What Is "Spinning"

If You Have Heard This Term Before, It Might Have Been A Class Offered At Your Gym.

Spinning is a unique indoor stationary cycling program created in the 1980s by world-class cyclist Jonathan Goldberg, a.k.a. "Johnny G.". The Spinning program brings the elements of athletic training to people of all ages, and fitness levels; and is NOT just a "hard-core" fitness program for elite athletes. Instead, this efficient, high-energy group-exercise integrates music, camaraderie and visualization in a complete mind/body exercise routine. Participants use specially designed Johnny G Spinner? stationary bikes.

The Spinning program combines heart rate training, and a series of five movements, to give participants an unparalleled workout. Johnny designed the program with the understanding that participants have different exercise needs and goals. He incorporated the use of personal heart rate monitors to deliver the most effective and intelligent training regimen to these diverse riders. Consequently, the Spinning program centers around a series of training sessions called Energy Zones?, which include Endurance, Strength, Interval, Race Day and Recovery.

Finally, certified Spinning instructors undergo a rigorous and comprehensive training regimen that focuses on both athletic and motivational coaching techniques. They also receive extensive safety training, as well as ongoing continuing education courses to update them on the latest developments in the Spinning program.
