This study explored the influence of self-selected music on affect-regulated exercise intensity and remembered pleasure. A total of 17 active male and female participants (28.1 ± 9.9 years; BMI 23.8 ± 3.2 kg/m2; oxygen uptake (VO2) peak 48.73 ± 8.73 ml.min−1.kg−1) completed a maximal exercise test, and each individual’s ventilatory threshold was identified. Following this, two treadmill exercise trials were performed at an intensity that was perceived to correspond to a Feeling Scale value of…

Affective responses to high-intensity interval training with continuous and respite music
TLDR
Results indicated that music did not influence affective valence during the work bouts or recovery periods of the HIIT sessions, but that listening to music continuously elicited greater post-task enjoyment and remembered pleasure.
Effects of preferred music on physiological responses, perceived exertion, and anaerobic threshold determination in an incremental running test on both sexes
TLDR
Overall, preferred music did not affect the iAT determination in an incremental running test, however, some physiological responses and perceived exertion after iAT of female subjects seems to be influenced by preferred music.
The Psychophysiological Effects of Different Tempo Music on Endurance Versus High-Intensity Performances
TLDR
It is demonstrated that the beneficial effects of music are more likely to be seen in endurance exercise than in high intensity exercise, and music may be considered an important tool to stimulate people engaging in low intensity physical exercise.
Effects of music tempo on perceived exertion, attention, affect, heart rate, and performance during isometric strength exercise
ABSTRACT This study examined the effects of slow and fast music tempi on effort-related thoughts, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), affect, heart rate, and performance during isometric strength…
The Effect of Acute Aerobic Exercise with Music on Executive Function: The Major Role of Tempo Matching
TLDR
Tempo matching is an important element for the beneficial effects of exercise with music on executive function and people could choose music in tempo which matches heart rate during exercise to get better effects both physically and psychologically.
The Effect of Moderate Intensity Aerobic Exercise on Affect and Exercise Intention in Active and Inactive College Students.
TLDR
Males reported experiencing higher levels of positive affect than females during the exercise bout, which may indicate that the males enjoyed the exercise more than females, suggesting that affect during exercise may not be a deterrent to physical activity as previously thought.
Increasing the Pleasure and Enjoyment of Exercise: A Novel Resistance-Training Protocol.
TLDR
It is suggested that decreasing RT intensity throughout an exercise bout can elicit a positive slope of pleasure and enhance affective evaluations of exercise.
The Influence of Music Preference on Exercise Responses and Performance: A Review
  • C. Ballmann
  • Psychology
    Journal of functional morphology and kinesiology
  • 2021
TLDR
Current knowledge and new evidence on how music preference factors into enhancing performance in various modes of exercise will be further discussed, incorporating practical considerations for individuals and practitioners in real-world applications to optimize performance.
Does warming up with different music tempos affect physical and psychological responses? The evidence from a chronobiological study.
TLDR
Warming-up with high music tempo for improving short-term maximal performance and psychological responses whatever the TOD, especially in the morning hours is better than warming-ups with low music tempo.
Do exercisers maximize their pleasure by default? Using prompts to enhance the affective experience of exercise.
Researchers and practitioners are increasingly recognizing the importance of maximizing pleasure during exercise in order to promote exercise behavior. Self-selected intensity exercise can increase…

Can previously sedentary females use the feeling scale to regulate exercise intensity in a gym environment? an observational study
TLDR
The data indicate that previously sedentary women can use the FS in an ecological setting to regulate their exercise intensity and that regulating intensity to feel ‘good’ should lead to individuals exercising at an intensity that would result in cardiovascular gains if maintained.
Patterning of physiological and affective responses in older active adults during a maximal graded exercise test and self-selected exercise
TLDR
Findings indicate that exercise around VT, whether administered during an exercise test, or self-selected by the participant, is likely to result in positive affective responses in older adults.

Affective Response to Exercise and Preferred Exercise Intensity Among Adolescents.
TLDR
Encouraging adolescents to exercise at an intensity that feels good may increase future exercise without sacrificing fitness.
Physiological and perceptual responses to affect-regulated exercise in healthy young women.
TLDR
Evidence is added that women can use affect to regulate intensity and exercise at an intensity that would confer fitness and health benefits if maintained and the intensity to feel "fairly good" was significantly higher than to feel 'good.
Ergogenic and psychological effects of synchronous music during circuit-type exercise
Can High-Intensity Exercise Be More Pleasant? Attentional Dissociation Using Music and Video.
TLDR
Findings indicate that attentional manipulations can exert a salient influence on affect and enjoyment even at intensities slightly above ventilatory threshold.
Effects of musical tempo on physiological, affective, and perceptual variables and performance of self-selected walking pace
TLDR
Fast music (140 beats per minute) promotes a higher rating of perceived exertion and greater performance in self-selected walking pace without significantly altering physiological variables or affective response.
Effects of Self-Selected Music on Strength, Explosiveness, and Mood
TLDR
Increased performance during an explosive exercise and an altered mood state when listening to SSM is demonstrated and might be beneficial for acute power performance.
Effects of music tempo upon submaximal cycling performance
TLDR
Healthy individuals performing submaximal exercise not only worked harder with faster music but also chose to do so and enjoyed the music more when it was played at a faster tempo.
