Spinning in the Loft

I've never taken a Spinning class before. What should I expect?

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.

If you're a first timer let your instructor know. He or she can make sure your bike is properly adjusted [Adobe PDF] and give you a rundown on the Spinning program's five core movements [Adobe PDF] and program fundamentals like heart rate training that will help you burn more calories, increase your strength and improve your overall fitness.

Do I have to be in great shape to participate in a Spinning class?

Anyone can benefit from the Spinning program. And because you can go at your own pace by controlling the resistance on your Spinner® bike, taking Spinning classes is a great way to get fit.

What makes Spinning class different from other group exercise classes?

Top-notch instructors, invigorating music and visualization come together to make Spinning class both fun and effective. If you've ever left a group exercise class feeling frustrated, you'll appreciate that there are no complicated moves to learn with the Spinning program. Regardless of how fit, flexible or coordinated you are, you'll get a great workout. Simply hop on your bike, set the resistance to the level that's right for you, and let your instructor guide you through an incredible ride
