I absolutely love teaching & doing spin classes. I did my first class in 1994 & became addicted very quickly. I qualified & started teaching in 2008 & now we have our own top notch bikes at First Place Fitness in Kendal. They have hefty resistance & can connect to your tech making rides trackable to measure success.
1-Spin Class Reduces Fat From Your Midsection…
How & in what timeframe?
A recent 2022 study showed that in just 8 weeks, exercisers doing spin 3 times a week managed to cut an average of 3cm from their waistline, & they also reduced their body fat by 13.6%. Taken from visceral fat which is the dangerously stored fat around organs.
2-Big Benefits for Core & Posture…
How spin develops greater core strength & better posture?
Your core stays actively engaged through the full class. Overtime this leads to improved posture as the spinal erectors, rhomboids & muscles become stronger, which leads to greater spinal extension which helps lessen bad posture in everyday life.
3-Indoor Group Cycling Improves Mental Health..
Brain, Chemicals & Togetherness-how it works?
Endorphins are immediately triggered. Dopamine is released when you have the satisfaction of reaching short term goals. Serotonin is another chemical created when you push out of your comfort zone & overcome personal barriers. The “Kohler Effect” when a group member performs better in a group than on their own based on past performance. You are more likely to push yourself when working alongside people of different abilities, releasing the feel-good hormone oxytocin & getting a feeling of camaraderie all boost mental health & emotional wellbeing.
4- Spin Classes Immense Cardio Heart Health Benefits…
What happens to make cycling get you fit fast?
The intensity of a spin class makes your heart, lungs & circulatory system work hard. This can lead to a long-term reduction in your resting heart rate & an increased aerobic capacity.
You will also be able to normalise & maintain your blood pressure within a healthy range. This is because, the body adapts to this, by growing the heart muscle. You are then able to pump blood around your body with less force being exerted on the walls of your blood vessels & remain fitter.
5- Increases Muscular Endurance & Strength…
How it happens during spin classes?
During spin class the push & pull movement targets hamstrings, calves, quadriceps & glutes are constantly engaged.
Due to the continual load the leg muscles are subjected to, this builds up the type 1 muscle fibres ability to tolerate tension over time & therefore helps to build and improve muscular endurance in the legs.
During HIIT sections the type 2b muscle fibres in the leg muscles are also being used, which helps to build strength & explosive power.
Do you want to; burn fat, improve your posture & core strength, boost your mental health, get fitter & increase muscle endurance & strength?
Then spin class could be for you. It also has one other main advantage, it’s low impact making it ideal for you if you want to get fit & have all those benefits without jogging, running, jumping, jarring your joints.
