Open Access Graduate Research Paper

Abstract

This review of literature summarizes findings from 1989-2009 regarding the effects of the inclusion of music during exercise. A few articles included were beyond the 20-year period because the information proved to be relevant and beneficial to this review of literature. The purpose of this paper is to answer the following questions: (1) Why does music affect exercise? (2) How should music be selected in order to gain the most ergogenic potential? (3) Do synchronous and asynchronous movement to music result in similar exercise responses? (4) What is the effect of music on aerobic and anaerobic exercise? (5) What is the psychological effect of music on exercise? Implications for practice and future research are presented.
