Does listening to music help your workout?

This is a question that’s not totally straightforward to answer.  It’s a good question for a subject-matter expert to answer.  Music can help the mood of exercise, especially in physical activity where a goal is being accomplished, which may motivate the individual.  But if you have an audio track that is forcing you to move, or moving you too quickly, it may end up hindering you more than helping.

So it may be helpful but it may hurt you?
user
Yeah, that’s the caveat.  It can help, but if it’s too extreme it can actually hurt the exercise you’re trying to do.

So should I listen to music you think or not?
