There’s plans by Spotify to create a function that will use information based on a sensor’s on the listener’s body or in their smartphone, to measure their heart rate and then use that to select appropriate music.

Technology, eh?

Until this comes along to revolutionise our workouts, there are already some pretty awesome apps out there to control your workout tunes.

PaceDJ monitors your running/ cycling pace and matches the tempo of the track your listening to match it.

Fitradio chooses your tracks for your workout through genre and mood, which you can change every time you hit the gym.

With all these new services, we may never be stuck running to a dud song ever again…
