The JogTunes Indie Podcast is a 30 to 60 minute podcast that's meant to be “run to.” By that we mean it’s intended to be listened to while you’re running.

Well, that was the original intent. Turns out, most indoor cyclist, aquarunners, users of stairmasters, ellipticals and mini-trampolines, and even swimmers, may find these shows great for working out exactly to the tempos of indie music.

The songs are selected and sequenced solely for working out exactly to the beat of the music. The shows begin with a brief introduction and a warm-up tune usually in the 110-130 BPM range. This is followed by a series of tunes that begins in the 140-150 range and usually peaks with tunes in the BPM range of 170-185. The sequence slows back down to a cool-down in the 110-130 range.

Some episodes may have a "sprint segment" which follows a cool-down tune at around 15 minutes toward the end of the episode. This segment is a short, fast set that ends with a final cool-down track. Some users may need to keep their workout short and stop with the first cool-down while others may want to complete the full episode.

Dr. Bob, the founder of JogTunes.com, is the producer and host. He provides introductions to the songs along with the BPM details.

The indie artists' tunes come from many resources. The main, podsafe, tune-download resources are the Podsafe Music Network (PMN) and the Independent Online Distribution Alliance (IODA)'s promonet. Dr. Bob finds many bands and tunes from other podcasters' shows. Listings of these shows can be found on sites such as The Alliance for Music Podcasting, blubrry.com, Podshow.com, and, of course, the iTunes Music Store. There are also many websites that are dedicated to indie music and provide lists of bands and their works. Finally, many of the bands have promoters who announce new tunes and albums by email. This is a great way to come across some fine indie music.

In response to listener requests, this episode is a single-range, single-genre BPM workout. All of the tracks are rock tunes in the 150 to 159 BPM range. Feel free to use it alone, in tandem with sessions in other ranges, or as a part of a BPM sequenced workout of your own design. I’m eager to learn whether this format is helpful to paced exercisers. Please send your comments to comments at jogtunes.com.

All of the tracks are encores of tunes I’ve enjoyed playing and running to in the past.
