Here’s an fun and educational drill to try with your riders and three killer songs to kick it up a notch! It’s important that your riders get a feel for what different rpm’s feel like and that they have some time to play with the resistance at each rpm, especially if you are using bikes with no readout.

Movie soundtracks are great places to find fresh new tunes for your cycling classes. If you want to incorporate this type of music into your classes but you’re not sure where to start, Hans Zimmer is your guy.

Use this classic song when you’re keeping the work in the saddle to take your riders from a hill, to a flat road to an all-out sprint! Just like the lyrics suggest, “….we never ever do nothing nice and easy.

Class Builder now using Spotify Music Playlists!
Chrispins sent me a note earlier this week about how the iPhone/iPad Class Builder App will now work with Spotify playlists. Fantastic! I’ve been waiting for someone to create an Instructor App that uses Spotify. I have a sort of love-hate relationship with the Spotify App… I love the huge selection of music available for $10 a month, sharing playlists and especially the cross fade – it has my playlists sounding like a
