Great collection, great sound quality, and great lyrics! I would recommend this CD to anyone who knows the meaning of the word, "Hooah!" Excellent to listen to while running, a wonderful motivator.

As a student, I listen to this CD while I study and work on the computer. The lyrics and the energy behind them are really motivating and never get boring. In response to people's comments about sound quality, these are field recordings which give you the effect of standing at an intersection through which different troupes are running. Sometimes you hear different groups chanting at once as they pass each other, and you hear the roughness of people's voices under physical exertion. Like sea shanties and chain-gang songs, cadences are work songs and should not be treated as performance music. This CD sounds just like what I heard as a child growing up on Army bases.

This CD is wonderful for those who need that little extra push to keep going on those long runs. I am a soldier in the US Army and I listen to this CD when i am running and training on my own outside of unit PT. I would recommend this CD to anyone who is wanting a little extra umph added to their jogging. Cadences are authentic and fun motivation.

Great collection of some of the best cadences in the Army. I use this to wake up in the mornings on my CD player-clock, and it gets me out of bed. Great for listening to while running; pure motivation. Perfect to learn new cadences if you are in JROTC. Slight profanity is used, but nothing extreme. I highly recommend this CD.

I have never been in the military and I am not a natural when it comes to running. Faced with an upcoming law enforcement academy I decided to give it a try. This cd was extremely helpful in teaching me to keep a pace. It is motivating and to those of us who are not familiar with some of the lyrics...you can't help but smile a time or two, and smiling can only help a run. Caution: I do find myself humming some of the songs while I am not running!

If you enjoy running to cadence, this is a good buy, They are easy to understand and help get you pumped up for a good run. The cadences don't flow from one to the next as smoothly as I would like but still rythmic. A good buy.

I'm wicked out of shape and can barely run a mile, but this cd is great for making sure I keep pace and don't quit early. Downsides are the poor mixing between tracks. At a couple points in the cd, you have to adjust your step a little because the mixing is off a fraction of a second. Nothing major, so overall I say this is a good exercise cd to go with.

My father was an Army Veteran and member of the Reserves. He passed away several years ago and this CD reminds me happily of him. When I was a kid, he played the cassette tapes while we took trips in the family car! I was the only girl and didn't appreciate it at the time (as you might imagine) but now, I use the CD for when I go running. I find that it helps me keep my focus on energy rather than my fatigue. I recommend it!

Fun to run with. Keeps a good cadence except for transitions in between songs. If resorts back to the ranger song every time. That part gets old but the rest of the CD is awesome.

My son uses these CD's to stay motivated while working out- I have to say, they seem to do the trick- but it's funny that sometimes at the grocery I find myself humming some of the tracks...
