Hello,
I was wondering if shorts are highly recommended, would pants be okay to wear to the cycling class?
Cycling shorts are recommended but Exercise pants are okay to wear to class but they should not be too long or loose fitting.
For clothing, shoot for a breathable short sleeve shirt. If you don’t have the “cycling outfit” then wear tennis shoes or running shoes, shorts or perhaps sweat pants, and bring a face towel. Definitely bring a water bottle, and plan on drinking it during the class. It’s a lot of fun – you’ll love it!
I am worried about being able to keep up in this class – is it filled with super-athletes that intimidate the less fit?
We get a combination of people in our classes. We do have some serious riders and athletes, however we also have a lot of people that come for general fitness, variety and weight loss. The great thing about indoor cycling is that YOU are in charge of YOUR ride. You can modify anything at any time. For example, if the instructor is leading the class on a steep hill climb, you have the option to keep the resistance low or reduce it at any time and no one else will know! I would suggest you start off by trying our new class for beginners. It starts on Tuesday, Oct. 20th at 5:15pm. It is a 30 min. class and all of the basics of indoor cycling will be covered including bike set-up, safety, intensity, form, and variations (climbing, intervals, jumping, etc). Another option is the Weds. Noon-12:45pm Express class which is 45 minutes long. All of our other classes run for one-hour, so the two I mentioned would be the best place to start. It is a lot of fun and a great workout. Be sure to bring a water bottle!
I am assuming you cannot “pre-register” for the cycle burn class? So, if you show up at 5:15am and the class is full, you need to come in at another time?
You are correct. It is first come, first serve.
