From Beginners….To Intermediate…..To Advance Riders. Our instructors truly understand it’s your ride and your journey.
Imagine a whole bunch of Spinning bikes lined up inside our Gables Fitness Facility. Riders are on each one, spinning the pedals at a rapid pace. The lights are turned down, pumped up music fills the air and an instructor with a headset sits atop a lead bike, calling out commands.
“Climb out of the saddle,” he/she barks at the class. “Big hill coming!”
The riders rise as one, pedals spinning faster as they grimace with exertion, sweat dripping off their bodies.
What you’re witnessing is a spinning class, a workout option available at Gables Fitness . The classes are lead by instructors who normally guide participants through a series of phases, from warm-up to more challenging phases, to a period of peak effort followed by a cool down.
In spinning classes, the intensity of the workout is influenced by a couple of things:
- Cadence, or pedal rate.
- Resistance of the bike’s flywheel, which can be continually adjusted throughout the class to make pedaling easier or more difficult.
- By the rider’s body position, as they either pedal from a seated position or rise from the saddle.
Ultimately participants determine their own levels of exertion, something that works better for some folks than others.
But a good instructor can certainly encourage and motivate you to push yourself, and you’ll most likely find spinning to be a vigorous workout. It’s a great way to stay in shape.
Every class is a little different, but one of the great things about the Spinning program is that it is adaptable to your fitness level. Remember that there’s no competition. Listen to your body and adjust the resistance on your bike accordingly.
