Stationary cycling classes are a great way to improve lower body strength and aerobic endurance as you are coached through various stationary cycling rides - i.e., rolling hills, steep climbs, flats, sprints, interval drills - anaerobic threshold and aerobic endurance, and speed play. The different types of rides, set to great music to motivate you all through the ride will rotate during the month. Check out the schedule of rides posted monthly outside the cycling studio or on the website. A water bottle and towel are required for Cycle classes.
cycle 45 & 60 - A high-powered 45-minutes or 60-minute class to challenge your endurance!
cycle + core - Get two workouts in one when you ride for 45 minutes and then follow the ride with midsection toning for the remainder of class – a great cross training tool for everyone.

Class Formats:
Cycle Calorie Burn (Aerobic Strength & Endurance): Build your stamina while working to improve heart and lung development (65-85%MHR). Workouts will straddle the region where the body switches from the lower steady range (aerobic) to a greater effort in the high range (anaerobic). Rides can be done in seated or standing climb and as a steady state (long slow distance) or long intervals.
Power Play (Anaerobic Threshold): Challenge yourself with intervals of hard work and recovery periods (65-92%MHR), strengthening the heart and getting a high calorie burn. Interval training develops your ability to recover quickly after work efforts. Rides will incorporate fast rolling hills, flats and sprints and medium to heavy resistance loads.
Cardio Climb (Strength, Hills and Power): Improve leg strength and power by confronting repeats of hill climbs combined with recovery periods.
Speed Demon (Speed Play): Go fast to be fast. Gain a feeling for playing with speed in the context of a long easy ride as you combine intense speed bursts (anywhere between 30 second to 5 minute) with the 45 to 60 minute continuous ride over varied terrain.
