Spin F.A.Q

Posted 15th June 2021 by Josh Schouten

 

Why Spin?

Firstly, we realised that spin has lost its way in London and we want to bring it back to the essence of riding a bike and doing it well. “Watts not weights” is the motto. If you’re after push-ups and curls come to MetCon because spin is all about riding. In true Momentum style, we will be fun and full of community love whilst getting you to work (very) hard through the 2 different class types, Burn and Perform.

Burn will be our general cycling class that will pay some attention to numbers (gears / RPM) but will predominantly focus on having fun and building up a sweat, a burn and an endorphin rush. This class will progress your fitness.

Perform will be where the focus is more on the numbers (watts / power). This will be a structured class with weekly and monthly programming cycles – similar to that of our gym classes. Each class will be goal-oriented to take you from A to B over a period of time while increasing your understanding of riding a bike and achieving progression over the long-term.

Secondly, our community over the past year has remained very strong. Instead of growing elsewhere we decided to bring more to the community we already have.

Thirdly, Josh wanted to show you his cycling skills, Jenna wanted to play some banging tunes on a sound system that works, and Geoff had always wanted to buy some mirror balls.
