We’ve come a long way in technology to the point where there are millions of different things one can listen to while working out. The optimal choice of what to listen to really depends on the preference of the person, but if you’re unsure what to choose, we’re here to advocate for audiobooks. If you’ve never given them a try, here’s why audiobooks are a great choice for workout entertainment.

It’ll Keep You Coming Back For More

The number one reason why audiobooks are perfect for workouts is that they’ll keep you coming back for more. Some people have a really hard time maintaining a consistent workout schedule, especially when they’re just starting out. But audiobooks can last hours, which will encourage you to return to your workout routine to finish the story.

Just imagine. You start a new audiobook and finish the first chapter just as you finish a workout. Not only do you want to work out again so that you can listen to chapter two, but you’re actually associating the audiobook with the workout. In other words, it’ll be hard to convince yourself to find the time to listen to it at some other point in your life. It’s really only the workout where it makes sense to listen to it. So you can enjoy a good story and also get fitter at the same time. Win-win!
