About this course

This course is an introduction to the discipline of Kinesiology through indoor cycling, which includes a historical examination of indoor cycling/spinning. The cycling program is an individual-paced, competitive group-training program designed to develop cardiovascular fitness at higher intensity levels. Using interval training, students will improve aerobic and anaerobic energy systems. Our student will develop core endurance and strength using various equipment.
