How to Become a Spin Instructor

Studio cycling is nothing new, but that's the beauty of it - it is one of those evergreen fitness branches that will always have a fanbase. It doesn't receive as much of a buzz as some of the other fitness trends we see, but whenever you take a peek into a studio cycling class, you can that it's full.

As we noted, studio cycling is one of those activities that will never go out of fashion. It rarely gets the hype like some other activities (CrossFit, for example), but it is always present, and the classes are full. So, if you are looking to invest your time and money into a specialisation that you know for sure is here to stay, studio cycling is ideal.

Here are some reasons why studio cycling classes remain popular:

• Great Cardio - studio cycling classes burn more calories than most other group fitness classes, and you will hardly find a better ratio of calories burned per hour than this.
• Very Safe - although cycling is a strenuous activity, and your clientele will be dripping sweat and gasping for air, the injury risks are minimal. Plus, cycling is famous for being low-impact and joint-friendly. That means that even overweight clients, as well as those with bad knees and ankles, can enjoy the benefits of studio cycling. Also, cycling is extremely simple to perform, and you won't have to teach your clients how to execute proper form. All you need to do is to adjust their spin bicycle seat and handlebar height and give them a few tips, and your clients will be good to go.
• Incredibly Fun - spin cycling classes are all about syncing with the music, which is very fun. However, because you as a coach are cycling too, you won't have to learn fancy and complicated choreographies as you see in some other classes, which will make your job a bit easier.
