Do you like cycling, but don't want to be dependent on the Dutch weather? Then spinning is up your alley! During this intensive workout it is all about building up stamina and burning fat. Using a stationary exercise bike with a weighted flywheel, varying the load and different sitting and standing positions, you will train the heart, lungs and leg muscles.
You can take part in Spinning lessons almost every day. You cycle at different speeds, sitting and standing, with rousing music to keep you going. The changes in speed and posture have a positive effect on your heart, lungs, leg muscles and metabolism. You change the gears yourself, so you can make the workout as difficult (or easy) as you like. Spinning is the ideal quick fix if you want to improve your fitness level or burn some fat in a relatively short space of time.
