Manowar and Sabaton are the highest tier on par with Maiden.
Others, depends what you like. Rammstein, Hammertall, Amon Amarth, Majesty (I only listen to one song "Freedom Heart"), Nonpoint, Bullet for My Valentine are all different flavours of what you described.

BFG division from the DOOM soundtrack my man. I mean, it just gets me going. Also, shit movie, but legit good song for cardio : youtube.com/watch?v=e2LLS33eQvk
Testament - The Legacy. youtube.com/watch?v=-rQTsJH1l50 Check out the next three next albums if you like it, I never really listened to much more from them.
Sodom - Persecution Mania or Agent Orange. youtube.com/watch?v=RR_Fq9MYaXI I prefer their proto-black/speed metal albums In the Sign of Evil/Obsessed by Cruelty, but they're not as accessible.
Kreator - Pleasure to Kill youtube.com/watch?v=JF0WduFBC68 Kreator - Coma of Souls youtube.com/watch?v=uub0ZEL92M0 The first one is really aggressive and rough, some call it proto-death metal. The second one is more "normal", modern and polished. Depending on which one you like more you can kind of decide if you want to explore the genre in either direction.
So, back in 2014 when I started lifting I was listening to some very hyping techno/EDM/trance-drummy sort of song which had length more than 4 minutes. It was maybe more than 5, but I don't remember.
It's been stuck in my head for months now, I don't know what to search since it has no lyrics.
The only thing I remember is I saw it posted on Veeky Forums e years ago as the OP in a thread like this, and pic related was the image used. It got 3 replies or so. If by any minor chance some dude recognises this, it'd be much appreciated.
The youtube was a logo of red letters on a white background, so if someone knows artist names that fit that description, please let me know.
