"Indoor cycling provides an insane workout while being gentle on the joints. This is especially great for people who have sore knees or achy backs from pounding the pavement or treadmill too hard. Because of the varying intensity levels throughout class, indoor cycling provides a great cardio workout, as well as a number of benefits such as strength training.
What Happens In A Group Cycling Class"Your instructor will keep you and your muscles fully engaged the entire class. Expect a mix of climbing hills, sprinting, sanding, and flat rides. By changing up the pace and intensity, your instructor will make sure you get an amazing workout. On average, an hour-long spin class can burn up to 500 to 1000 calories!"
What To Bring "Water- you are going to sweat! Keep those fluids up Towel/ blue roll- did I mention you are going to sweat? Shorts/ leggings- so as not to catch in the pedals Positive Mental Attitude – as much as it can seem daunting…you never know you may like it once youre in there, and might end up eyeing up a new set of padded shorts and cycle shoes before you know it!" What To Eat "I recommend hydrating and eating a light snack about 30 minutes before class. This will give you fuel, but won't upset your stomach during the class. Sip plenty of water before and during the class to ensure you stay well hydrated."
