Val Desjardins: Music That Moves Me

It makes sense that fitness coach Val Desjardins once owned a nightclub in Montreal—music is a signature part of everything she does. Her Music That Moves Me playlist is “intentionally designed to fuel the most cathartic training session,” she tells Apple Music. “An initial selection of motivating hip-hop warm-up songs leads us into the foundation of the workout. Energizing EDM beats follow the intensity, laying the groundwork for a heart-pumping set. The peak is then followed by slow acoustic cover songs, which open the heart, still the mind, and allow our nervous system to regulate and absorb our efforts.” Supercharge your next workout with her exclusive playlist, which includes high-energy rap from JAY-Z and Lil Wayne as well as subdued tunes from Christine and the Queens and Cat Power.
