curtindo um som com o volume alto

A recent study shows that turning up the volume on your i-pod while you exercise pushes you to work out harder. When women listened to their favorite workout songs at four different volumes, they worked harder when the music was the loudest. Researchers believe that this is kind of like the flight-or-fight response. The brain thinks the loud music is a threat, so it responds by increasing adrenaline levels in the blood, which then sends more glucose to the muscles, giving them more fuel during an intense exercise session.
