Pedal Power
“4…3…2…1, LETS GO”, “There’s a reason you came through those doors”, “This is a challenge by choice”, “Let’s go, push yourself. You can do this!” and many more are just some of the inspirational and motivating quotes you will hear when attending a group fitness cycling class in the University Fitness studio. The group fitness instructors (in general too) that teach cycling are amazing! They motivate you to do YOUR best and help you achieve your mile goal, calorie goal, and anything else that you set for yourself. This class is deigned to push yourself to your limit for your cardiovascular fitness. Each class you attend can be with different instructors as well as different fitness/workout plans that are already set up and created for you. This is a high intensity class that was everyone to walk out those doors feeling better than before.
For myself, I started going to cycling for the first time this year when the indoor ironman started in order for me to get a good chunk of my miles in. When I first started going, I would get around 12 miles to then an average of 15 miles. My most recent class, I earned 21.6 miles. I really enjoy going to cycling because of the motivation the instructors send out, the upbeat and motivating music, and the fact that each cycling class I have been too has different techniques, styles, and lessons to get miles in. Each class and instructor make the class so different and so much fun that I will continue to go to cycling even after the indoor ironman is over.
Group indoor cycling is located in the University Fitness Center in the basement of Wells hall. A water bottle is required to come to class, and it is recommended to bring a sweat towel to wipe away all the hard work. You can call and guarantee yourself a bike at (262)-472-1260. If coming to cycling, it is recommended to get there around 5-10 minutes prior to the class starting to check in and get ready for the class. There are three one-hour cycling classes a week along with two forty-five-minute cycling classes a week. Cycling is offered every Sunday, Monday and Tuesday at 5:30pm as well as Wednesday and Thursday at 5:30pm for forty-five minutes. If you want an awesome, challenging and motivating workout, this is the class for you! Below is the group fitness schedule link and the group fitness cycling class description with a mini video, so check those out! Group fitness is challenge by choice, so make the choice and come to group indoor cycling!
