SPINNING is an aerobic exercise that takes place on a specially
designed stationary bicycle. As you pedal, motivating music plays
and the instructor guides you through a series of hills, sprints and
jumps. During the class you vary your pace -- sometimes pedaling as
fast as you can, other times cranking up the tension and pedaling
slowly from a standing position. This helps you to focus inwardly
and work on your mind as well as your body. Spinning burns serious
calories (about 500 in 45 minutes) and offers an awesome aerobic
workout that makes your heart pump fast. It also tones your quads,
outer thigh muscles abs and arms like nobody's business! And
although you follow the general instructions of the Spinning
teacher, you are in control when it comes to your pace. You can
finish a Spin class, regardless of your fitness level, simply by
adjusting your pace or the tension knob on the bike!
