Thoughts from the Instructor Bike…Post #6 – If you don’t do it outside…

Thoughts from the Instructor Bike…Post #6 – If you don’t do it outside…

flechasirottisuissestage_2466063

 

I'm getting so tired of hearing indoor cycling instructors say “If you don't do it on a bike outside you shouldn't do it on a bike inside”.   This statement is repeated over and over again on social media.  In Facebook groups like Indoor Cycling Instructors battles will rage on for days about topics like weights on the bike, tap backs or appropriate RPM ranges.  Often these movements will be labeled “Dangerous”.  I often wonder if the instructors who say “If you don't do it on a bike outside you shouldn't do it on a bike inside” have ever ridden a bike outside.  I can think of no more dangerous activity than riding outside.  Cyclist literally put their lives at risk ever ride.

This video below shows how “safe” riding outside can be.

 

 

Something else I find interesting is the same person who screams “If you don't do it on a bike outside you shouldn't do it on a bike inside!!!!!” will in the very next post ask if anyone has a suggestion for a hill climbing song with a BPM of 72.  Hmmm, when I ride outside I don't listen to music because that IS dangerous and I certainly wouldn't limit myself to riding at one specific RPM.  So, if this instructor really believed “If you don't do it on a bike outside you shouldn't do it on a bike inside” then they shouldn't be using music during indoor cycling class!

I teach indoor cycling at multiple facilities in the Denver area but I spend most of my work week at Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club.  Greenwood is my “home club”.  This is where I'm a personal trainer, teach indoor cycling, HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) classes, CVI (Cardio Vascular Interval Training) classes, I've been a Master Swim Team coach, a Triathlon Team coach,  I'm one of the Race Directors for the annual Tri-Our-Village Kids Triathlon and the Roadless Century Coach and Lead for the annual Roadless Ride fundraiser to benefit Brent's Place.

Greenwood is considered one of the best athletic clubs in the country.  They do a lot of things VERY well.  The facility is kept immaculately clean, they have the latest and greatest equipment and vast and diverse group exercise program with some of the best instructors in the Denver area.  I could go on and on about what they do well, but there are plenty of facilities that are clean, big and have plenty of offerings, let's talk about something they do differently.

Greenwood is the only facility that I have every worked in that has, PAID, semi annual ALL STAFF meetings. There are some things that cannot be expressed in an e-mail or newsletter.  There is something powerful and unifying about the ENTIRE staff gathering TOGETHER hearing the EXACT SAME message coming directly from the facility owner and general manger.

Our first All Staff meeting of 2016 took place last Thursday.  The most exciting announcement, for me, was replacement of  our Spinner Blade Ion indoor cycling bikes with the new Stages SC3 bike.  This will take our, already stellar, indoor cycling program to a whole new level!!!!!!!  I felt the most memorable segment of this meeting was when the video I've posted below was played.  Watch, listen and know that your actions are powerful.
