Modern workouts for modern people: indoor cycling, aqua biking, and half-hour rituals. Ditch those excuses now!
Aqua Spin
If you’re recovering from injury, or a pregnant mum-to-be (congrats!), here’s the safe workout option you’ve been looking for: Aqua Spin. With this new solution, exercise is no sweat – literally. Get pedal-happy in a private pool and allow buoyancy to work for you: bounce yourself to fitness as the cool water cushions your movements, and work out with good support for your back and joints.
Aqua Spin, p. 83358299. Aqua Spin classes are held at several fixed locations. To book a class, see website or visit their Facebook page.
Athlete Lab
Bad weather, lightning alerts, and poor traffic conditions? Take it indoors and get your bike work done. You don’t just see yourself moving on screen, you feel it too – pedal harder to go up that steep slope, or relax when you go downhill. Try out amateur routes or go pro with international circuits. With Athlete Lab’s high-tech equipment and qualified cycling (not spin) coaches, working out indoors feels like the real thing. If you prefer to use your own bike, bring it in and they’ll fix it up to their equipment for you. Psst – if you don’t know how to cycle, this is a good and safe place to start!
