program Mathews created for her, see VIVmag’s September/October 2007 issue.
