If you were to make an educated guess, you could probably wager that the sort of music that a professional athlete listens to is something high-tempo, motivating and gets the blood pumping. Basically 'Eye of the Tiger' on repeat, in other words.

Electric Ireland are sponsoring Team Ireland as they head to the Olympics in Rio, and they've enlisted four athletes - Paddy Barnes (Boxing), Sinéad Jennings (Rowing), Fiona Doyle (Swimming) & Kieran Behan (Gymnastics) - to compile Spotify playlists of their favourite music as part of their #ThePowerWithin campaign.
There are some interesting choices in there - such as Barnes's love of Kylie over the Rocky soundtrack, for starters.
Hear each athlete's playlist below:
