Spinning Welcome!

I had such a great experience at Spin today at O2 Modern Fitness in Tucson!  I haven't been to the studio in years, but I walked in and immediately spied a friendly face!  It's a wonderful experience to walk into a gym or studio and feel welcome!  It's not so many years ago, stepping into a gym would have intimidated me so much, I would have stayed home.  I hope I bring that same welcoming feel to Cherry Wellness and 360 Fit.

I had a great endurance ride and it was very challenging.  Recently I've been doing a lot of interval rides  this was a welcome change and reminded me how beneficial an endurance cardio workout can be.  As many of us focus on HIIT, TABATA, and other interval training style methods we may forget the benefits of tempo or endurance workouts.  Tempo workouts can increase your overall speed.  They also help to condition your entire cardiovascular system.  I really appreciated the workout as it's been over a week since my last spin and this was a super way to return to the bike without feeling overwhelmed.

I'm planning to bring some endurance rides as well as other cardio skills back with me for my clients as well as my own training!
