Say "Bye Bye Bye" to Boring Workouts With This Dance-Around-Your-Bedroom Boy Band Playlist

Like many people, I grew up unabashedly listening to boy bands. Sure, I had a life-size cardboard cutout of Justin Bieber in the room I shared with my sister, but I loved pop groups, too, like One Direction (RIP), Jonas Brothers (welcome back!), and NSYNC (Did I kiss Justin Timberlake goodbye before school every morning in the third grade? Yes, yes I did).

Ahead, check out a boy band playlist that'll have you bopping to the beat during your treadmill run, strength-training session, or HIIT workout. Included are some personal favorites from my teens (hits like "What Makes You Beautiful" and "Year 3000"), plus some newer gems courtesy of BTS and more. And you know we couldn't leave out the Backstreet Boys! You'll find the full playlist below, and a YouTube video for every song. If you like this compilation, you'll also want to check out our BTS running playlist and these early 2000s pop songs for your workout pleasure.
