Andrew Clayton over at Pedal Studio in the UK ask me to promote Spinning® for our heroes, which is a huge fundraiser for injured UK soldiers that features a number of Spinning Master Instructors including Mark Tickner and Michelle Colvin (links go to their Podcast interviews)
On 28th July 2011 we will be hosting Canary Wharf's largest ever Spinning® event to raise money for the Help for Heroes charity. We're giving you a unique opportunity to join 800 other people and ride with the Spinning® team from Star Trac Fitness.
You’ll be able to measure your efforts with MYZONE- a brand new state of the art telemetry system utilizing your heart rate.
50 minute classes will be running from 11am to 7pm in Montgomery Square, right in the heart of Canary Wharf.
Nuffield Health is proud to support this important cause in aid of our wounded soldiers and look forward to seeing you there.
Places are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
It's official – AFAA CEU's will be available at the ICI/PRO Conference!
Dear Continuing Education Provider:
Congratulations! You have been accepted as a 2011 AFAA Authorized Continuing Education Provider. Your professionalism and educational programs will enable AFAA certiï¬ed instructors to earn quality continuing education units through the AFAA Provider Program.
In a typical fitness conference “sponsorship”, Company A pays Event Promoter B a bunch of money to to be part of the event. That sounds good, but if you have been following us for any length of time you know that we don't always do what's “typical” here at ICI/PRO.
So when Chuck Cali from Zoning Fitness offered to become a sponsor of this year's conference I said; “only if your sponsorship will add value to the Instructors who attend!”
Chuck's response was “how about if we give the next 75 Instructors* who register a free $80.00 Blink Heart Rate Monitor?”
I love my Blink and see it as an excellent choice for the Club Athletes we teach each week. It's the perfect companion to the 2 Threshold / 3 Zone Heart Rate system we have been talking about.
I have officially designated this as ICI/PRO Conference Registration Week!
Why this week?
Because when I looked at registrations from last year, I see that the 7 days that fell 13 weeks before the conference had the highest percentage of new registrations, besides the opening week.
Amy and I can't believe that our “Baby” Carly is all grown up! We spent yesterday afternoon trying to decide which of these pictures would make the cut as her Senior yearbook photo.
In case you're wondering she looks most like my mother. If you ask her where she got that great hair, she'll say from her daddy. I just wish she hadn't taken all of it 🙁
Tom Scotto is the consummate professional in everything he does. As an athlete, cyclist, coach, business partner, husband and family man, Tom applies this professionalism to all aspects of his life.
And Tom is applying this same sense of professional commitment to his preparations for the sessions he will be presenting at this year's ICI/PRO conference.
Watch the video below to get a sense for the training Tom is putting himself through this year.
Tom is excited about ICI/Pro's second conference and will be presenting a number of session including an 8-hour Heart Zones® Training, Ride with Live Music and Biomechanics, Master the Music, Explosive Training and Muscle Release workshops. It is only a few months away and Tom needs time to prepare.
