5.2 MUSIC

MUSIC IN EVERYDAY LIFE

Music is present in every part of our lives. Research suggests music can influence us a lot. It can impact illness, depression, spending, productivity and our perception of the world.

Music in fitness centres

Pleasant music in gyms creates a motivating atmosphere when customers enter and has a lot of benefits for those doing exercise, reducing the feeling of tiredness, allowing gym goers to train harder for a longer time. High tempo music increases the heart rate which helps prepare your body for exercise, and the rhythms of music help with muscle coordination, so reducing the risk of injury.
