| - If someone told me six months ago how much I would love riding a stationary bike, I would've thought they were crazy. Riding a bike sounds terrible... let alone one that doesn't go anywhere. Wow, was I wrong.
I came to my first class here about a month or so ago. I was a little scared and intimidated about it all. The people here are sooooo friendly. A worker immediately took me to my bike, made all the necessary adjustments and talked me through everything. Okay, I feel a little bit better now. Don't mind me. I'm just over here pedaling like I'm on a Sunday stroll.
If you've taken a traditional cycle class, this is like that only times a thousand. Or a million. I dunno, I'm a writer. Not great with the numbers. #math
Don't want anyone to see you? No fear, the room is pretty dark. The instructors rock a headset... channeling their inner Brittney. A great team here. They really push you hard and keep you motivated. Ladies, there's also a little bit of eye candy. Hello nurse. The music is awesome. If my feet weren't strapped into pedals, I'd probably dance. Club dance, not like stripper dance. They also break out some special theme classes. Super fun. Glow ride, Pearl Jame, 80s, etc.
They also offer Flybarre classes here. No bike. Yoga mats, weights, dance bar, bands, balls, etc. These classes work every part of your body. You'll wake up the next day with muscles hurting that you didn't even realize existed.
BONUS: You can reserve bikes and mats online ahead of time. This is great. Some fitness places you have to arrive 30 minutes early to get a spot. Some of the classes during peak times can fill up quickly, so sign up when they open registration on Sundays.
Another thing I love about this place (along with the fact it's clean, they have secure lockers and awesome Flywheel clothing/merchandise), is you can track your progress with each class. See how many miles you did, power level, calories burned. average speed.
Flywheel and team... I'm a huge fan.
