An indoor cycling craze popular at many fitness centers, spinning provides a high-performance cardiovascular and strength-training workout using adjustable levels of resistance. Employing energetic music and visualization techniques, instructors take riders through courses that simulate climbs and jumps common during outside rides.
Typical costs: |
- Classes cost on average between $15 and $25 each for drop-in rates, depending on the length of the class and location of the studio or gym. Classes are highest in urban areas, but can be as low as $10 in smaller cities and at university fitness centers.
- Many studios and gyms offer better deals if riders buy classes in bundles. The more you buy, the cheaper the average class costs. A grouping of 10 sessions costs on average around $175 and 20 classes cost around $325.
- Some fitness centers offer classes for as low as $10 -- or even free -- as part of a membership package. But because of the affordability of these classes, getting in can be competitive. Reservations are often required at least 24 hours ahead of time.

What should be included: |
- Instructors set the pace of rides, but riders can adjust their own resistance level based on their ability.
- The official Spinning site offers more advice on what to expect[1] during class.
- Discounts:
- If riders are not interested in committing to a gym or studio membership, many university fitness centers that provide free spinning classes to staff and students welcome outside riders for an average of $10 per class.
Additional costs: |
- Picking the right shoe is important because riders will tire more easily if they are not wearing comfortable and flexible shoes that encourage good circulation. Nike offers a wide variety of high-performance shoes[2] for $100 to $300.
- Team Estrogen sells several dozen high-end shorts for women[3] in black, pink, red and other color combinations from $80 to $125.
- Amazon sells a wide variety of monitors [4] by Reebok and other brands for around $50.
Shopping for spinning classes: |
