I listen to music whilst exercising, but not whilst I study. I think music helps with exercise because it gives you a distraction from all the work your body is doing, so you focus on the sound as opposed to your body. On the other hand, music makes it difficult to study because you actually have information to process and in this case, I find that music distracts me. I listen to really cheesy pop whilst exercising. Hope this was of some use :smile:
