A new study published in the International Journal of Sports Medicine shows that amateurs don’t get any added benefits from high cadence cycling, outdoors. On a long ride, it can lead to early fatigue. However, when riding indoors, a high cycling cadence can help reduce the stress and strain put on your leg muscles, allowing you to ride for a longer time without developing fatigue. The whole idea behind high cadence cycling is that your muscles contract more frequently, but not as intensely. This online Spinning class with lots of high cadence drills will help you focus on an incremental increase of cadence, coupled with the slight decrease of resistance (gear). I know you’ve got the need for speed, so let’s flip those feet fast!

Just listen and ride. Take away one sense and be amazed with how heightened the other senses become. In this case, we remove the visual component (no need to look at the screen) and the heightened sense will be your hearing.
You’ll be so focused that, even for those of you that don’t normally hear a song’s tempo, you’ll find your legs pumping like cylinders to the beat. We even offer a visual guide to help you grab the beat if you need it. If you look at the screen in the first 30 seconds of each song, you’ll see a music note – each time it flashes, you should feel your right leg come over the top. It’s just a good gauge to help you pick up the beat, then go back to just listening.
This ride is designed to be a moderate intensity ride, where your level of perceived exertion should begin at about a 6 out of 10, and max out at 8.5 out of 10. It’s great for a “Just break a sweat” day, or even a recovery ride. So listen up and enjoy the ride.
