Schwinn Spinning
This stationary bike workout, first introduced by West Coast endurance cyclist Johnny Goldberg in the late 1980's, is now one of our most popular features. A typical class consists of a specially trained instructor who physically and verbally guides cyclists on stationary bikes through a tough 45-minute routine.
During the workout the instructor leads speed sessions, hill ascents and other peddling routines set to variable resistant levels. Hydration - The most important fuel in a spinning class is water. Body temperature changes are significant indoors. The body is not aided by convection cooling (air flow over the body) so sweat stays on the surface of the skin creating a "sauna-like" environment. The body's need for proper hydration becomes paramount.

Spinning


It is recommended that every participant in spinning class sip cool water every five minutes, consuming a minimum of 16 ozs. of water by the end of each 40 minutes class.

* Bring your walkman.
