CARDIO
Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist
or someone looking for a great
cardio workout, we have it all in
our RPM studio. With great music
pumping and the group spinning as
one, you are sure to improve
your aerobic capacity, burn
calories and fat, and get fit.

New members frequently tell me that
they look inside the RPM studio and are
a bit intimidated by how hard everyone is
working – they feel like they won’t be able
to keep up. Here’s the good news: you are
in control when you take a cycle class. Your
speed and resistance are determined by
you. The reality is that beginners and regular
“spinners” can all work together to achieve
fitness goals. It doesn’t get better than that!
SPRINT™, our latest Les Mills
offering, is a HIIT class on the bike.
Your trained “coach” will take you
through your paces in an efficient
30 minutes. This intense training
will push your physical and mental
limits and is designed to give you
maximum results in minimum time,
all while building lean muscle mass
and training your body to burn fat for
hours post workout.
CLASS TYPES
Here’s a look at the differences between
each class type to help you decide where
to start and what to expect:
• Our “CYCLE” CLASSES are
created by each of our certified
and experienced instructors. They
carefully craft their own music playlist
and pair it with moves that work with
each track. You will climb, sprint, and
ride for endurance for about an hour.
• RPM™ is a Les Mills program that
takes you on a choreographed
journey including hills, speed work,
jumps, and more. Our highly trained
instructors will help you work through
the tough parts! You will draw on the
group’s energy and find your rhythm
in the music. Most RPM classes last
about 50 minutes.
•
VIRTUAL CYCLING is a terrific
option for anyone who isn’t able to
attend a scheduled class. You pick
the ride you want to take from the
kiosk outside of the studio (choose
from scenic rides or class formats of
various lengths) and cycle when it is
convenient for you. Invite your HAC
friends to join in.
I encourage you to come in and give indoor cycling a try. Always let your instructor know if
you are new to class, and he or she will make sure you are set up correctly on the bike. Join
us and remember: it’s your workout; you are in con trol. Have fun, smile, burn away stored fat
and calories, and let those exercise endorphins kick in! I look forward to seeing you in the
RPM studio.
