Spinning Classes: Benefits of Spinning

Spinning Classes are hugely popular exercise classes and one of the best activities for exercise. I had my first spinning workout at a fitness industry trade show when it was a new program just being introduced. Although I had never done it, I had a great time and could immediately see that it was a great program. I was right on this prediction, because spinning is still around more than 15 years later and still going strong.

What is Spinning?

Spinning is a branded group exercise program using specialized stationary bikes led by a certified instructor. The founders took the concept of indoor cycling and elevated it to a never-before-seen level. Spinning classes are available at most health clubs and also available on DVD for use at home.[hmtad name=”In Content” align=”left”]

  • Increased metabolism
  • Easy on the joints
  • Intensity can be adjusted for all abilities
  • Good way for cyclists to stay in shape during the winter
  • Faster cyclists can’t leave you behind (it’s stationary, get it?)
