Training - Thrs 14-Jan (Gytes, Peebles - Spin Class)

With the icy/slushy conditions underfoot, we have been neglecting our speed work of late.

So for a bit of variety and to get the high heart rate interval sessions started again, we have arranged a 'Spin' class as the Gytes leisure centre.

Session lasts 45 mins, starting at 6:00pm - would advise getting there ~5:45pm to allow time to get organised. Cost is £3-70.
The class will be made available to the public also, so feel welcome to invite any pals who might be interested.

If this goes successfully and there is enough interest (need minimum of six people for the Gytes to lay on a class), we can plan some further/similar activities in the future....

What is a 'Spin' Class..?

The session is on fixed exercise bikes, led by an instructor. Typically after a warmup, you will be doing high intensity reps (eg. simulating sprinting on a bike at a high cadence, or simulating climbing a hill where there is a high resistance and you need to get 'out the saddle') intended to ramp your heart rate and get a high aerobic workout. The session, as per all interval training, can be as hard or as easy as you want to make it...

What do I need to wear..?

Nothing special - standard running kit is fine, or whatever you would normally wear in the gym. Bring a towel though as you will get sweaty , and a bottle of water...
