Gym music falls into four sacred archetypes.
The set is over. You rack the weight. You step back, gasping, as the sweat drips off your chin. The music is still thumping—some anonymous electronic beat—but you no longer hear it. In the vacuum of your own heavy breathing and the ringing in your ears, there is silence. That silence is the reward. The music got you to the edge; the silence is the view from the cliff.
And then, there is the quiet moment.
