CYCLE YOUR WAY TO FITNESS! SPINNING®, THE LATEST FITNESS TREND
by John Harris Fitness
Looking for a collective sweat session fueled by music and guided by the "lead rider," the instructor? Indoor cycling experienced a definite boom in Austria last year. But it's not just Austria; globally, it's one of the most popular group workouts. One of the most famous studios is "SoulCycle" in America, which played a significant role in this trend. We also offer indoor cycling classes in our studios – basic courses to learn the fundamentals and techniques, and advanced courses focusing on intensity and endurance.
Effective Fat Burner
Indoor cycling ranks among the most effective fat-burning workouts. In just 45 minutes, you can torch around 450 to 540 calories on average. It's not just about pedaling; your upper body gets a workout too. With push-ups, tapbacks, and light weights, you engage your arms and shoulders while cycling. Be prepared to break a sweat!
In Spinning® classes, music plays a vital role. The rhythm influences your pace, pushing you harder and guiding you to a cool down. Music shifts the focus from the effort, allowing you to give your all. However, a word of caution – spurred by fellow riders and the music, it's easy to push beyond your limits, leading to exhaustion halfway through. It's better to start steady and gradually increase intensity. With all the sweating, remember to carry water and stay hydrated. Following these tips, a successful indoor cycling session is within reach.

Advantages
One of the greatest benefits of indoor cycling is its inclusivity. Since you can adjust the bike's resistance individually, cycling is suitable for athletes of all levels. It's not just about leg strength; it also engages your core. It's even perfect for those who can't run due to injuries, as it's joint-friendly.
